can sign up and use the pass as long as they are 13-18 years old.

Where can I use my Teen
Tix pass? You can use your Teen Tix pass at any of our Participating Organizations.
top
How do I use my Teen Tix
pass?Teen Tix is a rush ticket program. You show up any time the box office is open on the day of the show, and our Participating Organizations will sell you a ticket for $5.
top
Can I make
reservations? No. Teen Tix tickets are sold on a first come, first-served basis starting when the box office opens on the day of the show ONLY. You cannot reserve tickets.
top
Can I buy my ticket in advance? No. Teen Tix is a day-of rush ticket program. You can only purchase your ticket on the day of the show that you want to see. The only exception to this is for Teen Tix Special Events. Check the website and newsletter for a special event announcements.
top
Can I buy my ticket over the phone? Yes! You can call any of our Participating Organization box offices on the day of the show that you want to go see and purchase a Teen Tix ticket over the phone. You will still need to show your Teen Tix pass and ID when you pick it up.
top
So, how can I be
sure there will be tickets available? We can’t make any guarantees, but we can get pretty close. If you’re concerned that there won’t be tickets available for the show you want to see, the best thing to do is call the box office and ask. They usually have a very good idea about how many rush tickets will be available on any given night, and they’re more than happy to help. The phone numbers are listed on the Participating Organizations, which are linked from the Teen Tix page.
top
Can I buy more than
one ticket? No. At the moment you can only purchase one
ticket with your Teen Tix pass. However, for Teen Tix Special Events, you may be allowed to purchase two tickets with
your pass, which would enable you to bring an adult along for the
same low price that you pay. Check the website for Teen Tix Special Event announcements.
top
What if I want to bring
an adult with me?On Sundays, you can buy a second ticket for $5 and anyone, including an adult, can use it! On all other days adults don’t qualify for the Teen Tix discount (it’s for teens, after all), but most of our Participating Organizations already discount their rush tickets, so the adult who is with you may be able to purchase a regular rush ticket for a vastly reduced price. Check out the individual venues’ websites or call their box offices to get their regular rush ticket prices.

How do I find out what’s
playing? As a Teen Tix member, you will automatically be
subscribed to our weekly email newsletter, which will tell you about
all of the great stuff you can go see with your Teen Tix pass. Additionally,
the Teen Tix website has event listings that are constantly updated. You can also
check Participating Organizations websites to find out what’s going on.
top
Will you sell my information?
No. Teen Tix will never share your email address, or any of your
other information, with any outside group for any reason.

I registered
for Teen Tix but never received my pass. What’s up?If
it’s been two weeks or less, your pass is probably on
the way – there are only a few of us and so many of you, sometimes
it takes us a little while, but it’s coming, we swear! If
it’s been more than two weeks, it might have gotten lost in
the mail. Email us with your name and address and we’ll get
a new one out to you.

I registered for Teen Tix
and received my pass, but I’ve never received the e-newsletters.
What’s up? It sounds like we probably got the wrong
email address for you when you signed up and your newsletters are
bouncing back at us. Send us an email with your name and correct
email address, and we’ll get you back on the distribution
list.

Um, the description says
that Teen Tix is good for visual art, but I don’t see many
museums or galleries listed. What’s up? Good question!
Here at Teen Tix Headquarters, we’re working hard on adding
more arts venues all over the city to our program. So, soon, you
should be able to go to museums and galleries, as well as other
dance, theatre, music and independent film venues
for five bucks with your Teen Tix pass. Stay tuned!
top
Don’t you have
to dress up to go to these places?No. You can dress up
if you want to, and you’ll probably see some people who look
pretty fancy when you go, but it’s not a requirement. In fact,
one of the nicest things about the arts scene here in Seattle is
that it’s pretty casual – it’s about enjoying
the art, not being in a fashion show! So wear what you’re
comfortable in…just keep your feet off the seats.
top
What’s the point of
all this? The point is that art is valuable, and it’s
for everyone. An arts-going community is a healthy community, and
we think that means that everyone should have access to high quality
arts programming, regardless of age.

Okay, how do I register?
Go back to the main page www.seattlecenter.com/teentix
and fill out the online form. In about two weeks, you’ll get
your pass in the mail, and then you’ll be good to go.
