Why Becoming a Phoenix Friend is Totally Worth It 🎭

If you love live entertainment, film, and being part of a vibrant local arts community, then becoming a Phoenix Friend at Phoenix Theatre & Arts Centre might just be one of the best decisions you make this year.

This is more than just a membership, it’s your all-access pass to exclusive perks, savings, and unforgettable experiences.

🎟️ Say Goodbye to Booking Fees

One of the biggest everyday benefits? No booking fees on any events.

Whether you’re booking for a comedy night, live music, theatre, or film, those extra costs disappear — meaning you save money every single time you visit. 

⭐ Priority Booking = The Best Seats

Ever missed out on a big show? As a Phoenix Friend, that’s far less likely (We are talking to the 40,000 people who missed out on Alan Carr tickets last week!).

Members get priority booking for top-name comedy events, with access to some of the best seats in the house before general sale. 

It’s perfect if you want that front-row experience without the stress.

🍷 A Free Drink Every Season

Who doesn’t love a freebie?

With your membership, you’ll enjoy a free drink at one event each season — a small but brilliant perk that makes every visit feel a bit more special. 

💸 Discounts & Exclusive Offers

Being a Friend means your ticket goes further:

• Concession prices on selected shows 
• Last-minute ticket deals and exclusive offers 
• Special promotions sent directly to members 

It’s a great way to explore more events for less. 

🎬 Free Events Just for Members

This is where things get really exciting.

Each year, Phoenix Friends are invited to three completely free events, including:

• A film screening 
• A live music performance 
• A theatre show 

These exclusive experiences are only available to members — making you feel part of something truly special. 

🗳️ Be Part of the Community

This isn’t just about entertainment — it’s about belonging.

As a Phoenix Friend, you’ll get:

• A vote at the Annual General Meeting 
• A chance to have your say in the future of the venue 

It’s a rare opportunity to support and shape your local arts scene.

🌟 More Than a Membership

At its heart, Phoenix Friends is about more than perks.

It’s about:

As the programme puts it, it’s about feeling part of something special — and that’s exactly what it delivers.
