How to sponsor a seat

We are offering the opportunity to sponsor a specific seat in the Main Theatre (£500) or an unspecified seat in the Studio (£300). To make it easy for you to do this online, we’ve set up two Sponsor a Seat events that will never actually take place. You choose a complimentary seat for one of these events and you will be asked to make the appropriate donation when checking out.

If you are a UK taxpayer and make (or have previously made) a Gift Aid declaration to us, the tax man will automatically increase your donation at no cost to you by £125 (Main Theatre) and £75 (Studio).

Please note: our system will only ask you for a donation once each time you login so if you change your mind after you have chosen a seat and added your donation, please empty your basket, logout and login again before selecting another seat. Similarly, should you wish to sponsor more than one seat please checkout to complete the first transaction then logout and login again before selecting an additional seat.

Alternative ways to sponsor a seat

If you would like to sponsor a seat but are unable to pay the full amount in one go, you may pay in ten installments of £50/£30 a month.

Please e-mail us at sponsorship@www.abbeytheatre.org.uk and we will be happy to provide you with full details, a Gift Aid declaration form and a list of available seats in the Main Theatre.

If you would like to pay in full other than by card, please e-mail us at sponsorship@www.abbeytheatre.org.uk or write to Mike Johnson, Abbey Theatre, Holywell Hill, St Albans, AL1 2DL.

Top up an existing seat sponsorship

A few of our earlier seat sponsors have asked us whether they can ‘top up’ their existing sponsorship instead of sponsoring a new seat. If this applies to you please click here and simply make a donation to the seating fund.
