Walnut Creek, California 94596 - Introduction: We will shut down all ticket sales for approximately three days!
On March 10, the Lesher Center for the Arts, and its partners, Bedford Gallery and Center REP, will be transitioning to an exciting new online ticket-selling platform: SPEKTRIX.
This new system, widely used at arts organizations throughout the US and UK, will bring us state-of-the-art functionality and will help make ticket purchasing for all events easier. It will also give patrons greater flexibility to control communications and preferences.
In order to transition to our new ticketing system, we will need to shut down all ticket sales for approximately three days.
Our current ticketing system will shut down SUNDAY, MARCH 9 at approximately 11:30PM.
Our new ticketing system will go “live” on THURSDAY, MARCH 13 at approximately 10:00AM.
During this time you will still be able to browse our Lesher Center websites to explore upcoming performances and events—but you will not be able to reserve your tickets until the new system launches.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and we will work to get ticket-purchasing access up and running as soon as we’re able. You will receive an email once the new system is activated.
THANK YOU for being a supportive patron of the Lesher Center for the Arts as we work to enhance our systems.
