WHEN YOU ARRIVE – INDIVIDUAL RESERVATIONS
If you have group reservations, please refer to the “Group Reservations” section below.
Your tickets will be available for pick up at the ticket booth starting one hour prior to showtime. Please have your reservation name and/or order number ready so we can serve you as quickly and efficiently as possible.
