FAQs

Some people like to be right up the front where they can see the perspiration on musicians’ foreheads. Others enjoy being up the back, with an elevated view of the entire orchestra.  

While all seats allow for a great concert experience, you can choose to pay extra for the most popular seats in the house. These tend to be closer to the stage while allowing great views of the orchestra and soloists, who almost always perform on the lefthand side of the stage (when viewed from the audience). 

You’re welcome to dress up to the nines, but we don’t expect you to. There’s no dress code. Jeans are as appropriate as tuxedos, and sneakers are as accepted as heels.

We recommend arriving 30 minutes before the concert and allowing time for any traffic or parking issues.

If you’re running late, don’t panic. Our friendly staff will be there to usher you to your seat at the earliest appropriate moment.

If you choose to have your ticket emailed to you, you do not have to print it. Your email ticket will have a QR code that our ushers can scan on the night. We suggest ‘flagging’ the email in your inbox so you can easily find it on the night.

Simply call, visit or email the Box Office and we’ll either re-send your tickets or arrange for them to be collected on the night.
