Seating:

• • • • • Orchestra: The orchestra section is only reachable by three downward steps. Therefore, it is not wheelchair accessible. Patrons using other mobility aids (walkers, canes, etc.) might find the orchestra section difficult to access. All mobility aids must be folded and/or stored under orchestra seats.

        • General Admission:  The general admission section does not contain any ADA-compliant seating. However, general admission ticket holders who need accommodations (and up to 3 companions) may use our disability-friendly line to enter the venue. Upon entering the venue, those who use the disability-friendly line will be escorted to the general admission terrace section.
          • • • The General Admission Terrace: The terrace is located on the north side of the venue. Slightly obstructed views of the stage are possible. A four-inch lip is located at the entrance edge of all terrace steps. At all Summer Nights with the Stars events, an usher is stationed in the area to assist patrons. A removable ramp is offered to help patrons in and out of the terrace steps; however, that ramp is removed while not in use due to egress requirements. 

Terrace Line: This line is intended for GA/Lawn patrons (and up to three companions) who need one or more of the following: level hard surface for mobility aids, mobility or crowd concerns. Additional companions will need to enter using lines in Section A or B. This line is only for those sitting in the terrace area. Once gates open, terrace line patrons will be escorted to the terrace section. Seating is limited in the area and is first come, first served. If you wish to sit elsewhere in the venue please use the main line to enter. Terrace line patrons may not relocate once in the venue. Patrons entering the venue via the Terrace Line and attempting to access other sections of the venue may be escorted to the end of the line.

Ticketing: Some of our events require tickets. Please note that the four designated wheelchair spots often sell out before the day of the show. Please purchase accessible seating as early as possible.
