Official A Midsummer Night’s Dream London Tickets

Love runs wild under the summer sky.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream returns to London in a new open-air production at Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre, running from Saturday 20 June to Saturday 18 July 2026.

Set beneath the trees and stars, this timeless Shakespeare comedy unfolds in a world where reality blurs, desire runs amok and dreams take hold.

This blissful new production is directed by Atri Banerjee (The Glass Menagerie, Julius Caesar) and features folk-infused original music by Maimuna Memon (The Grapes of Wrath, Portia Coughlan). Together, they bring fresh life to Shakespeare’s most spellbinding comedy in Regent’s Park’s unique outdoor setting.

A World of Dreams, Mischief and Magic

Are you sure
That we are awake? It seems to me
That yet we sleep, we dream.

When a bitter dispute erupts in the fairy kingdom, four runaway lovers and an unsuspecting weaver named Bottom are drawn into an enchanted forest. Led astray by the mischievous Puck, they stumble through a night of chaos, confusion and transformation.

As spells are cast and passions reversed, hearts are broken, remade and restored in a realm where the impossible feels tantalisingly close.
