TICKETS & DURING THE PERFORMANCE

  • Tickets are $25-$65 plus service & processing fee. Prices vary according to the seat/block selected by the patron.
  • Children up to 3 years old may sit on their parent's lap. Any child 3 years and older needs their own ticket.
  • Please note, Row O (first row of the balcony), or Row T (behind the stairs) may be hard for young children to see the show, due to the balcony walls.
  • If you are buying tickets for a group of 8 or more, please get in touch with us for a group discount of 10%: [email protected].
  • Toronto's most family-friendly Nutcracker welcomes all! We understand children can get excited and we will accomodate that as much as possible. However, if you are attending with a young child, and for some reason they get upset during the performance to a degree where it's disruptive for the rest of the audience, our ushers might need to ask you to temporarily leave the theatre. You can always come back when the child is quieted.
