Tips & Advice

  • Buy your tickets early because these concerts sell out, and all sales are final with no refunds on any ticket purchase.
  • Arrive early, since doors open an hour before each performance and there is no late seating once the concert has started.
  • If you need an accessible street space in front of All Saints, come early, because those spaces depend on availability and can't be guaranteed.
  • If you can't make it, donate your tickets back to the Pasadena Symphony and POPS at least 24 hours ahead so someone else can attend.
  • Keep your flash off and skip video recording, because flash-free photos are welcome and you can share them online with #paspops.
