The lobby generally opens one hour before showtime. Check the delivery method on your ticket order: for email, you can print at home or show the tickets a mobile device. For will call, pick up your tickets at the box office prior to your performance, located on Level 3 via the City Hall elevator, or street level from the North Park main entrance.

Dress Code
There is no dress code for attending LOH events. Please dress comfortably as you would in any public space. Coming to a show is a special occasion, so some of our patrons choose to dress up, but that choice is entirely yours. We do ask that you be aware of your choice of scents, colognes and perfumes, as you will be in fairly close quarters.
Arrival
Theater doors usually open 30 minutes before show time and we recommend arriving in Lebanon at least 45 minutes before the start of a show. Do your best to be prompt! For most shows, late patrons will wait outside the theater with an usher before being escorted into the theater during a suitable pause. This allows us to minimize the disturbance to the artists and patrons.
Experience
We sincerely hope you enjoy your visit to LOH; please do not hesitate to ask any staff member for help or assistance.

I bought tickets through secondary market sources (i.e. “scalpers”) online or in person. Are my tickets legit?
LOH does not endorse using any third party ticket resale sources. Our Box Office can not resolve any issues involving them, such as lost tickets or bogus tickets. Tickets for all of our shows are sold via lebanonoperahouse.org, in person at the Box Office at Lebanon Opera House, or by phone at 603.448.0400.
Tickets are sometimes available through artists’ fan club sites as pre-sales or special VIP packages. Very rarely, LOH will authorize the sale of tickets for less than face value through third party vendors. When in doubt, always call to ask. LOH has the right to cancel ticket transactions that are suspected of being purchased for the sole purpose of reselling (scalping).
What time does the show actually start/when do doors open?
The time on your ticket is when the show is scheduled to start. Of course, some artists are more punctual than others! In the case of General Admission shows, be aware that there may be a line forming up to one hour before a show in the lobby.
Is there an opening act?
When possible, the inclusion of an opening act will be announced ahead of time, however artists will sometimes bring a surprise opener with them. Either way the show will start with the opening act at the advertised time and the headliner will follow. If a show is billed as “an evening with”, there is no opening act.
How do you define “Senior” and “Child” priced tickets?
Unless otherwise noted, prices for seniors are 65 and older and children are 17 and younger. On occasion, a show will have “student” pricing which includes any student currently enrolled in an educational institution, with a valid student ID. Children younger than two who will sit on a lap do not need a ticket.
What time does the show end?
This varies greatly with each show, but most are over before 10 pm.
What are your policies regarding photo/video/audio?
LOH does not allow flash photography as it can be distracting to other patrons. The individual artists often have their own policies, but many allow non-flash photography with personal use cameras and prohibit video recording. More restrictive photo policies will be posted and announced at the show.
Are shows ‘all ages’?
Unless otherwise noted, shows at Lebanon Opera House are all ages. Children younger than two will be admitted free (sitting on a lap), otherwise, everyone must have a ticket. For young children, please be aware that many events at LOH are loud (85dBA+); feel free to bring protective headphones for your child or use your hands to cover their ears. Certain shows may have age restrictions but that will be evident on the event sales page online.
What is your non-smoking policy?
Smoking and vaping are 100% prohibited and will not be tolerated. There are three designated smoking areas a short walk from the doors of LOH, including one across the street at the northeast corner of Colburn Park.
I ordered tickets online but didn’t receive the confirmation. What do I do?
When you successfully complete an online ticket purchase a confirmation number is displayed in the order window. If you don’t see this when ordering then your purchase has not been completed.
An email confirmation will also be sent. If you don’t receive the email check your spam or junk folder for the confirmation. If it’s not there, please call the box office.
I’ve lost my tickets. What do I do?
Call or stop by the box office and we will do our best to get you your tickets.
May tickets be refunded or exchanged?
All ticket sales are final and non-refundable. Tickets to some performances may be returned to the box office at any time before a show as a tax-deductible donation to Lebanon Opera House.
I ordered tickets online but I did not see an option to have my tickets mailed to me.
The following delivery methods are available from the “Your Ticket Selections” screen:
- Email – You will receive an email containing one or more attachments (PDF documents) that serve as printable or digital tickets.
- Will Call – No tickets will be sent to you. Simply show up at the box office on the day of the event(s) and provide your name.
Is food and alcohol available during the show?
Food and drink options vary for each show. Please check your pre-show email prior to your performance for details on concessions.
How do I request an appearance by my favorite artist?
We always welcome programming suggestions. You can email your recommendations to info@lebanonoperahouse.org.
May I dance during a performance?
During high-energy, music performances, you are allowed to stand at your seat. Please be courteous to those around you. You are also allowed to stand at the rear of the auditorium. All aisles must remain clear through the performance.
Will my bag be searched?
At this time, we are not intentionally searching bags. We do withhold the right to request a bag search if we suspect a patron is smoking or vaping in the venue, carrying food or alcohol, or has items intended to harm the audience. Patron may be asked to leave the premises.
