Boo! Street Family Tour: A Halloween Journey Through Covent Garden
30 October
Until the mid-17th Century, Bow Street was a peaceful corner of Covent Garden, but when two theatres arrived, they brought with them a dark, criminal underworld. Join us on Halloween weekend to hear tales of murderous actors, creepy theatre ghosts, and the police officers trying to hold back the tidal wave of crime.
This outdoor walking tour is designed for history lovers aged 7 and upwards. Children must be accompanied by an adult. Don't forget to wrap up warm – you might get chills!
Behind The Scenes: Spooktacular Special Effects Tour

This tour will take visitors on a unique backstage experience, complete with props from some of The Royal Ballet and The Royal Opera’s goriest productions: Salome, Frankenstein, Don Giovanni, and La Sonnambula. Designed for ages 18+, the tour offers a chance to learn some of the closely guarded tricks of the trade: how to fabricate gaping scars, fake a severed head, summon a thunderstorm on stage, and use prosthetics. It ends, following a short visit inside the Royal Opera House’s famous amphitheatre, with a complimentary cocktail or mocktail in Piazza, the Royal Opera House’s revamped terrace bar overlooking Covent Garden.
