IS THE NCA HANDICAP ACCESSIBLE?
Yes, both the Main Street and West Pearl Street entrances are handicap accessible. There is an elevator in the lobby which services all four floors of the Center for the Arts. Handicap accessible and companion seats are noted on the clickable seating maps when purchasing tickets. If you need assistance with accessible seating, please call our box office at 1-800-657-8774.
WHY DO I ONLY RECEIVE MY TICKETS 24 HOURS BEFORE THE SHOW?
First, receiving your tickets close to your show date minimizes the potential risk of misplacing them. We’ve had many instances of ticket-buyers losing tickets they had purchased several months ago, only to be left stressed trying to find them shortly before the show. By receiving them 24 hours in advance, they are at the top of your inbox! (You will still receive a purchase confirmation email at the time of purchase).
Second, as suspicious ticketing transactions from less reputable (or even illegal) secondhand vendors rise across the live event industry, a shortened window such as this prevents scalpers and other questionable buyers from getting their hands on YOUR tickets. Protecting the security of Nashua Center for the Arts’ ticket buyers is a top priority for us, and every decision we make is to ensure our ticket-buyers are guaranteed the best possible customer experience.
WHAT IF I'VE LOST MY TICKETS?
Our Box Office is here to help recover any lost ticket information and can be reached at boxoffice@spectaclelive.com or call 1 (800) 657-8774

HOW CAN I BE SURE I AM PURCHASING LEGITAMITE TICKETS TO A SHOW AT THE NASHUA CENTER FOR THE ARTS?
Tickets for Spectacle Live events at Nashua Center for the Arts are only sold through our official ticketing platform Etix.com.
WHY IS SOMEONE ELSE’S NAME THAT I DON’T RECOGNIZE ON MY TICKET?
If you did not purchase your Nashua Center for the Arts tickets via Etix.com and do not recognize the name on the ticket, it is likely that you purchased through a third-party reseller. Tickets obtained from unauthorized sources may be lost, stolen, or counterfeit, and if so, are not valid for admission to this event. It is possible you were unnecessarily charged significantly more than the face value of this ticket by not purchasing though our box office. Conversely, tickets purchased for less than face value may have been acquired by fraudulent means. If you have questions as to whether your ticket is valid, please contact the Spectacle Live Box Office at 800-657-8774 or boxoffice@spectaclelive.com.
HOW DO I GET THE BEST PRICE FOR TICKETS TO A NASHUA CENTER FOR THE ARTS EVENT?
Always purchase official tickets directly from the event organizer to ensure you are receiving official tickets at the best price. For all Spectacle Live events at Nashua Center for the Arts, purchase official tickets online at Etix.com or contact our box office directly at (800) 657-8774.
WHAT TIME DO DOORS OPEN TO THE THEATRE?
For most performances, doors will open one hour prior to showtime. Please be on the lookout for our preshow email, which will be sent out approximately 48 prior to the performance. This email will contain important information including when doors will open, expected runtime, and more about the specific event you will be attending.
