Olivier Awards
The Olivier Awards 2026 with Cunard took place on Sunday 12 April at the Royal Albert Hall in London, hosted by Nick Mohammed. The ceremony will shine a spotlight on the last 50 years of the awards, with amazing performances from the biggest and brightest shows, a dazzling array of stars and special moments to celebrate our 50th anniversary.
Performances this year include Evita, Into The Woods, Paddington The Musical, Phantom of the Opera, The Producers, Shucked, The Unlikely Pilgrimage Of Harold Fry and Wicked.
You can watch the show on BBC iPlayer or listen again to a special BBC Radio 2 show hosted by Jo Whiley on BBC Sounds.
Established in 1976, the Olivier Awards celebrate the world-class status of London theatre and are Britain’s most prestigious stage honours. The awards were previously known as the Society of West End Theatre Awards (or SWET Awards!), before being renamed in 1984 after Laurence Olivier, in recognition of his contribution to British theatre both as an actor and a director.
Stream last year’s full ceremony, as well as performances and speeches from the last decade, on the Official London Theatre YouTube channel.
