There is no bag ban in the theatre at The Rival. However, larger bags (other than handbags) and backpacks must be left in the staffed cloakroom before the performance.
New in 2023! Two steps down from the entrance is our brand new cloakroom, always manned during shows and concerts. You pay by swish or card.
The cloakroom opens 2.5 hours before the evening performance or one hour before matinee performances.
We have also built eight new guest toilets next to the cloakroom. In addition, both our restrooms in lower Watson and in the Cocktail Bar will be completely renovated in summer 2023.
In total there are 21 toilets and one toilet (on the ground floor) for guests with disabilities.
No. Rival has no access to tickets or ticketing systems.
We don't sell tickets and we can't help change tickets.
We hope this guide will help you with any questions you may have about tickets for performances. We cannot help you even if you call the Rival's switchboard or contact any individual at Rival.
Always turn to the ticket company, they have very good information on their websites as well as correct referrals. Information can be found on the ticket. We stress the importance of you always buying tickets through the ticketing company that the production company has hired.
