SEATING

Wheelchair accessible seating is reserved during the ticket purchasing process. You will need to specify your need for accessible seating when purchasing your tickets on the website or at the box office.

You can now specify your companion seating needs when purchasing your tickets online or in the box office. Up to three seats can be guaranteed for purchase with your wheelchair accessible seat if available at time of purchase. Whether or not you purchase specific companion seating tickets, our venue personnel will work with you to ensure that you can sit with a companion. Please arrive at the venue early and you will be seated first.

Wheelchair accessible seating will be reserved for those who use wheelchairs only. Other special seating arrangements for those without wheelchairs can be made by sending an accommodation request.

Accessible Seating Regulations:
Accessible Seating for patrons with disabilities and their companions is reserved and available until general seating is sold out.

Wheelchair Accessible seating is for WHEELCHAIR SPACE ONLY. Up to three adjacent Companion Seats are available for companions of people with tickets for Wheelchair Accessible seats. Easy Access/Mobility/Transfer seats are also available.
