TICKETING AND SEATING:
All our venues have seating that is accessible to people who use wheelchairs, as well as other challenges. Patrons may purchase one non-wheelchair companion seat adjacent to an accessible seat, if available. On the applicable seating charts (links provided below), wheelchair accessible seating areas will be noted with the universal wheelchair-accessible symbol. The price of wheelchair accessible seats will not exceed the price of the tickets in adjacent sections/areas or the lowest price offered for that event. Ticket prices, for all seats, vary by event.
