BEFORE YOU BUY FRONT ROW SEATS:
Orchestra Pit / Standing & Dancing Policy
The Claremont Opera House strives to create an enjoyable live-event experience for all patrons. For certain concerts and performances, particularly rock, pop, tribute, and other high-energy music events, patrons may be permitted to stand, dance, and enjoy the performance in the orchestra pit area directly in front of the stage.
Patrons purchasing seats in the front rows should be aware that their view may occasionally be affected by patrons standing or dancing in the orchestra pit. The level of activity in the pit will vary depending on the type of performance and audience participation. By purchasing seats in the front rows, patrons acknowledge that standing or dancing may occur in front of their seating area during applicable events.
Use of the orchestra pit for standing and dancing is a privilege and is subject to the following expectations:
Patrons using the pit should remain close to the stage and make reasonable efforts not to unnecessarily obstruct seated patrons.
Moshing, aggressive dancing, pushing, shoving, rough physical activity, crowd surfing, or other unsafe behavior is prohibited. Aisles, stairs, exits, and access routes must remain clear at all times.
Patrons must follow instructions from Claremont Opera House staff, security personnel, ushers, and event personnel.
COH reserves the right to limit or discontinue access to the orchestra pit at any time based on crowd conditions, safety concerns, the nature of the event, or direction from public-safety officials.
Patrons whose conduct is disruptive, unsafe, aggressive, or interferes with the reasonable enjoyment of others may be directed to leave the pit or removed from the venue without refund.
Front-row ticket holders should select their seats with this policy in mind. For events where standing or dancing is anticipated, COH cannot guarantee that front-row sightlines will remain completely unobstructed throughout the performance.
BUYER BEWARE: HOW TO AVOID TICKET SCAMS:
Ticket-selling scams happen when a scammer uses tickets as bait to steal your money. The scammer usually sells fake tickets or you pay for a ticket, but never receive it. They are common when tickets for popular concerts, plays, and sporting events sell out. Scammers, including individuals and fake resale companies, take advantage of the situation by:
- Charging prices much higher than the face value of a ticket
- Creating counterfeit tickets with forged barcodes and logos of real ticket companies
- Selling duplicates of a legitimate ticket and emailing it to several buyers.
- Pretending to sell tickets online to steal your credit card information
HERE’S HOW YOU CAN COMBAT TICKET SCAMMERS AND PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL AND FINANCIAL INFORMATION:
DO:
- Buy tickets at the Claremont Opera House box office 603-542-4433
- Buy tickets directly from cohnh.org/events
DON’T:
- Don’t wire transfer money to pay for tickets.
- Don’t trust sellers who want you to pay with a prepaid money card.
- Don’t pay before seeing the tickets
- Don’t meet an individual ticket seller alone or in a low-traffic area.
- Don’t automatically trust online search results for ticket sellers. Search results can include paid ads, sellers that charge high fees, and scams.
REPORT TICKET SCAMS:
There are several options to report a ticket scam:
- Contact your state consumer protection office.
- Contact the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) using the Online Complaint Assistant.
- File a local police report, especially if you met the scammer in person or have a picture of them to give the police.
- File a complaint about a ticket company using the Better Business Bureau’s Scam Tracker.
- If you paid by credit card, report the problem to the card company. You may be able to dispute the charge.
