Ordering Tickets and Gift Certificates
4 Ways to Buy Tickets
1. Pick your seat
Using the same "real time" seating map that we do here in the Box Office, patrons can choose their own seats at whartoncenter.com's online Box Office. This is the only true way to actually pick your own seat in your favorite row or section. Use this real time industry leading tool, to find the perfect seat for you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You can pick them up here or we can mail them to you (free of charge), it's your choice. There is a per ticket fee for this option.
2. Speak with an experienced representative
If you don't like the internet, or you just want to speak to someone who knows the theatre, you can call us toll free at 1-800-WHARTON and let one of our operators help you with your purchase. All of our operators have attended performances in each of the 4 theatres that we service. We know our theatres! The call center is open Monday – Friday from 10am-6pm and 12noon-6pm on Saturdays. You can pick them up here or we can mail them to you (free of charge), it's your choice. There is a per-order charge for this option.
3. Pay us a visit
If you want some face-to-face service, you can visit us at the Box Office (located in the main lobby of the Wharton Center, on Bogue Street between Shaw Lane and Wilson Road.) Regular box office hours are 10am-6pm Monday-Friday and 12noon-6pm on Saturdays. There is no charge for this option.

Purchase Limits
When purchasing tickets from the Wharton Center, you are limited to a specific number of tickets for each event. This limit is included on the unique event page and is verified with every transaction. This policy is in effect to discourage unfair ticket buying practices and reselling. Ticket limits vary depending on the event or the anticipated demand for the event.
Gift Certificates
Gift Certificates can be purchased over the phone or at the boxoffice window. Gift Certificates can only be redeemed at the boxoffice window. Unfortunately the Wharton Center Box Office cannot hold tickets unpaid until the Gift Certificate is presented. In addition, tickets purchased on the internet with credit card cannot be "reversed" by crediting the charge card and using the Gift Certificate after the sale.
