Beautiful venue, but please know the only wheelchair accessible level is the main floor! There are quite a few stairs up to mezzanine and balcony

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Do we get charged the fees if the tickets are bought at the physical box office

S R | Sep 17, 2019
Cindy Eulitt | Sep 17, 2019

I am not 100% certain, but what I believe is that you will be charged the taxes, but not the actual horrifying service fees that ticketmaster charges. I'm sure someone else can correct me if I'm incorrect.

Is it okay to bring a tablet to take pictures of the show? (I'm seeing Ghost December 2nd) I'm asking because there are some venues that won't allow professional photography items and I'm unsure if tablets go in that category.

dutch “sᴘᴀᴡɴ ᴏ' ʟᴜᴄɪғᴇʀ” is a dilf | Sep 17, 2019
Brenda Bridgett | Sep 17, 2019

Alice Cooper allowed all fans to take phone photos and video. Each artist must have his own policy. Normally a professional camera means removable lens. Phone the venue and ask. My friend had to take his camera back to the car in Roanoke, Luckily we we're early and he still made the concert. Same concert I took 200 phone photos. IMHO, a tablet would count the same way of phone is that is a be allowed. However there are artists like Dylan who just don't want their images out there. also I went to some musical productions in Myrtle Beach last month and no photography was allowed there. You can't base it on what happened before. Call the venue.
