Welcome
WELCOME TO THE HARLINGTON... It’s getting busy as we launch into another season of shows which will see us right through the rest of the year & into 2017. With plenty to choose from, we’ve got our usual mix of returning favourites & productions which are visiting us for the first time. Finding the most suitable seating layout for every individual show is the biggest challenge in creating the best experience for our audiences, & we constantly tweak them to create just the right atmosphere. Most performances will have cabaret type seating so that groups can sit around a table together with a drink. We’ve always tried to include dance floor areas where we feel people will want to get up & dance. Audience feedback would suggest that we could do with even more dance space on certain shows, so we’ve tried to incorporate this into some of our new layouts by slightly reducing the number of seats & increasing standing tickets. There are also a few all-standing shows too, giving the whole audience a real concert experience, but in the luxury of a more intimate space! For added piece of mind we’re now introducing a new cloakroom service (small charge) for most of the shows that offer a standing option. The information boxes at the bottom of pages throughout the brochure will show when this service is available. As for the shows themselves, we’ve got new productions such as tributes to David Bowie, Kings of Leon & The Bee Gees. Talents of Britain will feature six variety acts from a roster of Britain’s Got Talent finalists, & we’re excited to welcome Robert Habermann (voted Best International Performer) in his production of: His Way - The Songs & Life of Frank Sinatra, one of several shows from his Great American Storybook Series. He can certainly tell a story, & together with his musical director, gives the real inside story behind Sinatra’s recording career, also performing the songs everybody knows and loves. All this in addition to the hit shows returning due to demand; shows such as our monthly Stand Up for Saturday Comedy Club which just keeps going strong year after year, Bon Jovi Experience, Supersonic 70’s, Forbidden Nights, Blues Brothers Experience, Jenny Éclair & Abba Fever. We’ve now added a matinee show to Abba Fever in June, such is the demand, but it’s an ideal chance for the whole family to come & have a boogie without having to worry about bedtime! Our Christmas Party Nights proved so popular last year that we’ve lined up even more for 2016. Whether it’s a work outing or a night out with friends and family, these parties are guaranteed to get you into the Christmas spirit. Choose from our old favourites which sell out every time: Abba Fever, Comedy special & live band, & Mainly Madness or try one of the new additions: The Rollin' Stoned, 80’s Rewind or a non-stop knees-up party with Ska legends Bad Manners starring the original Buster Bloodvessel. If you’re looking for something more traditional, try our Classic Christmas Movie Marathon, Live Jazz Special & the long awaited return of Starburst Theatre with this year’s pantomime Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs. The scene is set for a magical season here in Fleet. In addition to shows, we also run a programme of regular classes & events, & you can hire rooms or the entire venue for your own event or party. Plus we can organise the catering, entertainment or any part of your event so you don’t have to. Visit our website for up to date information & to buy tickets for all of the shows, or chat to one of our friendly box office staff. Come and see us soon for a warm Harlington welcome & good times.

SEATING PLANS
HOW TO FIND US...
At The Harlington, we try to adapt our seating plans to suit different types of show.
The Harlington is situated in the centre of town on Fleet Road and is surrounded by car parks (pay & display). These can be accessed from Fleet Road at the front of the building, Victoria Road to the side or Harlington Way at the rear. The Gurkha Square car park at the front of the building is limited to 2 hours during the day, and in the evening tends to be more expensive to use than the other car parks which offer a flat fee of ÂŁ1 for the evening after 6pm. If parking for longer than 2 hours during the day, Victoria Road is the most ideal car park.
They generally fall into the categories of theatre or cabaret, but can differ slightly. The seating layout for our annual pantomime is different, as it involves building tiered seating specifically for the production, and cabaret layouts can vary from fully seated to a mix of seated and standing or all standing, with different sizes of dance floor. These are created to give the customer the best possible experience every time. Seating options are shown in the information boxes at the bottom of each page in this guide. The seating plan for performances can be seen online when booking tickets or can be discussed with a member of box office staff, and most allow you to choose where you sit with the exception of unreserved performances. The two most common seating plans are shown below. Theatre

Train services into Fleet are frequent with the station being on the main Southampton to Waterloo line with access from towns such as Basingstoke and Farnborough being very quick and easy. From the station head straight up Fleet Road towards the town centre. The Harlington can be found on the right hand side of the road (20 minutes approximately by foot or 3-5 minutes by taxi). Bus services also run along Fleet Road and the surrounding area.

Info
BOX OFFICE OPENING TIMES
The box office is open Monday - Friday between 10am - 5pm and on Saturday between 10am - 3pm (open later on performance days). Tickets can be purchased at any time via the website (fees apply).
FEES
We do not charge any booking fees for telephone or counter sales when paid by debit card or cash. A small fee is chargeable for credit card payments dependant on the value of the sale. Online booking fees are charged at 70p per ticket. There is an optional £1.00 postage fee per transaction.
BARS/CAFÉ
The Function bar is open before the show and during the interval and the café during matinee performances. There is an additional bar inside the auditorium which is open throughout and after most cabaret shows.
ACCESS
Our performance spaces, bars and toilets are all accessible. To ensure a comfortable visit, please inform our staff at time of booking if you require any further assistance.
TICKET COLLECTION
We’re happy to hold tickets at the box office for collection or will post them out at your request (£1.00 postage fee).
REFUNDS
Once purchased, we’re unable to offer refunds or exchanges on tickets unless an event is cancelled.
RESERVATIONS
We can reserve tickets for up to 3 days. Restrictions do apply closer to the date of a performance, when an event is near to sell-out, or at a producer/promoter’s request.
AGE RESTRICTIONS
Under 18s are welcome to attend the majority of our shows when accompanied by an adult. This is left to the discretion of the parent/guardian. Some performances do carry a suggested age limit as we feel they are not suitable for a younger audience. If in doubt, please check with the Box Office.
MEAL TICKETS
When a meal ticket is purchased with an event, please note the arrival time, which will normally be earlier than the standard “doors open” time. This is to allow you enough time to enjoy your food before the performance starts.
LATECOMERS
Latecomers will be admitted at a suitable break in the performance.
NEW CLOAKROOM FACILITY
Use our new cloakroom facility to store your items safely throughout the evening (small charge applies). This service is available on most of our live music performances where standing tickets are sold. When applicable this will be indicated in the information box for the show (Valuables should
be removed as we cannot accept liability for items left in bags or pockets)
