Does MATCH sell tickets for all events?

Not always.

MATCH is a rental facility that hosts performances and events presented by independent arts organizations and producers. While MATCH provides ticketing services for many events, some presenters manage their own ticket sales through external ticketing platforms.

Ticketing information for each event is listed on its individual event page.

If an event is being ticketed by the presenter, please contact the presenter directly regarding ticket purchases, exchanges, refunds, or other ticketing questions.

Box Office Support Fee

MATCH is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to support small- to mid-sized arts organizations by subsidizing space rentals and essential services that help artists present their work.

The $ 5 per ticket Box Office Support Fee helps fund comprehensive ticketing and box office services for this event, including 24-hour online ticket sales through the MATCH website, box office staffing, and on-site customer support during the performance.

Event producers may choose to either include this fee in the ticket price or list it separately at checkout. This fee is charged per ticket and applies to all purchases, whether made online or in person.

Subscriptions & passes are subject to a $2 per-ticket fee.
