YOU CHOOSE
Choose Your Price puts the power of price in your hands. You decide from five price point options.
SIT ANYWHERE
Unlike traditional reserve pricing, the price you choose does not dictate where you sit. You have access to the best seats even if you choose the lowest ticket price.
What do the prices mean?
KŌWHAI: Come on in. Our most affordable tickets welcome you to choose your seat anywhere in the venue.
NIKAU: If you are looking to support the arts in a way that better fits your budget, this is the price for you.
RIMU: The recommended price, enabling us to continue delivering arts experiences to all.
KAURI: By paying a little more, you’re creating opportunities for others to attend while supporting those who make these events possible.
TŌTARA: Thank you for your generosity! Each Tōtara ticket purchased subsidises lower priced tickets, helping us open doors to new experiences for more people.
Please be kind – there are a limited number of Nikau and Kōwhai tickets available; more will be released each time Kauri and Tōtara tickets are sold.
