Want a great price and the same great seats all year?

Becoming a subscriber to one or more of the three series at Sangamon Auditorium secures you the same seat, a great price, and locks the event dates on your calendar.  Most of us have an ever-increasing habit of making last-minute decisions about our schedules, but aren't a few events worth some advance planning?  When you buy tickets to a live event in advance, you lock the date in your calendar, you pay in advance, and you are able to plan your week around the event.  Who will go with you?  Will you go to dinner in advance?  What will you wear?  Being able to focus on these details makes a live event so much more enjoyable!

So what's the hang-up?

Are you worried you would lose your tickets if you buy them so far in advance?  Don't be.  Our Ticket Office can reprint *any* of your tickets based on your account information, and for subscriber tickets, that reprint is FREE (typically, the reprint will cost $1 per ticket).

Are you worried that something will come up and you will be unable to attend an event?  You can always gift your tickets to a friend or colleague.  Or if you contact the Ticket Office 24 hours prior to the event, you can receive paperwork confirming the value of your tickets as a tax-deductible donation to the University of Illinois Foundation.

Are you concerned that it's a lot of money to pay up front?  For many of us, it is a lot of up-front money, but the savings is up to 25% off the ticket prices if you bought them outside of a subscription package.  If you think about it that way, it's like every fourth ticket you purchase in a subscription is FREE!

You can get all the information you need about becoming a subscriber on our website, but the short scoop is this:


As an added benefit this year, subscribers will receive a keytag good for 25% off any entree at Engrained Brewing Company on Sangamon Auditorium show nights!

Please join us as a 2015-2016 subscriber!
