This season, Summer Pops tickets will be sold as seated pods, available in increments of 4 and 6 people. You can bring fewer people, but if you will have more people in your party than 4 to 6, you will need to purchase pods that seat the number of tickets you need, and your pods will be seated next to each other. Children age 2 and older count as a number to make up your 4-person or 6-person pod.
Tickets need to be purchased in advance. Tickets will not be sold at Symphony Park.
