Season Ticket Waiting List
-
The Tate Lecture Series has an extensive waiting list with over 600 patron names.
-
On average, we accept about 25 new patrons from the waiting list each year who are granted season tickets in the second balcony.
-
To be added to the waiting list, contact the Tate office at 214-768-8283 with your name, address, e-mail, and telephone number, or complete the new patron form and fax to 214-768-3570. Requests for season tickets from new patrons will be placed on the waiting list and considered in the order in which they are received.
-
When season tickets become available, the Tate office will contact patrons on the waiting list in order.
-
If you are contacted, you have three business days to respond and purchase season tickets.
-
Should you choose NOT to purchase the available season tickets at that time, they will be offered to the next person on the waiting list and you will keep your place in the queue for the following year.
Note: If you are contacted and do not respond, your information will be kept for one year, after which you will be removed from the list.

Stage: $60
First Balcony: $50
