How do I exchange my subscription tickets to a different date?
It's easy to switch your dates for a show at Cap Stage. If you find a conflict in your schedule, you can request a new performance date by mail, fax, or phone. The only rule: we must receive your old tickets AT LEAST 24 hours in advance of your original date, so that someone else can buy the seats you can’t use. For subscribers, there's no cost or limit to this service as long as you exchange for a date within your plan. Call (916) 995-5464 for details.
