OFFICIAL TICKET SOURCES While it’s tempting to get tickets any way you can, there are many sites and people who are selling overpriced, and in some cases, fraudulent tickets. If you buy from a ticket reseller, Hennepin Arts cannot guarantee the legitimacy of your ticket, and you risk being denied admission, refunds and/or exchanges, and updates in real time should there be any changes to the status of the show. We urge you to buy only from our authorized ticketing agents.

Ticketmaster is the only authorized ticketing agent for online purchases. For the best seats, the best prices and to eliminate the risk of counterfeit tickets, all purchases should be made directly through Ticketmaster, HennepinArts.org or in person at the State Theatre Box Office at the appropriate time. For up-to-date information on ticket sales, please visit HennepinArts.org.
