All the info you need

Here you'll find our answers to all your needs once you've made a purchase from us. Please note, this is only for tickets bought through us. If you used another website, please contact their customer support center for further help.

  • Your confirmation email
  • Track your order
  • Cancellations or lost tickets

Confirmation Email

Once you've made a purchase with us, you'll receive an email within a few minutes confirming your purchase to the email address you supplied. If you wish to change this email, please call the appropriate customer support team and they'll help you with that.

Hey, I didn't get my confirmation email yet, what's up with that?

If your email didn't show up in your inbox, you can:

Check your spam box - sometimes your email provider will filter new emails, marking them as spam. It's always a good idea to check here first.

Make sure you used the right email - Everyone has multiple emails nowadays, be sure to check all the addresses you use in case you provided one of those emails instead.

If you've taken these steps and your email still hasn't shown up, please take a second to gather any information you have associated with the order, booking reference, show, venue, date of show, date of purchase etc and give us a call on 844-765-8432 and we'll help you get to the bottom of the mystery!

Order Status

What is going on with my order?

Check the status of your order by using our handy ticket tracker. If your question is pressing, please call us up on 844-765-8432.

Event Attendance

Are there likely to be additional COVID-19 health & safety policies?

Yes! Many theatres are gradually reopening. However, audiences may be required to have had a COVID vaccine in order to attend a performance and/or show proof of a negative test.

Additional measures such as wearing a mask and social distancing may also still be in place. Please contact the venue directly with any queries.

Do I need to abide by the event's safety & health policies?

Yes! Your tickets and admission to the event are subject to all their safety and health policies (including COVID-19 related ones). These policies may change in the leadup to your event and it is your responsibility to monitor any updates to these. If your admission to the event is denied or revoked because you have willfully failed or refused to comply with any such safety and health policies, you won't be eligible for any refund or other compensation

Cancellations and lost or stolen tickets

My tickets were lost/stolen, what shall I do?

Tickets are a one of a kind, irreplaceable item that can rarely be re-printed or re-accessed. These restrictions are in place to prevent fraudulent behaviour, such as multiple copies of the same ticket. In some limited cases we may be able to have lost or stolen tickets reprinted and reissued with new barcodes and/or resent via email. Call us on 844-765-8432 or use our online contact form and we'll see if we can assist.

Can I cancel my order?

Tickets purchased through our nationwide exchange are not able to cancel orders or offer refunds. There is a standard all-sales-are-final policy across both the primary and secondary ticket market. The reason for this is because tickets are time sensitive items with strict limits on their value. Sellers may not be able to sell any returned tickets or may have to sell them for less money. The end result is that the ticket supplier ends up losing money as a result of the ticket return.

If you'd like more information, please contact the appropriate customer support team on 844-765-8432 or use our online contact form and we'll see if we can assist.

The event has been cancelled! What do I do?

If an event is cancelled, you are entitled to full compensation of your order total in the form of a monetary refund or a credit for use on a future purchase, as determined at our sole discretion (this may vary by jurisdiction). You will be contacted by email as soon as we have been alerted of a cancelled event. However, there may be occasions where events are cancelled with little notice. If you believe your event may be cancelled, please check with the artist, team, or venue's website prior to arriving to ensure that your event is taking place. Please note that you may be required to send back any unused tickets before compensation can be issued.

If you have been issued Store Credit for a cancelled event and wish to exchange it for a monetary refund instead, please contact our customer support partners by using the contact us form/other options on site and they will action that for you.

For full details of our compensation policy, please view the relevant section of our Terms & Conditions and for more clarity on how we're handling these exceptional times please visit our Covid Information Page.

If you'd like more information, please contact the appropriate customer support team on 844-765-8432 or use our online contact form and we'll see if we can assist.

The event is postponed! What do I do?

Your tickets will be valid for the new show date. Postponement does not entitle you to compensation for your ticket purchase.

If you'd like more information, please contact the appropriate customer support team on 844-765-8432 or use our online contact form and we'll see if we can assist.

Ticket Delivery

When will I receive my paper tickets?

Your email confirmation will include an estimated shipping date. This varies according to the event type, ticket type, and when tickets become available. Once your tickets have been dispatched, you'll receive an email with tracking information.

How are my tickets shipped?

Our sellers use UPS for ticket shipping, to insure security and peace of mind for you and them. Please note, you will need to provide a signature on delivery.

