Waterville Creates believes that all youth, regardless of income, ability, or background, should have access to outstanding arts programming and arts education opportunities. In an effort to remove cost as a barrier to participation, we have created a dedicated fund to support free admission for youth ages 18 and under to the full range of programming offered by Waterville Creates and its divisions, including art classes and camps, community theatre productions, live music, and film programming.

CLICK HERE for more information about the Youth Arts Access Fund. YAAF tickets are not available online, please contact the Box Office.

Children ages 3 and up require tickets. Children under the age of 3 years old may sit on an adult’s lap and do not require a ticket. Our productions are intended to appeal to a broad age range. Not every event is suitable for all ages. Please consider your child’s maturity, attention span, interest, and ability to sit still before purchasing tickets.

Accessible seating is available only on the orchestra level. The elevator does not access balcony seating. Patrons who have difficulty climbing stairs should purchase tickets in the orchestra level. Depending on the popularity of an event, ADA seating may only be available for purchase through the Box Office (207.873.7000). This is done to ensure those seats remain available for those who need them.

Listening devices are available for theatre productions. Please visit the technician at the sound board at the back of the orchestra section to request a listening device.

Ticket scammers are on the rise! The Waterville Opera House cannot guarantee any tickets purchased from a third-party vendor. Always purchase tickets directly through our website or from our Box Office staff.

We do not mail tickets.

When ordered online, tickets can be retained at the Box Office or emailed to the patron. Electronic tickets will come in the form of a PDF attachment with a barcode that must be displayed and scanned upon entry. Printing these tickets is preferred and will help reduce wait times, but a smartphone display can also be used. Please have the barcode ready and available to scan upon arrival to the theatre. Order confirmations and ticket emails will come from “Waterville Creates.”

Tickets may be picked up in advance of the performance at the Daytime Box Office during regular hours (see above). Will Call opens one hour prior to show time, located 1st Floor of City Hall.

Members enjoy a 15% discount on all Opera House events, a one-week presale window, and advance notice of upcoming events. CLICK HERE to become a member!

For most performances, the house will open for seating 30-60 minutes before show time. A pre-show email will be sent to all ticket holders 24-48 hours prior to an event, this email will give the specific time the doors will open for that event.

Many of our shows contain strobes and other lighting effects, smoke, and loud sound effects. If you are concerned about sensitivity to any of these, please contact the Box Office in advance for more information.
