Good value seats

Seats in the first few rows of the front stalls are often priced similarly to seats in the rear stalls. These cheaper seats offer an intimate experience, allowing audience members to feel fully immersed in the performance.

Premium seats

The seats with the best overall views in the Royal Festival Hall are situated in the front stalls, namely in the centre of rows H-M. Seats in the sides of the front stalls are often priced lower than the centre seats, but still offer an intimate, unobstructed view of the stage.

Seating is raked so the view is pretty good unless you’re unlucky enough to have someone especially tall sit in front of you.
