Am I able to purchase tickets through a third party vendor?

The Milwaukee Symphony Box Office and website is the official ticketing provider for all our performances and events. In some cases, valid tickets are also sold directly through box offices at our other performance venues, including the Pabst Theater Group and the Sharon Lynn Wilson Center.

We do not encourage our tickets to be resold. Third party vendors, or brokers, are in violation of our ticketing policy at all venues, and those orders are subject to cancellation without notice. The Milwaukee Symphony cannot, and does not, guarantee the validity of tickets purchased through third parties, and is not liable for invalid tickets purchased via third-party ticketing sites (such as Stubhub or SeatGeek), auction sites (such as eBay), classifieds (such as Craigslist), or any other ticket broker. We cannot replace lost or stolen third-party tickets. Please note that tickets purchased from third parties may be priced much higher than the ticket's actual face value, and we will be unable to contact holders of such tickets about program changes or cancellations.
