WhatsOnStage Awards Set For London Palladium
The awards will take place on Sunday 28 February 2027.
WhatsOnStage announced that the ceremony for the 27th Annual WhatsOnStage Awards, in association with AudienceView, will return to The London Palladium for the fourth year in 2027.
Taking place at 6.30pm on Sunday 28 February 2027, the evening will see winners crowned across a variety of categories. Theatregoers can expect a starry line-up of exclusive live performances from leading stage talent.
Now in their 27th year, the WhatsOnStage Awards are the only major theatre awards decided by the theatregoers themselves.
WhatsOnStage's Darius Thompson and Alex Wood said today: “We're overjoyed to be returning to The London Palladium for a fourth year. We've already seen so many blockbuster productions across this eligibility period, with UK theatre once again proving it's a vibrant, evolving ecosystem that wows audiences up and down the country. We're so delighted to be offering not only a platform for ticket holders to celebrate their favourite shows, but to highlight the incredible work being done by creatives - be they casting directors, WHAM designers or those taking to the stage night after night. Bring on 28 February!"
Tickets go on sale in September. Nominations will open at a later date, with further information to be announced shortly.
The event is supported by a wide range of partners across the theatre industry and beyond, including platinum sponsors Disney Theatrical, Preevue, AudienceView, and White Light, alongside The Londoner (Official Hotel Partner), AKA, Concord, Dewynters, Go Live Theatre, ROYO, SINE Digital, Studio Twenty, Theatrical Rights Worldwide, Ticketmaster, Trafalgar Entertainment and Travelzoo.
