Frequently Asked Questions
Why do babies need tickets?
For most events, babies need tickets to enter the theatre. Children younger than two (2) years may be held on an adult's lap, but exceptions are determined by the event organizer. The Alaska Center for the Performing Arts recommends that children six (6) and younger attend family events only.
What is the 'ticket delay' period?
Ticket delay is a security feature for electronic tickets. The QR code on tickets is hidden until 48 hours prior to the performance to prevent fraud. Tickets without QR codes are not valid for entry.
Can I bring food into the theater?
Generally, food purchased off-site is not allowed inside the venue. While concessions are available, food is not permitted in the seating area of the theaters. Bottled water purchased from the concessionaire is allowed.
What is the dress code?
Casual clothing is acceptable for all events. However, patrons often dress up for opening nights and gala events.
What happens if I arrive late?
Late seating is determined by the presenter. If permitted, ushers will allow entry at an appropriate time, often during intermission. A video screen outside the seating area allows latecomers to watch the performance while waiting.
