Background

On this 75-minute tour of the Royal Opera House, join an experienced children's workshop facilitator and actor, to explore the curious world of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. Learn about Alice’s journey from meeting the mysterious White Rabbit and attending a tap-dancing tea party, to unknown potions that turn her tiny. Handle ballet shoes and costumes, and peek through the window of the rehearsal studio to see where The Royal Ballet prepares. 

Venture to backstage areas usually off-limits to the public and discover the marvels of Wonderland. Have the opportunity to hold pointe shoes and tutus from previous Royal Ballet productions and enjoy a photo opportunity on the famous 'Bridge of Aspiration' that connects The Royal Ballet School and the Royal Opera House. 

Adults without children will not be admitted. Please note all children must be accompanied by an adult. One adult may be responsible for up to three children. Everyone attending must have their own ticket.

Access Information

This tour takes you through different areas of the Royal Opera House, including long corridors, stairs, escalators and lifts. The flooring is also different depending on where you are in the building – some floors are smooth and tiled or wooden, some are carpeted.  

Because we are a working theatre, there are areas that won’t always be available to us, which means each tour will take a different route. The spaces we travel through can sometimes be busy and loud.

Our tour guides use descriptive language which helps to paint a picture for blind and partially sighted visitors.   

Please get in touch at tours@roh.org.uk after booking to let us know your access requirements so we can make sure you have the best experience on your visit. We can help plan the tour if you require step-free and wheelchair access, if you prefer to avoid areas with views from a height, if you need to use the hearing loop or if you need to take regular breaks. Unfortunately, our hearing loops aren't compatible with Bluetooth.
