Booking info and opening hours

Gala Durham

We want to make your experience with Gala Durham as trouble-free as possible, so below are some notes we hope will be useful. If you have any questions at all about your visit, our Box Office will be pleased to assist.

Opening hours

Box Office

Tuesday to Saturday: 11.00am to 8.30pm

Gala Lounge

Tuesday to Saturday: 11.00am to 3.00pm

Seating and pricing

For Gala Durham Productions and some other shows, our auditorium will be split into different price bands with a range of prices based on where we feel the optimum experience will be. We believe there should be accessible priced tickets for all, so by booking early, you can secure the best price.

We love having the front of the auditorium full for every show. To ensure the best experience for our audiences and actors, some seats are not offered for sale until seats towards the front of the theatre are sold.

Disability access seats will always be set at the lowest price and carer/guardian tickets will remain free. The booking process for disability access seats will remain the same by contacting our Box Office on 03000 266 600.

We are committed to working with our promoters to provide Gala Members with priority booking to ensure that they have access to the cheapest tickets before anyone else. Find out more and sign-up to our membership scheme here.

Bookings can be made in person at the Box Office, by telephone, or through this website. Please note, tickets booked online, or by telephone include a £2 transaction charge.

Group reservations

We can reserve group bookings of 10 or more. These reservations must be paid at least two months before the show. If you wish to make a group reservation, please contact our Box Office on 03000 266 600.

Concessions

We offer concessionary tickets for selected events – please check at time of booking, and proof may be required upon ticket collection. Only one concession applies.

Family Friendly

Gala Durham aspires to make all of our customers welcome, no matter how small, and we really hope that our younger visitors become regulars at our theatre and cinema. In consideration of our audience and performers, we just ask that those under the age of three are only admitted to shows aimed at the very young. If in doubt, you can check with Box Office. For those under one year old, babes-in-arms tickets are available for selected shows.

Payment Methods

We accept all major credit and debit cards (except American Express), cash (in person only), cheque (with a valid cheque card), and Gala Durham Gift Vouchers.

Gift Vouchers

We sell our own Gala Durham Gift Vouchers redeemable on any of our screenings or live performances, and available in any value. Buy for friends or family, by simply clicking below to add these to your basket.

Your Tickets

To help us do our bit for the environment, we would love you to use our eticketing option. We send the tickets directly to your inbox, and you present the tickets to our staff on your mobile phone. But should you need to, the etickets can also be printed off, or you can collect your tickets from Box Office.

Refunds and exchanges

You can exchange your tickets for another performance up to 48 hours before the show you have booked if you are no longer able to attend the performance or film and your booking is not greater than ten tickets for a fee of £1 per ticket. Unless an event is cancelled, all tickets are non-refundable.

For groups over ten people, tickets are non-refundable or exchangeable.
