Younger children may sit on a lap but not in a seat as there will usually not be an empty seat in the Row next to the family. That means no strollers or baby carriers in another person’s seat area.
- There are no children or senior prices for any of the concerts.
- All seats are metal bench seats with backs. Seat Cushions may be rented at two locations, on ground level and on the mezzanine level. Customers can leave these on the seats after the concert.
