Ticket Policies


All sales are final. Performances, schedules, programs and artists are subject to change.

No refunds will be given unless a performance is cancelled in its entirety, with no replacement performance scheduled. In case of inclement weather, patrons should come prepared for the elements.

All persons, regardless of age, must have a ticket for ticketed performances at the Filene Center (Children’s performances included) and The Barns at Wolf Trap.

Ticket Upgrades: Patrons may upgrade their seat, including exchanging lawn seats for in-house seats, and pay the difference in price. If a show is sold out in-house, patrons should come prepared for the elements. There are no refunds, exchanges, or rain checks given to ticket holders due to inclement weather.

Lost Tickets: Lost tickets may be reprinted in person at the Box Office prior to your performance. Patrons must provide proof of purchase, typically a photo ID, which will be used to confirm the patron’s identity as the original purchaser.

Tax-Deductible Ticket Donations: Patrons may donate unused tickets back to Wolf Trap Foundation. Tickets may be donated in person at the Box Office before a performance begins. Patrons will receive a receipt for a tax-deductible donation.

Service Charges and Fees: Online and phone purchases are subject to a per ticket and per order fee.
