At the Austin Symphony Orchestra, we strive to make your ticketing process as easy as possible. This section provides a variety of helpful information to answer any questions you may have regarding items such as digital ticketing, exchanges, our new refund protection option, discounts, policies and more. Thank you for joining us!
TICKET EXCHANGES
Exchanges for single tickets may be made up to 48 hours prior to a performance for a different date or a different production within the current season. A fee of $4 per ticket will be applied. Any increase in ticket price must be paid at the time of the rebooking, credit will not be provided for less expensive tickets. Tickets may be returned for credit on account to be used later. The credit will be the value of the ticket minus the $4 exchange fee. All credits must be used for the current season.
Exchanges for subscribers will not incur a fee. Exchanges and donation requests for subscribers must be made to the Box Office before 4:00 pm on the performance day. Requests made after this deadline may not receive credit for the value of the tickets.
To request an exchange, contact our Box Office by email at boxoffice@austinsymphony.org or by phone at (512) 476-6064 Ext 3.
The Austin Symphony Orchestra DOES NOT OFFER REFUNDS on any ticket purchases. Ticket refund protection may be added to your order at the time of purchase. Refer to ticket refund protection information below.

WHY DIGITAL TICKETS?
Digital ticketing is a convenient, secure service that delivers your tickets to your mobile device using QR codes. Your QR codes will activate 3 hours prior to the performance start time and will refresh every 30 seconds.
Digital tickets provide you with an easy and safe way to receive and share your tickets with friends and family. No more stress over printer issues or misplaced tickets. Your tickets are always available in your digital wallet.
No App required!
HOW DO I ACCESS MY DIGITAL TICKETS?
It’s easy!
- Go to wallet.austinsymphony.org
- Enter the email address and password you use when purchasing tickets on the ASO website.
- Select “Stay Logged In” to stay logged in for 30 days.
- Once logged into your wallet, you can tap your event(s) to see all the details of your ticket(s).
You can also request an access code be sent to your email. If you forgot your password, click the Forgot Password button to reset your password.
You can now add your digital tickets to your Apple Wallet. Google Wallet does not yet support dynamic QR codes.
Step by step instructions can be found here or watch our video below.
MAY I PRINT MY DIGITAL TICKETS OR SEND SCREENSHOTS OF THEM TO OTHERS?
No. To keep your tickets safe and secure, printouts and screenshots are not accepted and cannot be scanned at the door. Once activated, the QR code on your digital ticket(s) updates every 30 seconds and can only be scanned directly from your mobile device.
MY TICKETS DON'T HAVE A QR CODE, WHAT DO I DO?
As a safety measure, the QR codes will not be visible on your tickets until 3 hours before the performance start time. Your QR code for your digital tickets will automatically appear in your digital wallet at that time.
Once you see the Share Tickets button in your wallet, you may share them, even if the QR codes have not yet been activated.
WHAT IF I DON'T HAVE A MOBILE DEVICE WITH A WEB BROWSER OR MY PHONE DIES?
No problem! While digital tickets require a mobile device to access your tickets, if you don’t have a mobile device, you can contact our Box Office to arrange pick-up of your printed tickets at “Will Call”.
If your phone dies stop by the box office venue for a ticket reprint. You will need to show a valid ID that matches the name on the tickets.
