Support us

For people, not profit.

We rely on your support to make world class ballet and opera for everyone. With your donations we can ensure a bright future for the Royal Ballet and Opera, bringing communities together and inspiring future generations up and down the country.

Whether you support the toes of our dancers with donations to our Pointe Shoe Appeal; or give the joy of ballet and opera to young people across the county via our Schools Appeal; or preserve the heritage of Ballet and Opera through a donation to name a seat in our auditoria. Every donation is important.

A full report of our expenditure in 2022/23 can be found in our Annual Report.
