General Questions

Please email tickets@sandiegosymphony.org with your inquiry and a ticket office representative will reply as quickly as possible. To contact by phone, please call 619-235-0804. Wait times can be lengthy, making email the most efficient method of contacting a ticket office representative.

Subscriptions

Subscribers may exchange a limited number of concerts in their subscription package by contacting the ticket office. Individual concert tickets cannot be exchanged or refunded, but can be donated as a tax-deductible gift by contacting the ticket office.
The Jacobs Music Center Ticket Office is closed until late summer 2024. The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park Box Office is open the following hours:
Weekdays: 10am-6pm
Weekends: Noon-5pm
Concert Days: Noon-Intermission
As a subscriber, it is your right to ask for seat improvement during each subscription renewal period. At that point, you are only competing with other returning subscribers for improved or upgraded seats. Please note, however: there are certain seating sections of Symphony Hall (generally the Grand Tier) which can only be accessed by subscribers who participate in significant annual donation programs. (Call Development at 619.315.3908 for further information.)
Subscription tickets are delivered digitally via The San Diego Symphony mobile app or, upon request, can be printed and delivered via US Mail. Subscription tickets purchased prior to September 1 will be delivered no later than two weeks prior to the start of the Jacobs Music Center season.

Single Tickets

Children age 2 and older must have a valid ticket for entry. Children younger than 5 years are not permitted in the concert hall for classical performances, however, are welcome at non-classical, film and family presentations.
This option provides online patrons the opportunity to round up their purchase to make a small donation to the San Diego Symphony, which is a non-profit organization. Your support is appreciated.
Tickets can be transferred via The San Diego Symphony mobile app. FOLLOW THIS LINK for instructions.
Print at home tickets and/or screenshots will not be admissible for entry.

Pricing

Fixed subscription packages will include a $25 fee for all tickets in the subscription package. Add-on tickets may enjoy a discount similar to subscription concerts, but handling and facility fees will be added on. For Choose Your Own, all qualifying concerts will receive a 15% discount, but each concert will be charged the $5 facility fee and a variable handling fee as well. (Note: no $25 subscription fee will be charged for a CYO package.) Any Holiday or Opening Night add-on tickets purchased in the same transaction will receive no discount and will be charged the full $5 facility fee and a variable handling fee, based on the ticket price. Individual concert tickets will include a $5 facility fee and a variable handling fee, based on the ticket price.
