Fees

The box office policies for the 2025 Festival season include specific fees associated with ticket purchases. There is a standard $2.50 transaction fee applied per order for any showing, event, or party within the Festival season. There are additional venue-specific processing fees for certain showings:

• Ted Shawn Theatre and Doris Duke Theatre: $5.00 per ticket
• Henry J. Leir Stage: $3.00 per ticket

In an effort to promote financial inclusivity, fees may be waived at the box office on a case-by-case basis, subject to manager approval.

In addition to covering administrative expenses, a portion of the proceeds from these ticket fees goes towards supporting The Pillow’s National Historic Landmark grounds and buildings. By attending events and purchasing tickets, patrons contribute to the preservation and maintenance of this historic site, ensuring its continued availability for future generations to enjoy. This dual purpose of ticket fees serves not only to facilitate the smooth operation of the Festival season but also to contribute to the sustainability and stewardship of The Pillow’s cultural and architectural heritage.

Ticket Pickup Policy

Starting June 25 (the first day of performances), patrons can pick up their tickets at the Box Office. When purchasing tickets, patrons can choose Digital Ticket Delivery (sent electronically) or Will Call (tickets printed and held for pickup at the Box Office during the week of your performance).

Important: Beginning one hour before the first performance each day, the Box Office will only handle ticket sales for that evening’s shows. During this time, we cannot process ticket pickups, exchanges, or future-date transactions. To pick up all your season tickets at once, please visit the Box Office before that daily cutoff.

Exchanges

Exchanges are available based only on availability. There is a $5 per order exchange fee prior to a performance. Package holders to 6+ performances and Jacob’s Pillow Members receive free exchanges up to 48 hours prior to a show. Tickets may be exchanged between venues for the value of the higher priced ticket; differences in ticket prices cannot be refunded. We cannot guarantee comparable seating.

Ticket Vouchers

Jacob’s Pillow ticket vouchers can be obtained by emailing [email protected], and can be used towards ticket purchases. Our box office staff will be able to facilitate a digital ticket voucher that is valid through the end of the calendar year of which it is purchased.

Jacob’s Pillow is committed to providing an inclusive experience for all guests.

• Wheelchair-accessible seating available at all venues.
• Assistive listening devices upon request.

Programming Updates

All programming, pricing, and casting is subject to change.

Jacob’s Pillow occasionally must issue a day-of cancellation of an outdoor performance due to inclement weather, such as current or impending rain, high heat, or air quality concerns. In the event of inclement weather on the date of an outdoor performance, all ticket holders who have purchased a Rain or Shine ticket will be accommodated indoors in an alternate venue with limited capacity at Jacob’s Pillow, at the scheduled showtime. A limited number of Rain or Shine tickets are available for each performance, and may sell out sooner than other ticket types.

All other ticket types are considered “Shine Only” and in case of inclement weather will have their funds moved on-account. These funds can then be used to purchase a future ticket, donate the ticket back to Jacob’s Pillow as a tax deductible donation, or request a refund. On-account funds will expire December 31, 2025 and will be converted to a tax deductible donation unless otherwise specified.
