Tips & Advice
- Arrive early to ensure you don't miss any part of the evening's festivities, including seating and the soup appetizer.
- Consider booking a weekday show (Tuesday-Wednesday) for a slightly lower ticket price.
- While alcoholic beverages are available for purchase, outside drinks are not permitted.
- If bringing very young children (under 3), note that high chairs may incur an additional children's ticket price and require advance notice.
- Use 'Yucaipa' or the zip code '92399' in your GPS, as Oak Glen is an unincorporated area and GPS can be inaccurate.
