Mamma Mia the Party, seating plan update please read before booking.
So, we all love Mamma Mia the Party at the 02 London ... I am always very happy to hear the delightful comments customers have at the venue... This is an update about how it all works for the party as I'm often asked.
There are no tickets. I advise the name of the Lead Booker and the numbers in their party along with diet requests as you have advised me upon booking ' notes section ' on the website.
The venue will organise the tables up to 5 max on the table - the venue organise the tables a few days before the event - I do not organise the tables.
Travel, food, one drink and entertainment is included in the price. If you're attending an evening performance we usually arrive around 5pm.. the venue opens at 6.30pm = = the coach departs at 11pm.
We no longer have multiple tables of 6 inTier B but I can keep the groups together by changing the table sizes.
The venue organise the tables.. They can be either in Tier A or B and not C. Here's an extract from the Party online about their bands of seating.
WHAT’S THE VIEW FROM MY SEAT?
Mamma Mia! The Party is a theatrical experience where the action takes place at multiple points around Nikos Taverna.
There is not a specific stage-like performance area and guests will sometimes need to turn around in their seats to see the action.
Every seat on each table offers a unique view.
The view from some tables on the terraces, upper terraces and balconies is obstructed by support pillars and/or parts of the Mamma Mia! The Party set.
Where that obstruction is regular and severe, affected tables are categorised as Tier C (restricted view).
All tables are subject to temporary obstructions due to the set and the nature of the performance.
So ---- we may be seated in these tables they are Band A or B - the venue would seat you, not me and they will not seat you in Band C.
Finally - I really do want you to have the best time but do please be mindful the coach (for an evening performance) will depart on time at 11pm - it's not fair on others to wait.
The driver will not allow you on board if you are deemed intoxicated. (Drunk or under the influence of drugs).
The venue is located at the 02 London and we always park at the 02 Coach park so, if you leave a little early you can head back to the coach and board in good time for our departure.

Harry Potter tour ready to book now
I have to tell you it's taken months and months to source group tickets for the Warner Studios Harry Potter Tour and finally I have these on sale now for Saturday the 16th of March 2024 ... The tour starts fairly early at 09.30am so I thought it would be nice to make a full day and stop on the return in the stunning St Albans which I hope you will enjoy as much as I have in the past on coach trips.
It's always made so much easier for us to travel by Coach, sit back, relax and enjoy the travel stress free from driving/ trains/ tubes and the like.
So we head to the venue on Saturday the 16th of March 2024.

The tickets are ready to book on the website, just search Potter and you will be able to find all the details. I think this would make a lovely gift idea for someone special. I wasn't really a Harry Potter fan until I saw the shows (matinee and evening show on the same day at the Palace Theatre , London) and absolutely loved it. Any questions - email me, nicolahaynes@yahoo.co.uk and I'll reply as super fast as I can Love N x
Good afternoon Theatre fans...
Good afternoon, I do hope your week is going well.. I've enjoyed the lovely weather as have the dogs.. Not too many walks as a tad too warm for them.
I'm planning lots of new trips and events for you - exciting having so much to look forward to. Mamma Mia the Party at the 02 is always a massive hit for the group and I hope to be able to offer these very soon for you.
I had two guest / group organiser tickets last night for 'Dear England'. Dad enjoyed the show - we managed to park outside the Prince Edward Theatre as he has the badge now - driving into the West End still far better than using Tubes/ Trains.Last week we enjoyed ' Old Friends ' another brilliant show.
This week we have Matilda and The Choir of Man.. next week we are off to Abba Voyage, Magic Mike and the Time Traveller's wife, what a mix which works perfectly for the group having so many choices.
I have some spaces on the mini break next year to Stratford upon Avon £40 is the deposit to hold the room. We had such a lovely time in June many customers rebooked as soon as I advertised.
Facebook group is where I often advise what's coming soon, so do join me there at theatre trips essex.
See you on the coach Love N x
