Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Broadway sensation Hamilton, which will open the extensively refurbished Victoria Palace Theatre at the end of 2017, has announced tickets will go on sale in January 2017.

With excitement building for the West End transfer of the hugely anticipated, record-breaking musical, fans will be excited to learn that those who have registered for the priority on-sale will be able to purchase tickets from 16 January 2017, ahead of the general on-sale on 30 January 2017. Previews commence in November 2017.

Registration for priority on sale is still open until 31 October 2016 at the show’s website.

Producer Cameron Mackintosh said of the news: “Jeffrey Seller and I are delighted to announce the on sale dates next January for tickets to Lin-Manuel’s eagerly awaited London production of Hamilton.  We have already started the casting process and are very excited by the tremendous diverse talents that we are already seeing for the production which opens at the Victoria Palace in just over a year’s time, December 2017. 

“The recently acquired Victoria Palace Theatre is currently in the process of a major renovation and expansion that will bring it into the 21st century so that it can offer the public the same mix of glamour and comfort enjoyed by my other West End theatres. I couldn’t be more thrilled that the brilliant Hamilton, already acclaimed as one of the landmark musicals of the 21st Century, is going to re-launch the much loved theatre on its next 100 years.”

Having scooped 11 Tony Awards including Best Musical, as well as the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and the 2016 Grammy Award for Best Musical Theatre Album, Hamilton’s box office record-smashing run on Broadway has fans eagerly awaiting its arrival in London.

Telling the story of America’s Founding Father Alexander Hamilton, a West Indies immigrant who became George Washington’s right-hand man during the Revolutionary War, Hamilton’s score fuses hip-hop, jazz, blues, rap, R&B and Broadway to tell of a leading figure at a crucial juncture for America.
