Arts Centre Melbourne is committed to displaying fees and charges up front so consumers are aware of these prior to booking.
A service charge of up to $8.95 per transaction may apply to bookings made online, by phone or by mail. This fee goes towards providing, maintaining and updating the website and to supplement the ticketing facilities and services we provide.
You may also choose to have tickets sent to you by Regular, Registered or Express Mail (extra fees apply).
Refunds are not available unless the performance is cancelled or if permitted in accordance with the LPA Code of Practice for the Ticketing of Live Entertainment Events in Australia.
Exchanges are only permitted under specific circumstances. For more information on refunds and exchanges, please see our Ticketing Terms and Conditions or call our Contact Centre on 1300 182 183.
If your booking was made directly through Arts Centre Melbourne you can collect tickets from our main Box Office in the Theatres Building (under the Spire) Monday - Saturday, 10:00am to 8:00pm and Sunday, 10:00am to 5:00pm from the priority queue or from the Hamer Hall Box Office Monday - Sunday, 10:00am to 5:45pm. You can collect any time after you have received confirmation of your order at either location. If you're collecting within 2 - 3 hours of the performance time, please go straight to the venue you're attending.
Any bookings not made through Arts Centre Melbourne direct (for example, through our Resident Companies or authorised ticketing agencies) can only be collected one hour prior to the performance start time, from the venue you are attending.
If you’re collecting in the hour-and-a-half before the show for the Sidney Myer Music Bowl, please proceed to Gate 1, unless signaled onsite to an alternative area.
The best way to ensure you’re getting what you paid for is to purchase tickets through an authorised Ticketing Service Provider. Please refer to the event page to check the authorised Ticketing Service Providers for a particular event or contact us on 1300 182 183 for more information.
Avoid buying tickets through unauthorised third party websites that sell secondary (or second-hand) tickets, as there’s no guarantee the tickets will be valid for entry at the venue. Tickets purchased from unauthorised third party websites may be cancelled without notice.
