Frequently Asked Questions

Can I attend an event that is listed as 18+/21+ if I'm under 18 years of age?
Underage persons can only attend age-limited events if they are accompanied by their own parent or legal guardian, who will require their own ticket.
- Could an older sibling, relative or friend's parent accompany?
Unfortunately, no. - What if my 18th birthday is only in xxx days/months?
Nope. This is a steadfast policy and we allow for no exceptions.
Why is a show 18+?
Age limitations are determined by a variety of factors, but are usually decided by the performer's management.
Will I need an ID to attend an event at First Avenue? What forms of ID are valid?
Yes, you will need an ID to enter the venue during 18+ and 21+ events, and also to claim will call tickets. Approved forms of ID are:
- Valid driver's license

Does First Avenue offer seating?
We're primarily a general admission, standing room event venue. We do offer a limited number of table reservations.
Sightline seating tables are located along the railings of the venue's second floor. Each table is $65 and comes with a maximum of 2 chairs. Table reservations DO NOT include admission, thus regular event tickets need to be purchased separately.
