Know Before You Go

IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO KNOW BEFORE ATTENDING A CONCERT

PARKING

The main parking lot at the convention center is located on the North side of the building and is free to park. Handicapped parking is limited, so we recommend getting there early.

ENTERING

The theater has four entrances, two on the north side and two on the south side of the Convention Center. Each will have a Belle or Beau scanning tickets as you enter.

There is no elevator to the balcony. If you are unable to reach the balcony, please contact us, and we will make arrangements to seat you in the floor section.

WILL-CALL

If you have pre-purchased tickets, you may pick up your tickets at the Box Office located in the foyer of the Convention Center. The Box Office will open at 5:30 PM for the 7:30 PM performance.

WALK-UPS

Walk-up tickets will be available for purchase in the foyer. Please note that the Box Office will close at 8:00pm.

E-TICKETS

When purchasing tickets online and selecting the eticket delivery method, you will receive one email. This email will contain the order confirmation, and the PDFs will be attached at the bottom. If you do not receive this email, please check your spam folder.

You can also add your tickets to your Apple Wallet and Google Wallet!

Please get in touch with our Box Office with any questions or if you need assistance with your e-tickets.

CONCERT TIME

The performance will last approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes with a 15-minute intermission. Please try to arrive at least thirty minutes before the concert start time of 7:30 PM. This leaves time for parking, picking up tickets, scanning your ticket, visiting the restroom, and finding your seat. If you arrive late, you will be seated as soon as there is an appropriate pause in the performance.

There is no elevator to the balcony. If you are unable to reach the balcony, please contact us, and we will make arrangements to seat you in the floor section.

REFRESHMENTS

Refreshments provided by our concert sponsors will be available in the lobby from 6:30 p.m. – 7:30 p.m., and during intermission. Both alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks available, as well as bottled water.

Be sure to bring cash, as not every sponosor may accept credit/debit cards!

ATTIRE

There are as many ways of dressing as there are people who come to concerts. Most aim for business casual or dressier, but ultimately, the symphony is for everyone; wear what makes you comfortable. Feel free to even wear your favorite John Williams movie t-shirt!

STUDENT TICKETS

Students ages 6 through 18 can enjoy any Philharmonic concerts for only $9.00.

College students can get tickets for $5.00 (cash) or $7.50 (card) the night of the event. A valid college ID must be presented.

No children under 6 will be allowed in the concert hall. No children on laps; everyone must have a seat.
