Yes. In order to see what seats are available you need to pick them as if you were going to purchase them online. Clicking on the individual sections will show you which seats are available.
Is there any advantage to purchasing over the phone versus online?
No. Purchases made online or over the phone will be charged a $3 per ticket handling. The only way to avoid this fee is to visit the Box Office and purchase your tickets in person. If using the online system, be sure to use the drop-down menu next to each ticket to ensure you’re purchasing the correct ticket type (ie. adult, senior, child). Also, many ticket discounts are not available online and must be booked by visiting or calling the Box Office.
