Jefferson Theater
Visiting Jefferson Theater
Getting there & parking
We do not have any on site parking, however, we recommend that our patrons park in the Water Street Parking Garage (100 and 200 blocks of East Water Street) which is a very short walk to the theater. Please note that the garages close at certain times, therefore plan accordingly to avoid your vehicle being locked inside until the garage reopens the following day.
Accessibility
For General Admission or GA Floor with Reserved Balcony shows, patrons requesting accessible seating should purchase a ticket at the preferred price level and contact us at 434.245.4980 to make arrangements. For Fully Reserved shows, accessible seating is initially available at every price level while supplies last, and may be viewed by clicking the "Show accessible seating" filter on the event ticketing page.
Children & age policy
Unless otherwise posted the Jefferson is all ages. We do suggest a guardian accompany any patrons under the age of 14. Children 3 and under are not required to have a ticket to Jefferson Theater shows as long as their parents have a general admission ticket. If the parents have a reserved seat ticket, then all accompanying children must also have their own ticketed seat. We strongly encourage close supervision and ear protection for our youngest show attendees.
