Arrival Recommendations

Plan to arrive 60–90 minutes before showtime to allow time for security screening, bag checks, and finding your seats. This buffer also lets you explore the ornate lobby and grab a drink before the lights go down. If you’re driving, pre-book a nearby garage to avoid last-minute delays.
