Please remove any unwanted tickets before finalizing your purchase; check the dollar amount of tickets in your basket BEFORE placing your order and authorizing your credit card.

Discounts, if available, may be applied once tickets are in the basket and applied BEFORE proceeding to Checkout. In the center of the shopping cart, a box will appear around the Regular Price with an arrow on the right hand side of the box.  Click on the arrow to see any discount that is available, to apply click the new price that appears below Regular Price.  If there is no box with an arrow around Regular Price, there is no price discount available.  Please note not all discounts are available online.

Apply a coupon code
Online coupons are accessed through a password.  This option will become available once tickets are in your basket. Enter then the password (if known) then the online coupons are applied by using the "Apply Discount" button to get the discount (select the discount that matches the password).

General admission
Patrons who purchase tickets to shows that are general admission are reminded that there is NO REPLACEMENT of a general admission ticket for any reason. The Box Office strongly recommends general admission tickets be held in Will Call and not mailed.

Are there additional costs if I choose to not purchase in person?
Yes.  Tickets sold online, over the phone or by mail are subject to a convenience fee. The convenience fee pays for costs associated with the Mansfield Box Office system.  The convenience fee is per ticket and non-refundable.

What is the credit card security code and why do I need to use it during an on-line transaction?
The card security code (CSC) is usually a 3 or 4-digit number that is not part of the credit card number. It is located on the back of a credit card (usually in the signature field). On some cards, all or part of the card number appears before the CSC. The CSC number appears only on the card itself (not on receipts or statements); therefore providing some assurance that the physical card is in the possession of the buyer.
