About Us

AMBASSADOR THEATRE GROUP

Founded in 1992 in the UK, we’ve grown into the world’s number one live-theatre company today. We cover every discipline in the theatre industry, from operating venues to ticketing platforms and producing shows.  We are passionate about great shows and our ambition is to help them find the largest possible audiences.

We operate some of the world’s most iconic venues.

We operate over 50 venues across Britain, the US and Germany. Our portfolio includes historic West End theatres such as the Duke of York’s, Harold Pinter, Piccadilly, Savoy, the Apollo Victoria and the Lyceum, home to Wicked and The Lion King respectively. We also operate venues across the UK in major cities such as Birmingham, Bristol, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Liverpool, Manchester and many more.  We have recently secured the contract to programme, present and operate two music-focused arenas. The historic Globe in Stockton, and the brand-new Digital Arena on the waterside in Swansea. In the US, we run two theatres on Broadway and manage venues in Brooklyn, New Orleans, San Antonio, Boston and Houston. ATG operates the two venues presenting Harry Potter and the Cursed Child in the US: the Lyric Theatre on Broadway and the Curran Theatre in San Francisco. In Europe, we operate theatres in Berlin, Cologne, Düsseldorf and Bochum. In addition, we’re delighted that Harry Potter and the Cursed Child has chosen one of our venues, the Mehr! Theater in Hamburg, for its first ever non-English production.

We are the world leader in theatre ticketing

ATG Tickets operates in the UK, US and Germany across three brands: atgtickets.com, LOVEtheatre.com and Group Line.  We run Britain’s most visited theatre ticketing sites, processing over 11 million tickets a year for hit musicals, acclaimed plays, concerts, comedy shows, attractions and exhibitions. Group Line is consistently voted “Best Ticketing Agency” by industry peers.

Recent ATG productions in the UK include the critically-acclaimed Pinter at the Pinter Season; Tony Kushner’s Caroline Or Change and 9 to 5, the musical scored by Dolly Parton. To celebrate Sir Ian McKellen’s 80^th birthday, we are extremely proud to be producing his 80-date UK tour in support of British theatre. ATG’s most recent producing credits in the U.S. include Dear Evan Hansen, Pretty Woman: The Musical, A Doll’s House Part 2, Sunday in the Park with George, and Lincoln Center Theater’s The King and I. Our European production arm, BB Promotions, recently won the “Promoter of the Year” award in recognition of accomplishments such as West Side Story, the stage adaptation of The Bodyguard and Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre.
