Companion Tickets

We’ll always provide one free ticket for the companion of patrons with access requirements. On your first booking, please call us on 020 3039 3330 or email boxoffice@poplarunion.com and we’ll ensure that every future order you make with us automatically includes a complimentary companion ticket.

Pay What You Feel Tickets

We try and offer a Pay What You Feel ticket option for events where possible. To keep in line with our core values, we acknowledge the financial barriers some people may have. By offering this tiered pricing structure, it allows people to select the amount they feel comfortable paying, ensuring our events are accessible to all. Ticket prices range from £0 – £25 so just select the amount you want and can pay; if money is tight, go for a small donation or even a free ticket. If you’re able to pay a bit more, this will contribute to the artists’ fee and allow us to continue offering this price structure, keeping our events and activities affordable for everyone. And if you can pay even a bit more than that, you might just be buying a ticket for someone else!

Getting Better All the Time

We’re always looking to improve! If you have any specific requirements that are not listed or have questions or suggestions, please get in touch and we will try and accommodate as best we can.

Relaxed performances

A relaxed performance is intended for audience members who may benefit from a more relaxed environment, including those with an autistic spectrum condition or anyone with sensory and communication disorders. Babies are also welcome to relaxed performances. Changes such as lighting the room so it’s not too dark, sound levels being reduced, allowing audience members to come in and out of the room, and providing a chillout area for those who need it, are all elements that help reduce anxiety and create a calm atmosphere. If you have any questions about relaxed performances, please get in touch.
