Five tips for personalising your gift voucher

Published on 12 December 2024

A gift voucher to an Arts Centre already tells the recipient a lot about what you are thinking about them. It says you want them to plan a night out and that you want them to enjoy the fun of choosing from the wide selection of shows and entertainment. It can also tell the person you think they are fun and deserve some fun.  

However when gifting a theatre voucher to a friend or relative, personalisation adds a touch of thoughtfulness that makes the gesture truly special. Here are five tips for adding a touch of magic to your theatre gift voucher:

Choose Their Favourite Genre or Show: Suggest a few performance aligned with their preferences, whether it's a comedy, live music, or a contemporary drama. Or propose they go wild and book something totally different and unpredictable and offer some out-of-the-box suggestions.  

Include a Heartfelt Message: A personal message expressing your sentiments and excitement for their upcoming theatre experience and quote a favourite play, musical or songwriter.

Consider Accompaniments: Enhance the gift by adding a small item, like a theatre-themed trinket or merchandise that relates to a favourite genre or their preferred drink or chocolate to enjoy while making their show selection.

Customise the Presentation: Make the voucher presentation unique, using decorative packaging or a theatre-themed envelope or even wrap in a colourful scarf. Pop it in a small gift box and add rose petals or confetti to create the celebration vibes. 

Plan Together: Offer to plan the theatre outing together and act as their chauffeur on the night ensuring time together before and after the show.
