Ticket FAQs

A pack of 2, 3 or 4 performances, purchased in advance. It is more cost effective to purchase a subscription than to buy single tickets throughout the year. A subscription gives you:

• First access to the best seats at the best prices
• Unlimited no-fee exchanges (value: $15 saving per ticket)
• Tickets must be exchanged 48 hours prior to the performance
• Exclusive event invitations, pre-sales and discount offers

There are two types of subscriptions: Premium Series(Full) and Create your Own Series (CYO).

The best value and the best seats! Previously known as Full Series, with a Premium Series subscription you see all ballets (four at Arsht Center and Broward Center, two at Kravis Center, excludes Nutcracker*) at your favorite theater in the same seats every time – and your seats are renewable year after year. Premium Series subscribers have the pick of the best seats in the theater. You can add on The Nutcracker tickets at the preferred subscriber rate.

*A special note for our West Palm Beach subscribers: Our 2024/25 season at the Kravis Center will run March and April 2025, as such we are currently offering a two-ballet subscription at Kravis Center featuring our Winter Mix and Spring Mix season programs. If your schedule permits, the fall and early summer ballets are easily added onto to your subscription with priority access to comparable seats, preferred pricing.

The most flexible subscription at great prices with all subscriber benefits included. For the 2024/25 Season you can select 3 or 4 performances and mix and match the dates and theaters that work best for you. With a CYO, your seats vary each year and each performance (i.e. you will not keep the same seats as you would with a Premium Series). Plus, save on The Nutcracker.

Premium Series subscribers enjoy the best seats and first access to purchase additional seats before they go on sale to the public. CYO subscribers enjoy flexible seating along with full subscriber benefits. Ticket prices are based on seat location or zone in the theater. All prices are listed in the season brochure, and on the MCB website and are subject to change.

We are committed to offering the flexibility you need and the excellence you have come to expect from Miami City Ballet. We want you to be as delighted by Miami City Ballet as we are to have you as a Subscriber.

Rest assured that should you need to change your subscription during the 2024/25 Season, we guarantee your ability to credit your purchase towards any future Miami City Ballet performance during the 2024/25 Season or donate your tickets to our nonprofit cause.

All account credits issued for 24/25 ballets need to be used by April 30, 2025 and must be used toward tickets to the current season. Credit will automatically be transferred into a tax-deductible donation after April 30.

There is no dress code for Miami City Ballet. Some people dress up, some come straight from work, others are more casual. A ‘smart casual’ approach will always be appropriate. It can be cool in the theater, so an extra layer is useful.

Unfortunately, we cannot exchange tickets from a past performance. To help prevent ticket holders from accidentally missing performances, we send pre-performance reminders by email before your show. If you don’t receive these reminders, contact Audience Services and they can sign you up. Please note that ticket exchanges must be made 48 hours in advance of your performance. Ticket donations must be made by box office close the day prior to your performance.

If you are requesting a ticket refund based on medical advice or extenuating circumstances, please contact Audience Services. After a representative assesses your service case a credit may be issued for a future performance. All credits expire on April 30th the season they were issued. Any unused credits are turned into a donation to MCB.

An approximate duration and intermissions is published on the MCB website. We also include this in the pre-performance emails sent to ticket-holders about 2 days prior to performance. As a general indication, most performances are approximately 2 hours long.

In most cases lost tickets can be replaced with a Lost Ticket Voucher (this is slightly different from a new ticket), but we will ask you to confirm the basic details of the booking to do this. Please contact us as soon as you realize you have mislaid your ticket’s.

At the theater – You may also visit MCB Audience Services at Will Call. With valid ID and/or Order Confirmation number, they can issue you a Lost Ticket Voucher.
