Each year it seems I am asked this question, \u201chow could you be sold out already?\u201d\u00a0 This normally comes with concerts that the public finds most appealing.\u00a0From past years, Kelli Pickler, Kenny G, and Marie Osmond come to mind.<\/p>\n
Over the seven years of existence of the Niswonger Performing Arts Center, we have created, learned, and tweaked the way we offer tickets to the public.\u00a0While we are always looking to build our audiences and expand our outreach, we also wish to reward those who consistently support us.\u00a0 Because of this, we release tickets in different ways at different times.<\/p>\n
Many of you know that members, grand series, and select series buyers have already had the opportunity to buy tickets.\u00a0 These are people who either monetarily support us and\/or also support us regularly through ticket purchases.<\/p>\n
Each concert has an individual release date attached to it.\u00a0 Any remaining tickets that have not been \u201ceaten up\u201d by the aforementioned processes are then released for sale.\u00a0This is typically 90 days before the concert\/event date.<\/p>\n
Many, especially from out of town, are surprised and sometimes dismayed that there are no tickets left when they call a few minutes past noon on the day of single ticket release.\u00a0\u201cHow could that be?\u201d we are asked.\u00a0 Well, folks, this is the explanation.\u00a0 And we try to get the word out to everyone, but some are just unreachable, so it seems!<\/p>\n
One of our most popular concerts for this season, Country music superstar Josh Turner releases single tickets today and there may not be many left to purchase.\u00a0By the time we finish Tuesday\u2019s business, we may have less than 50 tickets remaining for the single release.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s funny when I talk to people who are dismayed they couldn\u2019t get tickets; because when I ask them about three or more concerts I think they might also like to attend, they agree.\u00a0 I then explain that they could have purchased them earlier and been assured of the one concert they are now shut out of.\u00a0 Oh well \u2026 all we can do is keep trying to get the word out as much as possible.<\/p>\n
Don\u2019t be shut out of the next Niswonger concert you want to attend!\u00a0 I encourage you to look at the entire season now and plan ahead.\u00a0 Select Series tickets can literally be purchased right up until the last three concerts of the season.\u00a0 And new this year, they can be purchased on-line 24\/7.\u00a0Right now, several others look like they have sold-out status stamped on them.\u00a0 Kenny Rogers, The Temptations, and a few others are not far behind.\u00a0 Some problems are good problems.\u00a0 We are grateful we have the opportunity to deal with these kinds of problems from time to time.<\/p>\n
