Across August 2026, we’re offering a unique hands‑on experience with our technology team, where you can discover how digital systems power everything from ticket sales to live show operations.
From supporting theatre Wi‑Fi and backstage systems to exploring how large‑scale technology projects are delivered, you’ll gain an insight into how the team keeps our venues running smoothly day‑to‑day. You’ll learn how technology supports customer experience, maintains essential infrastructure, and plays a key role in delivering world‑class live entertainment.
