Theatre and shows

The Opera House & Palace Theatres have introduced Ambassador Experiences that you can add to your show ticket bookings.  Ideal for birthday celebrations, hen parties, or just to make your event that little extra special.  Ambassador experiences that include VIP Lounge Entry are limited in availability due to capacity of the lounge, so don’t delay and be disappointed.  Groups of 10 have the additional benefit of being able to reserve any if these packages, along with their tickets, which gives you time to collect money in from your group members.  Why not give them a try?
