Paddington the Musical Extends West End Run to 2028 After Record-Tying Olivier Awards Sweep

The stage adaptation of Michael Bond’s beloved bear is making more room on the bench. Paddington the Musical has extended its West End run through June 25, 2028, at the Savoy Theatre, as it nears its first anniversary. The announcement follows a record-tying seven wins at the 2026 Olivier Awards, cementing the show as a critical and commercial powerhouse. Produced by Sonia Friedman and Eliza Lumley, with music and lyrics by Tom Fletcher and a book by Jessica Swale, the production has drawn families and theatregoers since opening. The extension signals strong ticket demand and long-term confidence in family-friendly theatre. With new dates on sale, Paddington’s London stay now stretches well beyond its original booking. For fans of the marmalade-loving bear, the message is clear: there’s still time to catch the show.
