and our BYOVs in the Financial District and the Mission District. The one
thing that remains the same is, How Much:Prices for each show are
set by the performers, with a maximum price of $8. Check the individual
ticket prices next to the show description in this program. All box office
revenues going directly to the artists, there are no refunds and no late
seating.

- DOWNTOWN VENUES:
- Where: Tickets are available
for each show ONLY at the specific theatre where the show is performed. Check the
VENUE
LOCATIONS lower on this page.
When: All tickets go on sale 30 minutes before each show. There
are no advance ticket sales so lines are almost always an issue, please
take this into consideration for stress-free fringing.
- How: All tickets are general
admission, sold on a first come first served cash only basis and are limited
to four per customer per show. There is no late seating, so if you are
the designated ticket buyer, your party must get there on time.

- REMEMBER
.No Late Seating,
Out of respect for the audience and the performers,
there is no late seating at any Fringe show, in any venue, for any reason.
No matter who you are, no matter how far you have come, no latecomers will
be admitted once a performance has begun. Even if the traffic was horrible,
you misunderstood the schedule and it just started 30 seconds ago, no latecomers
will be admitted once a performance has begun. Even if you are the parent,
sibling or best friend of one of the performers and this is the only time
you can see the piece, no latecomers will be admitted once a performance
has begun. Bother not the house manager, the volunteers or the box office
person because, no latecomers will be admitted once a performance has begun.
There are clocks in every venue, so set your watch for Fringe time and
enjoy the show.
