When to arrive
Burton Cummings Theatre uses live mobile delivery or box-office pickup for most events; print-at-home tickets are not accepted. Add the ticket to your phone wallet before arriving. The box office opens one hour before event start; pickup needs photo ID and the purchasing credit card, with the cardholder present. Guests without a cellphone can obtain printed tickets at the box office on show day. Nearby Exchange District lots and metered street spaces charge separately.

The experience
- Best for: A Winnipeg concert with the seating level and event entry rules confirmed before purchase
- Watch out for: Burton Cummings balconies have no elevator: the FAQ lists 35 steps to the first balcony and 65 to the second. Wheelchair positions are in main-floor Loges 1/2; arrange before purchase. GA floor shows can remove front rows and do not guarantee a chair. The usual bag limit is 16 × 16 × 8 inches; tours can be stricter. Concessions are cashless, but lower-level coat check is described as cash-only. Empty water bottles are normally allowed for the lobby fountain, subject to tour restrictions.
