Fall under the wintery spell of our iconic open-air Globe Theatre and enjoy Hansel and Gretel as it returns to our wooden ‘O’ for a second year. Temptation and tasty surprises await for all the family in Poet Laureate Simon Armitage’s modern-day retelling of the famous fairy tale. Tickets from £5.

What was Christmas like in Shakespeare’s time? Well, there’s only one way to find out! Travel back in time 400 years and be enchanted by tales of wassailing and the winter solstice told by our expert guides.

With all that show-watching, tour-attending, shopping-adventuring, we’re starting to feel a little peckish… A Hansel and Gretel inspired Afternoon Tea with unbeatable views of St Paul’s Cathedral is exactly what we’re craving!

This year, give someone the gift of Shakespeare. Get them tickets with a Show Voucher – or, with a Gift Membership, they’ll get priority booking and access to exclusive events. Plus, with our Globe Player gift subscription, your lucky recipient can experience the Globe from wherever they are in the world. You don’t even need to pay for shipping, what a treat.

Discover a world inside the intimate Sam Wanamaker Playhouse, as we bring three illuminating plays to London’s only indoor candlelit theatre: All’s Well That Ends Well, Cymbeline and Three Sisters.
