Though the venue hosts an eclectic array of shows, from films in concert t0 sporting events such as the Champions Tennis, a ballet performance at the hall cannot go amiss. Book tickets in advance of the English National Ballet’s Swan Lake which will be performed at the hall in June. royalalberthall.com

Where better to watch ballet than at the Royal Opera House? The prestigious performing arts hub is not only renowned – despite the name – for its extraordinary operatics, but is also home to The Royal Ballet, one of the most reputable ballet institutions in the world. Located amidst the cultural buzz of Covent Garden with a prepossessing palatial exterior, The Opera House itself carries with it a rich and fascinating history, originally built as a playhouse in 1732 and hosting its first ever ballet performance, Pygmalion in 1734. From a revival of Liam Scarlett’s Swan Lake (5 March – 16 May) to a production of The Sleeping Beauty from The National Ballet of Canada, the Royal Opera House has an unrivalled programme of ballet to inspire all ages. roh.org.uk
