Apollo Victoria Theatre | Best Seats for Wicked – Seating Guide & Ticket Deals

Expert Recommendations for Wicked at Apollo Victoria Theatre

As one of London's most iconic theatres, the Apollo Victoria offers spectacular views of Wicked from every section—but some seats deliver better value than others. Below is our expert breakdown of the best ticket options currently available, with insights on view quality, price positioning, and recommendations for different budgets.

Best Value Tickets (Great Views at Lower Prices)

• Dress Circle Row R ($110): Excellent mid-range option. While further back, the Dress Circle's steep rake ensures clear stage views over heads. Perfect for budget-conscious fans who still want a full-stage perspective.
• Stalls Row ZF ($126): Rear stalls but with surprisingly good sightlines. The Apollo Victoria's stadium-style seating means even back rows have elevated views. Great for avoiding neck strain from looking up at flying scenes.

Sweet Spot (Best Balance of Price & Location)

• Dress Circle Row O ($143): Prime central section with optimal viewing angles for appreciating the full spectacle. You'll catch all the aerial choreography details while being close enough to see facial expressions clearly.
• Dress Circle Row D ($177): Front Dress Circle offers arguably the theatre's best overall experience. Close enough for immersion but high enough to appreciate the full stage picture - especially important for Wicked's elaborate set pieces.

Higher Tier Options (Premium Locations)

• Stalls Row Q ($211): Mid-stalls provide an intimate, ground-level perspective ideal for connecting with performers. Slightly angled toward stage left - excellent for Elphaba-focused scenes.
• Stalls Row K ($243): Premium central stalls put you in the heart of the action. You'll feel immersed in the Emerald City atmosphere, though may miss some overhead details in the flying sequences.

Key View Differences Between Sections

• Dress Circle vs Stalls: The Circle provides better overall perspective for Wicked's aerial elements and large ensemble numbers, while Stalls offer more actor intimacy.
• Front vs Rear Rows: In the Stalls, rows A-J may require looking up during flying scenes, while rows K-Z provide more comfortable sightlines. Dress Circle maintains excellent views throughout.
• Side Seats: The Apollo Victoria's curved design means even side seats in Dress Circle maintain good angles, though extreme sides may slightly obscure wing scenes.

Our Top Recommendations

• Best Overall Value: Dress Circle Row O ($143) - combines excellent sightlines with mid-range pricing
• Premium Experience: Stalls Row K ($243) if you want to feel immersed in the magic
• Budget Pick: Dress Circle Row R ($110) offers remarkable quality for the price
• Group Bookings: The available blocks of 8 seats in Row R make this ideal for groups wanting coordinated seating

Special Considerations for Wicked

For this production specifically, we recommend prioritizing clear overhead views (Dress Circle or rear Stalls) to fully appreciate the flying sequences and elaborate Oz map projections. The Apollo Victoria's unique Art Deco interior also looks most impressive when viewed from the Dress Circle.