When will I receive my E-tickets?

You will receive an email once your tickets are ready with instructions on how to access them. Please note that this may not be the same day you place your order, particularly if tickets are not available yet.

For more help, use our handy ticket tracker. If your question is pressing, please call us up on 844-765-8432

Electronic Transfer

What are Electronic Transfer tickets?

Electronic Transfer tickets must be transferred online and displayed on a smartphone device for entry. When Electronic Tickets that are purchased on a primary market website are resold on the secondary market, the seller will transfer the tickets from their account to the new buyer through the website they were originally purchased on. Once transferred, tickets will no longer be in the seller's account. At the event, tickets must be accessed through the online account created during the transfer process which will display a barcode for each seat. The attendant will scan the barcodes from your phone to allow entry.

How do I access my Electronic Transfer tickets?

In order to access your Electronic Transfer tickets you'll need to go through a number of steps. They might sound daunting but don't worry, if you follow this guide it should all work seamlessly for you!

  • 1. Receive confirmation email from us. This email will notify you that your tickets have been transferred.
  • 2. Locate transfer offer from the seller. The email will come from a separate platform sent around the time you received the notification email from us.
  • Hint: If you are having trouble locating the transfer email remember that the email will be coming from the primary market and will be sent by the seller of the tickets. You may need to look in your inbox, junk, trash, and spam folders. You may also need to search by event name or venue name if you are still having trouble locating the email.
  • 3. Click on the link or button in the transfer email. You will be directed to a log in page to create an account or log in.
  • 4. Create an account or log in. Use the same email that was used to place your order with us.
  • 5. Follow the prompts to accept the tickets. After you have logged in, the page will give you instructions on how to accept your tickets. Follow the steps until you are able to see your tickets information.
  • 6. Access web page on a mobile device. After your tickets have been accepted, you will need to pull up the mobile QR codes from your mobile device. You can do this by going to a mobile web browser and logging into the webpage where you originally accepted your tickets.

Additional Electronic Transfer troubleshooting

If you receive an error message when logging in to the account page, please attempt to log back in later. Error messages can happen from time to time due to system issues on the third-party website. If you receive an error message, you should wait until later in the day to try again.

If you are having trouble accepting the tickets, we recommend troubleshooting from a different device or web browser. Some browsers and devices do not work well with the acceptance of tickets. We recommend that you attempt the transfer process from a desktop computer.

If you receive a message saying that your tickets were already accepted, you will likely just need to log in to the account and navigate to the home page to see your ticket information.

Store Credit

What is Store Credit?

If your event has been cancelled and you have received an email from us with the details of a Store Credit, then you may use the 16 digit Credit Code to purchase tickets on one of our sites up to the Credit Amount listed in your email.

How do I use my Store Credit?

Select any event on the site you purchased from or another in our collection and proceed to the checkout page at which you should enter your Credit Code into the ‘APPLY A DISCOUNT CODE’ box on the right hand column of the page. This will apply the full credit to your purchase.

Can I get a monetary refund for my cancelled event?

Yes. If you have received confirmation from us that your event has been cancelled and you do not wish to make use of the 120% store credit that will have been sent to you for a future purchase, please contact our support team to request a monetary refund of your original order instead.

A monetary refund of your original order value, inclusive of base price, fees, delivery charges, less any sums already refunded, will be made to your original form of payment, and the store credit will be cancelled.

Please contact the appropriate customer support team on 844-765-8432 or use our online contact form to request your refund.

When does my Store Credit expire?

The Credit code is valid for use until December 31, 2022 (or a period of 18 months from the date of issue if later).

Can I buy tickets to events that will take place beyond the expiry date?

Yes. Provided that you have placed your order before the expiry date.

I’ve received the store credit email but can’t see the coupon mentioned?

All you need is the Store Credit 16 digit code that is listed in the body of the Store Credit email. There is no physical coupon attached.

Can I assign my Store Credit to someone else?

No. The Store Credit may only be used by the person to whom the email is addressed. But you can, as always, use the credit to purchase tickets for someone else to attend the event.

What happens if I don’t use the full amount of my credit?

The credit code can be used on multiple purchases until the balance remaining is zero. But may only be used in conjunction with the email address to which the Store Credit email was originally sent to.

Can I exchange the store credit for cash?

This is not a cash equivalent and has no cash value and may not be transferred to another email address. In most circumstances you can return your store credit in exchange for a monetary refund of your original order value, please contact the appropriate customer support team if you wish to explore this.

