• First Time Free: Never been to Olney Theatre? You can get 4 free tickets to preview performances of one of our shows during the first three to five performances of a run. These tickets are usually available approximately 30 days in advance of the first performance. In order to qualify, you must be a new customer with no purchase or attendance history in our database.

Available Now: First Time Free

If you've never been to Olney Theatre Center before, you may be eligible to reserve four free tickets to a preview performance of Hello, Dolly! only on November 6, 7, & 8. Use the promo code 1stTimeFree before selecting your seats to redeem.

Furloughed Federal Workers

Furloughed workers can claim two free tickets to performances 1/2 hour prior to the performance time, pending availability. Patrons should be prepared to share their name, address, phone and email, as well as the government department from which they are furloughed.

Second-Party Discounters

For select performances, we sometimes partner with TodayTix and Certifikid to provide discounts. Tickets purchased through those vendors must contact the vendor directly for issues related to refund requests, cancelations, or rescheduling. We never partner with second-party vendors or ticket procurement services that charge above our listed ticket prices. If you're paying more than our listed top ticket price or a handling fee in excess of our $7 fee, you're being ripped off.
