Kings Place Concessions Tickets

We want to ensure that people who may be struggling financially to purchase a ticket can still enjoy visiting Kings Place. Concessions tickets are a 50% discount on selected Kings Place events, as agreed with the promoter or artist. The concession ticket buyer can choose any available seat, and take advantage of the most expensive or the cheapest seats.

Concessions tickets are accessible for people on the following criteria:

  • Pension Credit
  • Universal Credit
  • Disability Benefit
  • Income Support or Job Seekers allowance
  • Students.

All events with concessions tickets will have them listed when purchasing, and can be bought in the same way as normal tickets. A limited number of concessions tickets will be allocated on selected events (if the ticket type does not show in the booking pathway, it means they have all been sold). Please note that proof of eligibility may be requested at the venue.

If you are in receipt of disability benefit you may be eligible for our access scheme.

Please get in touch if you have any queries regarding the above at info@kingsplace.co.uk

Concessions FAQ

What does Pension Credit mean? Am I eligible?

Pension Credit is not the same as a State Pension, which is not covered by the Kings Place concession scheme. Pension Credit is a grant from the government gives you extra money to help with your living costs if you’re over State Pension age and on a low income. To find out more about what Pension Credit is, visit https://www.gov.uk/pension-credit.

What does Universal Credit mean? Am I eligible?

Universal Credit is the new combined benefit system that covers multiple previous benefits, including Child Tax Credit, Housing Benefit, Income Support, income-based Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA), income-related Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), and Working Tax Credit. You should know if you’re in receipt of Universal Credit, but if you haven’t yet migrated onto it and are on one of the previous benefit pathways, you are still eligible for the concessions scheme. Personal Independence Payment (PIP) and Carer’s Allowance sits outside of Universal Credit, however recipients of both are still eligible for the Kings Place concessions scheme. To find out more about Universal Credit and assess if you’re on it, visit https://www.gov.uk/universal-credit

What does Disability Benefit mean? Am I eligible?

Disability Benefit is a catch-all term we’ve used to describe the following benefits:

  • Personal Independence Payment (PIP) or Disability Living Allowance (DLA)
  • Attendance Allowance
  • ‘new style’ Employment and Support Allowance (ESA)

If you are in receipt of any of these benefits you are eligible for the Kings Place concessions scheme. For more information on the individual types of benefit please visit https://www.gov.uk/financial-help-disabled

Please note that if you are disabled, you will be eligible for our Access Scheme at Kings Place which offers additional benefits including a more personalised experience as well as essential companion tickets.

What does Income Support/Job Seekers allowance mean?

Job Seekers Allowance is a government benefit to help people while they are out of work and looking for roles. You should know if you are currently in receipt of it, however further information is here: https://www.gov.uk/jobseekers-allowance

Income Support is an old type of benefit which is being phased into Universal Credit. You should know if you are on this benefit, but it may well have been phased into general Universal Credit payments. For more information visit https://www.gov.uk/income-support

What does ‘student’ cover?

To qualify for our student concessions tickets, you simply need to be studying at school, college or university and have some identification to prove this. If you are under 30, Kings Place also runs a scheme for £8.50 tickets which you’ll be able to access for some of our shows. This offer doesn’t work in conjunction with the concessions scheme, however you can assess yourself which tickets are cheaper and which you’d prefer to choose.  https://www.kingsplace.co.uk/whats-on/under-14s-under-30s-tickets/ 

Why can't I see an option to book a concessions ticket?

A limited number of concessions tickets will be allocated on selected events. To purchase, please choose the ‘Concession ticket’ price type when selecting your ticket(s). If the ticket type does not show in the booking pathway, it means they have all been sold.
