What buyers ask before they book
- Are there any fees on top of the price shown?
Prices here are all-in: what is shown against a seat is what that seat costs. No service, booking or delivery fees; sales tax applies in some states and is shown before you pay.
- What happens if the show is canceled or postponed?
Canceled and not rescheduled: the ticket price and any sales tax you paid are refunded, or in some cases a credit voucher is offered. Postponed or rescheduled: your tickets remain valid for the new date.
- Are these tickets legitimate?
Authentic, valid tickets: licensed professional sellers list them here and set the prices. Historic Main Stage at Athenaeum Center does not sell the tickets on this page; independent sellers do. The King of Tickets is an independent resale marketplace. Resale prices may be above or below face value. The King of Tickets is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or the primary box office for The Nutcracker Ballet. Every order is backed by our 100% Buyer Guarantee: valid tickets, delivered in time, or your money back.
