Arrival Recommendations

Plan to arrive 60–90 minutes before showtime. This gives you time to park or navigate public transit, clear security, visit concessions, and settle in without rushing. You’ll also have a few extra minutes to admire the venue’s historic lobby and architectural details before the lights go down.

Weather won’t interrupt your plans—performances are indoors—but leaving a buffer is helpful, especially for sold-out events when lines can be longer and nearby garages fill up. If you’re using rideshare, coordinate drop-off on Hennepin Ave and set a clear pickup spot for after the show to avoid congestion.

Minimal walking is required inside, and accessible routes are available. If someone in your group prefers fewer steps, consider orchestra-level seating and nearby parking ramps with ADA spaces. For peak nights, arrive on the early side of the window to secure smoother entry and explore concessions.
