Love Never Dies in Concert

Love Never Dies in Concert at the London Palladium

The WhatsOnStage Award-winning concert production of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Love Never Dies returns for five performances at the London Palladium from Friday 16 to Sunday 18 October 2026. Directed by Shaun Kerrison, it forms part of the celebrations for the 40th anniversary of The Phantom of the Opera in London’s West End.

The story

Love Never Dies, Phantom of the Opera’s spectacular sequel, returns to the story 10 years after the Phantom’s disappearance from the Paris Opera House. Escaped to a new life in New York, he has finally found a place for his music to soar. All that is missing is Christine Daaé, the young soprano whose sensational talent enchanted the Phantom and saw him fall deeply and dangerously in love. In a final bid to win her back, the Phantom lures Christine, her husband and their young son Gustave to America to perform one final time. As old wounds are reopened and forgotten memories unlocked, the Phantom sets out to prove that, indeed, love never dies.
