20% of Russians annually attend the theater and try not to miss the premieres. And, of course, they know well where to buy tickets. For those who are just going to visit the temple of art, the issue of purchasing tickets can be very acute. After all, it is far from always convenient to go to the box office to buy a treasured ticket.
Buying theater tickets is by no means always an easy task. It only seems that it is enough to come to the theater itself and take tickets at the box office. In fact, they may simply not be there. Resellers, middlemen and other theatergoers are buying up all tickets in advance. One for the purpose of choosing better places, the other for the acquisition of additional benefits.
However, all this does not mean at all that you will not succeed in going to the desired performance. You just need to know the options for buying tickets.
How to buy theater tickets
Naturally, no one canceled the purchase of tickets through the ticket office. You just need to worry about purchasing tickets in advance - after all, at the Melpomene Temple itself, only 30% of tickets are sold. So there will be an opportunity to choose better places, and the prices will be more democratic. The closer to the submission date, the more expensive the options remain.
You can buy tickets in specialized pavilions, which are at many stops and in the city center. There they will cost a little more. But there will be several options available from which you can choose the appropriate one. In addition, such ticket offices offer tickets to several different theaters at once. Therefore, you don’t have to run around the city in search of suitable documents for entry.
You can use various services on the Internet. There are quite a lot of them today - parter.ru, concert.ru and many others. In order to buy a theater ticket on the Internet, you need to go to the site, select the appropriate performance, location, date. Next, you will be offered different payment options - by credit card, online payments, cash, etc. You can also pick up tickets in various ways, for example, order courier delivery or choose pickup. Pickup, as a rule, is carried out from the offices of partner companies, which are located throughout the city. So you can always choose the right option and do not have to go through the city to pick up your paid tickets.
Some theaters also have a service such as Internet browsing. In order to purchase a ticket for a performance of interest to you, you need to queue and wait online. True, it is worthwhile to be prepared for the fact that in this way you will be able to visit the performance not soon. However, if the performance is rare and in demand, this may be the only chance to get on it. When the time is right and there will be free tickets, the operator will call you and offer to redeem the coveted ticket.
