The take

The biggest room in the Blumenthal complex, where Broadway tours land alongside the symphony's main series. Buy for the show, not the venue — though the hall holds up its end. The box office keeps afternoon hours, Tuesday through Saturday.

Questions people ask

Where should I park?

Blumenthal points patrons at the Bank of America Corporate garage on 5th Street between N College and N Brevard, at a $10 preferred rate after 5pm on weekdays and all day at weekends. The discount does not apply before 5pm on a weekday.

Does a child need their own ticket?

Yes — everyone needs a ticket whatever their age, and all sales are final. Will Call opens two hours before the show and needs photo ID.

Can I exchange my tickets?

For Blumenthal-presented shows and if seating allows, up to 72 hours before the performance, for $3.50 a ticket if you are not a subscriber.

What accessibility support is there?

Blumenthal states it is committed to ADA compliance and provides accommodations, and recommends booking Patron Assistance in advance.
