Priority Seating

All Circle donors are part of priority seating, affording the opportunity to purchase the best seats in the house prior to the general public. Wharton Center’s subscribers are seated on a priority system involving both donation level and consecutive years of subscription ticket history. Season tickets go on sale to the general public after all priorities are seated.

Renewable Seating

Renewable Seats are available to donors who make a one-time gift of $75,000 or more to one of Wharton Center's unrestricted endowment funds; donors are entitled to the right-of-first-refusal to four seats of their choice (based on availability) for their personal subscription order during their lifetime. These seats are for personal use only and cannot be transferred to anyone else.
