Season Ticket Benefits
Season Ticket Holders get priority access to the best seats, discounted ticket prices, free ticket exchanges, and more:
We’d like to encourage subscribers to consider using digital tickets this season, as it helps with tracking exchanges, removes the need for reprinting lost tickets, and saves significant time and money. Please indicate whether you prefer digital or printed tickets when you place your order.
Marathon subscribers are eligible for one pass for each event of the season.
Choral Union subscribers are eligible for six free event parking passes.
Chamber Arts, Jazz, and Series:You subscribers are eligible for four free event parking passes.
The first installment will be processed upon receipt of your order, with subsequent installments billed to your credit card on or around July 10 and August 7.
If you work for U-M, you can have the cost of your tickets withdrawn through payroll deduction. Just place your order by Friday, May 30, and the deductions will be made in your June, July, August, and September paychecks. Payroll deduction orders are not availabl online; they must be placed by phone or mail.
Season tickets will be sent in early August, or after the final installment is charged. There is a $15 service charge for all season ticket orders (per order, not per ticket). Individual event prices listed in our printed brochure and on the web are guaranteed through Friday, July 25, 2025.

Seating Priority
We get a lot of questions about how and when seating is assigned. If you have specific requests, we encourage you to indicate those in your order notes, and we’ll do our best to meet your needs. Renewing subscribers may place their orders on Tuesday, April 22, nine days before new subscribers. After the renewal deadline (May 30, 2025), we will begin seating subscribers in the following order:
Marathon Series Subscribers
Those who purchase the Marathon Series, which includes every event in the season, are seated first, by date received, with priority given to donors of $1,000 or more within each date.
Donor Subscribers
Subscribers who also donate $1,000 or more are seated in date order by donation level (all package types).
Fixed Package Subscribers
Those who purchase Fixed packages (Choral Union, Chamber Arts, Jazz, Dance, and Theater) are seated next, by date received. Renewing Choral Union and Chamber Arts subscribers automatically receive their same seats. All seats ordered by Fixed Package subscribers, including upgrade requests, additional tickets, or additional Series:You packages, are assigned
during this process.
Series:You Subscribers
Those who purchase Series:You are seated next, by date received. Additional ticket requests are seated at the same time as the Series:You package We often get questions about why subscribers are not able to select their own seats when ordering subscription packages online. The ticketing system that we license is not able to fully accommodate the flexibility we offer, particularly on Series:You subscriptions, which allow a lot of customization. We have explored several different systems, and none of them currently offers online seat selection given the level of customization we like to provide our subscribers.
After the initial seating process is complete, usually in late June, we can accommodate those who wish to choose their own seats either in-person at the League Ticket Office (Monday-Friday, 1-5 pm) or by phone (Monday-Friday, 10 am to 5 pm). Subscription packages are still available online but will show only the section and not the specific seat location.
