Moulin Rouge! The Musical is celebrating five spectacular years in the West End with a special fan performance at the Piccadilly Theatre on 11 November 2026.

Moulin Rouge! The Musical is marking its fifth anniversary at the West End’s Piccadilly Theatre with a special performance for fans on 11 November 2026.

The five-year milestone marks 25 years since the release of Baz Luhrmann’s genre-defining Moulin Rouge film, on which the stage musical is based. Set in Paris in 1899, the show follows lovesick writer Christian and Satine, who is the dazzling star of the Moulin Rouge nightclub, as their whirlwind romance collides with the ambitions of club impresario Harold Zidler and the wealthy, entitled Duke of Monroth.

Moulin Rouge! The Musical is selling all tickets for £25. Tickets for the anniversary performance go on sale exclusively to Moulin Rouge! The Musical email subscribers on 18 September.
