The 1st of September is the day students head off to Hogwarts, and this year it’s 19 Years Later – the actual date that the epilogue of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows ends and our play, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, begins. To mark this date, we’re celebrating with an exclusive one-off FRIDAY 400! On Friday 4th August, at 4pm we’re releasing 400 tickets priced at £40 (£20 per part) for the performances of Parts One and Two on Friday the 1st September 2017. How to get the chance to purchase tickets
To enter the FRIDAY 400 please visit THIS PAGE on Friday 4th August. Tickets will be released when the countdown reaches zero at 4pm. From 3.30pm BST you will be able to click on the button below, where you will enter a virtual waiting room until tickets become available to buy from 4pm. At 4pm, customers in the waiting room will be selected at random for the opportunity to purchase a maximum of 2 tickets for both Parts One and Two. You can join the virtual waiting room any time from 3.30pm to 4pm, it will not affect your chances of being selected. The randomisation of the selection process is to enable the purchase of tickets to be fair to all our patrons, and to enable us to protect fans access to tickets, by removing bots and ticket touts. (Visit the link) It's probably worth looking here for seats at the same price known as the Friday Forty harrypottertheplay.com/uk/…on/ Theoretically tickets for both performances are available from £30, £40, £85, £115, £135, or £140 but when looking, the cheapest seats I could find were over £100 on any day
With regard to these tickets. They don't say where they are! The Palace Theatre has 1400 seats. Approximately 333 are in the balcony. Many seats there have restricted views. The next level is the 'Grand' Circle, where seats at the back will have a restricted view of the stage.
At most London theatres, the cheap seats with restricted views are sold off to ticket agencies etc as 'reduced price' seats to punters who generally don't seem to complain because they are cheaper than normal!

PS I didn't think I would like it as it doesn't include any? of the original cast for fairly obvious reasons! However, it's been very well reviewed, and, AFAICT is almost completely sold out!

This will attract scalpers, little effort and a chance to make an easy profit if you are randomly selected.

Seen this once, and going to see it again next month! It's a fantastic play, and the on stage magic blows you away! Only downside is it's a very very long play in an uncomfortable old theatre haha

I haven't seen it yet but tickets are readily available. Just go to the official website and click on Buy Tickets which takes you to the two official ticket sellers. They always receive returned tickets on a daily basis.

The ticket office allow you to return normal tickets for a £5 fee (I think £5/per ticket). I would phone them now to be honest.... It's incredibly late as it's now the same day But they might be able to re-sell to people outside the theatre.
