About Globe Theatre Tours 2026

Globe Theatre Tours 2026 at Shakespeare’s Globe is a guided visit through the Globe Theatre and a new walk-through exhibition space. The experience explores Shakespeare’s London, the craft of stagecraft and more than 400 years of history, with seasonal displays and interactive costumes and props in the exhibition area.

Expert guides bring the theatre’s story to life inside the iconic wooden ‘O’, explaining the original 1599 theatre’s history, including its survival through plague, fire and political oppression before its rebuilding in the 1990s. The tour also gives a clear sense of the building’s craftsmanship and the scale of the theatre that once held thousands of Londoners.

Key facts: Duration is approximately 2 hours, including a 50 minute guided tour and self-guided time in the exhibition space.