I bought my tickets using a gift card. Will I still get a Store Credit?

Yes. Your credit will be added back to your original gift card and can be used again to buy new tickets.

Seating

What is Zone seating?

Zone seating is a recent introduction in the secondary ticket market that borrows entertainment trends from Europe. The seating itself involves venues being geographically divided into various chunks according to a visual model. The chunks concerned are often dubbed "Zones" and randomly drawn and marked with varying creativity. (Zones could be labelled as A, B, C or GOLD, SILVER, BRONZE or any such system of categorization.) Event-goers are then given options to purchase seats based solely on their Zone location. (Some sellers will choose to specify seating location in greater detail in their ticket notes.)

Will my seats be together?

All seats are guaranteed to be together unless explicitly stated otherwise in the seller notes on the ticket listing. Seats that aren't together must be advertised as being "piggybacked" or "split" above a certain purchase quantity.

Why aren't seat numbers listed on the tickets?

Ticket sellers don't advertise seat numbers publicly for various reasons. This may be to protect their privacy (if they are season ticket holders) and/or to prevent double-booking of tickets by multiple customers. Specified ticket listings (seat by seat) would result in numerous customers buying the same exact seats at the same time.

Access and special needs

If you have a disability, or require special access, please make sure you place the order over the phone with one of our customer support agents, as they will be able to offer full support and discuss seating options with you.

Lost and found

As you know, Louisville Theater is an independent theatre guide and ticket reseller, we don't operate any of the venues listed on site. If you misplaced an item during a performance, you'll have to contact the venue directly, as we are unable to pass on any enquiries.

Ticket availability

If you're looking for a certain show, try typing it into the search bar to find the showpage, from there you can click on "buy tickets" and see what inventory we have available. You can also look up a show on our Event Calendar. If you can't find the show you're looking for, or there are no tickets left on your chosen date, don't despair, just give one of our customer support advisers a call on 844-765-8432 and they'll be able to give you full support with making your booking.

The event is soon and I need a ticket, what can I do?

You'll only be able to access tickets on the same day if the tickets are set up for 'local pickup', 'will call,' or 'email.'

Local Pickup - means you will collect the tickets at a location local to the venue.

Will Call - means that you will collect the tickets at the box office of the venue roughly an hour before the event.

Email - means the tickets will be emailed to you at the seller's discretion. In rare cases, some ticket sellers will chose to send the tickets via courier, or ship the tickets if time permits.

Please note that availability of these delivery methods is at the absolute discretion of the seller. Some sellers will notate either one or all of the three methods clearly and explicitly on the ticket listing or present one or more specific options during checkout. Other sellers may default to "Near-Term Special Delivery". This means that they can likely provide tickets using one of the above three methods, but you will need to contact the seller yourself, to arrange delivery.

You might also notice some ticket listings that advertise "Last Minute Pickup" as a possible near-term delivery method during checkout. This delivery method is equivalent to local pick up and means that you'll pick up the tickets no sooner than 2 hours before the event, at an office within a few miles from the venue.

Either way, once you place a near-term order, it's always a good idea to get in contact with the ticket seller that you purchased from to confirm the delivery process.

For more information, you can contact the appropriate customer support team on 844-765-8432 and one of our advisers will be happy to guide you through the process.

USING A GIFT CARD

If you've been given a gift card for Louisville Theater and would like to use it for your purchase, just select any event on the site (or another in our collection) and proceed to the checkout page. Look for the Apply a gift card box under the order summary on the right and enter your Gift Card Code. This will apply the gift card to your purchase.

Which shows can I use my gift card for?

You can use your gift card for all the shows on this site and all shows on any of our Theatreland sites across all of the USA & Canada.

I've forgotten my Gift Card code.

All you need to do is find your order number and then contact our customer support team on 844-765-8432 or by email here and one of our advisers will be happy to sort you out.

I've got more than one Gift Card, can I use multiples on one order?

Our website doesn't support this BUT if you call us on 844-765-8432 to place your order, one of our advisers will be happy to sort that out for you.

What happens if I don’t use the full amount of my Gift Card?

The gift card can be used on multiple purchases until the balance remaining is zero.

Can someone else use my Gift Card?

Yes, your gift card is transferable and anyone with the code can use it, so look after it carefully! Once it has been partially used the remainder can only be used by the same customer.

