Get London tickets before the queue forms.
London museum blockbusters. West End openings. The Christmas things that book out by October. The festivals Londoners travel for. The good ones sell out in minutes, months before the event, and almost nobody announces it anywhere you are looking.
One email on a Thursday tells you what is coming, how fast it usually goes, and whether a membership would have got you in first. On the morning itself, a second one says it opens today.
Free, forever. One click to leave. We do not sell tickets and we never share your address.
The dates are public. Nobody tells you.
When the British Museum opened Bayeux Tapestry sales in 2026 it took £2.5m on the first day, with more than 80,000 people in the online queue. Most of the people who would have gone found out when it was over.
Every one of those dates was published somewhere first. On a press page, in a season brochure, in the small print of a membership offer. Scattered across a hundred different websites, with no warning, and gone by the time anyone mentions it.
So we read all of them, every night, and send you the ones you care about.
Opening soon
The next ten, free, soonest first. Showing dates.
Each row says how fast it usually goes, how sure we are of the date, and whether there is a membership that books before the public.
Pick what you want to hear about
Choose as much or as little as you like. The preview changes as you do, so you can see exactly what would land in your inbox before you give us anything.
Your email, as it would arrive
Five rows is an ordinary week. Some weeks it is one line saying nothing you follow is coming up.
Half of London is already booked before you get a look
Most sold-out things in London are not sold out to everyone at the same time. Members go first, sometimes by three weeks, and the institutions publish exactly when. Nobody puts those windows in one place, so we do, and every row that has one names the membership and what it costs.

Questions
- What actually arrives?
- Two things, both free. One email on a Thursday morning listing what opens in the next fortnight, in the categories you picked; if nothing you follow is coming up it says so in one line rather than padding it out. And on the morning of a sale you follow, a short note saying it opens today and at what time, because knowing on Thursday about a Tuesday sale is five days to forget.
- Why does the morning alert only cover some of the dates?
- It only covers dates the venue has published. An alarm at eight in the morning for a date we worked out from last year sends you to a page with nothing on it, and after that you would rightly ignore the next one. Estimates stay in the weekly email where they can be labelled and put in context.
- What does it cost?
- Nothing. The weekly email and the morning alert are both free and will stay that way. If something is charged for later it will be something other than the promise on the front of the site.
- What does "our estimate" mean on a row?
- The venue has not announced next year's date yet, so we worked it out from when they did it last year. Treat it as a heads-up rather than something to plan around. Rows marked venue confirmed came from the venue's own page. We publish how often each label has turned out to be right, with every miss listed.
- Do you sell tickets?
- No, and we never will. Every link goes to the venue's own box office and we take nothing from it.
- How do I get out?
- One click in any email, or your mail app's own unsubscribe button. No form, no "are you sure", no email asking you to reconsider.
Thursday, then again on the morning. Free.
Everything opening in the next fortnight, in the categories you pick, with the members' windows that open before them. Then a short note on the day itself, so knowing about it is not the same as remembering it.
Free, forever. One click to leave. We do not sell tickets and we never share your address.
Or put them straight in your calendar
Subscribe once and the dates land in your own calendar, with a reminder the night before and ten minutes before. When a venue moves a date, the entry moves with it.
