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
  • Valid passport
  • State-issued yellow papers, accompanied by a photo ID (such as a clipped ID, student ID or military ID).

What if I left an item in coat check, forgot to close my tab, or lost an item at First Avenue?
Contact us in the office Monday through Friday (11:00am - 6:00pm) at 612.338.8388 so we can verify that we have your item and arrange a time for pickup.

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.

Sightline can only by reserved online through First-Avenue.com. Table reservations become available for purchase at the same time each show goes on sale. 
Tables are randomly assigned, but location preferences can be requested in the Notes area during checkout and we will do our best to accommodate your request.
