The Victoria Palace is built on the site of one of London's first music halls and is a vast, classical building. Opposite Victoria Station, the theatre has a large capacity and was plagued with a string of musical flops until the 2005 hit Billy Elliot. After that, the theatre closed for a multi-million pound refurbishment, opening in 2017 with the crowd puller Hamilton which continues to run to a packed out house.
Built in a traditional style across three levels, the auditorium can feel a little overwhelming due to the relatively small size of the stage. Each level is quite well-raked and curves around each balcony, giving different levels of visibility throughout. Prices vary accordingly and it is worth knowing how much you wish to spend against how close you wish to be.
Due to the rake of the stage, some restricted view seats in the Stalls offer great value for money. You may miss out on the actors feet, but you will not get so close for so little anywhere else in the West End!
Premium seats are towards the centre of the Stalls. In our opinion these are better than those in the Dress Circle. Mid Stalls seats offer a generally better view of the stage.
Best seat in the house in my opinion. Full view of the stage. You don’t miss anything of the action. Love that seat and row A. Would definitely book that seat again. Could do with a bit more legroom but I was fine. Tall person might struggle. More

I found the new seats very uncomfortable. Hard upright backs and very short armrests. Little legroom. I had a very large head in front of me and spent the entire performance moving from side to side to catch the performers. More

Amazing seats only thing I'd mention is we wanted to sit and chill in the interval but the entire row got out and in and as there is no middle walkway they all came through our way so we had to keep getting up. You will miss about 10 seconds of the performance... More
