Honouring the highest-level of West End theatre

Held annually and presented by the Society of London Theatre since 1976, the ceremony awards individuals and productions across musicals, dance, opera and plays from West End theatres and other top non-commercial theatres. The awards have been held at a variety of venues in London since premiering at the Hotel Café Royal. Other famous hosts have included the Royal Albert Hall in London and the Royal Opera House. The event has also been televised on and off since its inception. The Olivier Awards are equivalent in Britain to TV and film's BAFTA Awards or music's BRIT awards. In the world of theatre, they are on par with the Tony Awards and France's Molière Awards. Naturally, many stars of the screen and stage have graced this high-profile ceremony, with Lenny Henry, Imelda Staunton, Michael Ball and Jason Manford just a few of the names having hosted it. Anthony Hopkins, Cuba Gooding Jr., Eddie Izzard and even the late Princess Diana have presented individual awards to both up and coming stars and veteran stage actors and actresses. It truly is a magical evening of all things theatre! Get your Olivier Awards tickets today, they're available to buy or sell via StubHub now!
