Les Misérables 40th Anniversary Charity Gala performance announced
The concert will be held on 8th October at Sondheim Theatre
Cameron Mackintosh announced that Boublil and Schönberg's musical sensation Les Misérables will celebrate its 40th Anniversary in London's West End on Wednesday 8 October 2025 with a special charity gala performance.
A company of nearly 100 performers, including a star-studded line up of guest artists from the first 40 years of Les Mis such as Michael Ball, Alfie Boe, Patti LuPone, Samantha Barks, Matt Lucas, Frances Ruffelle, Carrie Hope Fletcher, Gerónimo Rauch, Bonnie Langford and Jeremy Secomb plus many more, will join the Anniversary Celebration Cast in a special finale.
The Gala Performance will support two charities that fight hunger in London and around the country: The Felix Project and UKHarvest
A limited number of Charity Gala Performance tickets (around half the house) ranging from £25 to £250 will be released for sale. A very limited number of £500 Platinum Anniversary tickets, to include pre and post-show hospitality at the theatre as well as a limited-edition print, will also be available to buy. Tickets are limited to 2 per person.
Cameron Mackintosh, producer of the show said: “It is an extraordinary feeling to be celebrating our 40th anniversary of Les Misérables on London’s Shaftesbury Avenue. Having staged several of our other milestone performances in iconic venues like the Royal Albert Hall for our tenth or the O2 Arena for our 25th, I wanted to bring this special celebration back home to its roots, in the theatre, where the British version first started at the Barbican in October 1985.”
