Moacir A. PontiFebruary 28, 2016What an amazing place. The sound is clear and there is a good view even from farther seats. The tickets are affordable and there are café's inside the complex. Had a great evening there.- Chris ReesSeptember 26, 2016Great theatre, really comfortable seats. For those who find walking difficult go for rows R or S in the stalls, as basically no steps used.
Ezryn ZarofJanuary 5, 2017Watched Hamlet back in 2015 and I remember really loving this theatre! The sounds travelled well around the room, and the overall ambience felt very grand.
Good seating, legroom, even the queues for the ladies are ok--so much more comfortable than most West-end venues.

Brooke LouiseNovember 5, 2021Love this place but crikey the prices are out of control. £8.50 for really repugnant Sauv Blanc. £11.50 for three very average cold salads. Quite cheeky really.
Alvaro RodriguezAugust 7, 2014One of my favourites. Sound is incredibly good and the cheap seats offer a good view
Julia SandlerAugust 24, 2016Big cinemas, slightly cheaper tickets that other cinemas... comfy seats!
Alexandra ANovember 29, 2013Vulcano Choir was a great! The Barbican puts on very good shows, concerts and theatre pieces.
Christian WDecember 27, 2013Get day seat tickets for 10GBP. Come at least 45min before box office opens
You can enter via Silk Street and skip the Barbican faff altogether.

Stephen DennisonSeptember 2, 2011Concrete windowless walls thicker than Hitler's bunker, so don't expect a mobile signal inside.- Stephen DennisonSeptember 2, 2011Be sure to check out the record breaking urinal. Nothing quite like seeing 25 men side by side peeing