Can I exchance my Gift Card for cash?

No, this is not a cash equivalent and has no cash value and won't be refunded.

When does my Gift Card expire?

Never! Your gift card will last forever so we'll be here ready to accept it whenever you'd like to use it.

Donations

Louisville Theater is an independent theatre guide and ticket reseller, it is for this reason we're unable to process donation requests. Your best bet is to contact your chosen theatre or show to discover their ticket donation policies directly. Please note, we are unable to forward on any correspondence for you.

Group Buying

If you're looking to purchase 10 or more tickets, please contact our specialist groups team on 844-765-8432 who are on hand to help you get the best seats and prices for your visit.

International Customers

How do I access US event tickets if I'm an international customer?

There are three main ways to access event tickets for US-based events if you're an international customer:

1) Order tickets and input a US-based shipping address: You should use this option if the event is more near-term in nature and you could potentially have the tickets shipped to a friend's house in the US or even a hotel, prior to your arrival. If you chose this option, please make sure to contact your hotel/friend before buying the tickets, so they are aware to expect a package for you.

2) Order tickets marked as being available for will call, email, local pickup (etc): Tickets are only available using one of the above methods if that method is specifically advertised on the listing notes and/or during checkout.

3) Order tickets and input your home address for shipment: You should use this option if the event concerned is a while away and thus likely to ship before your travels. Please note that you can always contact your ticket supplier directly to provide an alternate (US-based) address (if needed)

Questions about tickets

Will my seats be together?

All seats are guaranteed to be together unless explicitly stated otherwise in the seller notes on the ticket listing. Seats that aren't together must be advertised as being "piggybacked" or "split" above a certain purchase quantity.

Why aren't seat numbers listed on the tickets?

Ticket sellers don't advertise seat numbers publicly for various reasons. This may be to protect their privacy (if they are season ticket holders) and/or to prevent double-booking of tickets by multiple customers. Specified ticket listings (seat by seat) would result in numerous customers buying the same exact seats at the same time.

Where do the sellers get their tickets?

The sellers listing through Louisville Theater access tickets for events in various ways. Some sellers purchase tickets through box offices (like other customers) whereas other sellers access tickets through third-party suppliers and other resellers. Many sellers even belong to special fan clubs and, as a result, have access to pre-sale tickets that the general public does not. Sellers may also have special deals with sports teams, band managers, or event promoters.

Why are similar tickets different prices?

The tickets listed on our nationwide exchange are all being listed by different sellers who have different perceptions about seating worth. This means that tickets in the same (or in a similar) section might well be valued differently by their sellers. For example, one seller may price tickets at $50 each and another may price similar tickets at $65 each. It's therefore wisest for customers to buy their tickets based on the stated location rather than price.

Is my transaction safe?

Louisville Theater is totally PCI compliant and is tested daily for computer security, we also have the latest fraud protection technology installed on our system to ensure you a secure buying experience and peace of mind after the fact.

Do I have to pay sales tax?

Taxes on tickets vary substantially from state to state and even between localities in various states - an ever-changing situation. This means that local and/or state taxes are not calculated on our checkout page during the purchase process. Ticketing taxes are based on the location of the ticket seller supplying an order and most prevalent in Texas, Chicago, California, Michigan and Canada.

Are ticket orders charged in US Dollars?

Almost all of our ticket orders placed with Louisville Theater will be charged in US Dollars. Please note that exchange charges may apply to ticket orders made from outside the US if applicable.

New Ticket types

E-Tickets are printed on paper, unlike hard tickets which are printed on cardstock. These paper tickets will have a barcode and will be valid for entry into an event.

Paperless tickets aren't like traditional paper tickets and they don't involve having a physical ticket in hand. Ticket purchases are instead associated with the credit card originally used for a ticket purchase. This credit card has to be swiped for entry into the venue. Customers access events using paperless tickets by being escorted into the event by a representative from the seller (the original purchaser of the ticket) or by being provided with the credit card used by the seller for the original ticket purchase. Either way, you must have the card; no card means no entry.

Flash tickets are a new innovation used for ticket distribution by event promoters. Event-goers with "flash" tickets access their tickets by swiping a credit card (the one used for the original ticket purchase) at a venue kiosk. This kiosk will then print out a ticket receipt that the event goer can present to venue personnel as a means to gain entry to the event. Customers should contact their seller directly with any additional questions about flash ticketing
