*** IMPORTANT TICKETING & POLICY INFO ***

TICKETS: VCC works with a will-call system, meaning we do not print physical tickets. To gain entry, simply check in at the box office the night of the show with your ticket confirmation (printout or phone) or a valid ID. NEVER BUY TICKETS FROM A THIRD PARTY WEBSITE. Our website and Box Office are the ONLY places that sell legitimate tickets to our shows.

LATE ENTRY: Entering the room mid-show is distracting. Please be respectful and arrive on time! If you arrive at a show more than 30 minutes after the scheduled showtime, you WILL NOT be admitted and will NOT be issued a refund.

AUDIENCE ETIQUETTE: We want EVERYONE to have a good time. We encourage you to laugh a lot and interact with performers when invited. During the show, do not chat at your table or shout unsolicited comments at performers. Disruptive patrons WILL BE EJECTED and will not receive a refund.

REFUNDS: We do not offer ticket refunds. The ONLY exception is if the venue or performer has to cancel or reschedule a show (in which case you will be given the option to receive a refund).

If you can no longer attend a show for any reason (illness, weather, unforeseen circumstances, etc.), you may:

1. Transfer your ticket to another person who is able to attend, or
2. Request a credit in our system to be used toward seeing a future show.

This must happen PRIOR to the scheduled show time by contacting the Box Office at boxoffice@vtcomedy.com or 802.859.0100. We cannot provide refunds OR credits to customers who contact us after the start time of the show.

We do NOT provide refunds due to dissatisfaction with the show.
