Tips & Advice
- If you hold a 2026/27 subscription, log in before adding tickets, because subscriber-priced tickets carry no service charges or exchange fees.
- Make sure your phone has a data connection at Roy Thomson Hall, because mobile ticket barcodes change and can't be printed or screenshotted.
- Open the TSO Digital Wallet or My TSO App on concert day, since your barcode only appears eight hours before the performance.
- If your plans might change, make any exchange at least 48 hours before the concert, because single ticket sales are final with no refunds.
- If you're between 15 and 35, look into TSOUNDCHECK, the TSO's discount ticket program for that age group.
