About Ballet
Ballet ranges from resident company seasons at their home theatre to touring companies passing through for a short run — including the holiday Nutcracker season — with live availability from our ticket partners.
Every on-sale ballet date we're tracking for 2026, gathered in one place with prices that move with demand.
Tour routings reach different markets at different points in the season, so this calendar fills out in waves rather than all at once.
What to expect
Resident ballet companies stage their own productions in their home theatre for a set season, often with a live orchestra, while touring companies travel between cities and may play only a handful of dates in each. The holiday season brings Nutcracker productions from resident companies, touring troupes and local dance schools.
Programmes usually mix full-length story ballets with shorter mixed bills, and running times include one or more intervals. Matinees are often the easiest choice for families, and each listing shows the venue, start time and age guidance before you buy.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a resident company and a touring ballet company?
A resident company performs its own stagings in its home theatre for a set season, often with a live orchestra. A touring company travels between cities and may play only one or a few dates in each. Compare the listing title, venue and date to choose the one you want.
Is ballet suitable for children?
Many ballets are family-friendly and story ballets are often a child’s first trip to the theatre, but age policies vary by venue and production. Check the event page before you buy, and consider a matinee for younger children.
When does the Nutcracker season play?
Nutcracker productions generally run from late November through December, with resident companies, touring troupes and local dance schools all staging versions. Exact dates and times are shown on each event page.
How long does a ballet performance last?
Running times vary by programme and usually include one or more intervals. Full-length story ballets are longer than mixed bills. Check the event page for the details.
