Welcome

WELCOME TO THE HARLINGTON...

NEW - DON'T MISS

We’ve got a feast of live music, comedy and theatre lined up in 2017, with a mix of returning and brand new acts, and I’m particularly excited to be able to bring more original and diverse artists to Fleet than ever before.

• The very best in original Blues, Jazz, Rock & Americana music here throughout 2017!

In addition to our ever popular comedy programme and fantastic selection of tribute shows (each with its own carefully selected seating/ standing layout depending on the style of show), we will be welcoming some of the very best original Blues, Jazz, Rock and Americana bands currently touring the UK and Europe. People have been asking for more diversity and it’s always been my aim to deliver, but in the end it will come down to how you, our audiences, support the new ventures, and in turn, help us to attract the very best established and up and coming bands to this venue. We’re working towards securing funding through Arts Council England to deliver this and future exciting programmes, and it’s nice to know that we have the potential to be recognised as a venue that wants to support and develop British musicians and songwriters, whilst offering something more for our audiences.

• Fleet Music Week – A week of live music throughout the town & 3 nights of live indoor festival concerts!

Further details coming soon at www.theharlington.co.uk

All of this work is building towards creating a bigger music culture in the area, and plans are currently underway, together with a committee of local industry and community focused people to deliver a week of live music and workshops throughout the town, culminating in three nights of different concerts at The Harlington over the late August Bank Holiday weekend (an outdoor festival, undercover - to protect against any adverse weather the British summer may wish to throw at us!) Further details and bands will be announced soon, so keep an eye on the website for details!

Whether it’s music, comedy or theatre you like, The Harlington is getting bigger and better every season. Please continue to support your fun and friendly local venue, and help us to keep bringing the very best live entertainment here to Fleet.

In addition to shows and gigs, 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.

Seating

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.

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.

BOX OFFICE OPENING TIMES

LATECOMERS

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).

Latecomers will be admitted at a suitable break in the performance.

FEES

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.

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 90p per ticket. There is an optional £1.00 postage fee per transaction.

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.

STANDING/DANCING

It is the nature of some events that audience members will stand/dance. Refunds will not be made on these occasions but we may be able to re-seat you if you speak to a member of staff.

BARS/CAFÉ

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.

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)
