I FOUND TICKETS ON A SITE THAT ISN'T ACORNCENTER.COM. SHOULD I BUY THEM?Don't do it! The Acorn Center Box Office and www.theacornlive.com are the only authorized outlets for tickets to events held in our venues. We use E-Tix ticketing system. We DO NOT accept tickets sold on a secondary market. We reserve the right to decline entry if you are not the original ticket buyer. Other ticketing sites usually increase the fees, and in some cases, you may end up with a fake ticket. If you purchase a ticket from a third party/secondary market, keep in mind it is at your own risk. Buying from us ensures you get your ticket at face value, and more importantly, get to see the show you intended to see. Side note: The Acorn Center does not condone the unfair and misleading practices of ticket scalpers who profit at the expense of true fans. To make sure our patrons get the absolute best prices, we do reserve the right to refuse a sale to anyone we think is a third-party vendor, scalper, or ticket broker. Ticket orders found to be in violation of the Acorn Center's reselling policies will be canceled.

MY TICKET WAS STOLEN... OR IT DIDN'T ARRIVE IN THE MAIL... OR MY DOG ATE IT... OR I LOST IT. IT'S GONE, OKAY? IT'S GONE! CAN I GET A NEW ONE?Don't worry! Regardless of how they disappear, we can reprint tickets free of charge. Reprinted tickets can't be mailed, but you can pick them up the night of the show at the box office with photo ID. If you accidentally left your tickets at home, please visit the Acorn Center Box Office to request a reprint. Be sure to present a photo ID and, if you know it, please give the Box Office your order number. But don't worry – we can still print them for you without the order number.
