All admission is by timed-entry ticket only, and tickets must be purchased in advance. In years past, the organizer has added additional dates during the show's run, so check back for updates. Tickets may be purchased online or by phone.
FLEX ticketing allows advance purchase of tickets that can be used any night during the show's run, which sells out early on popular dates.
