2. Ticket & Season Pass Questions

What is the difference between a ticket & season pass?

Ticket = Access to Single Event

Season Pass = Access to Entire Regular Season

What is included in a Season Pass?

A NightLight season pass includes:

  • Admission to all Regular Season NightLight events
  • Early entry / Priority seating
  • Voting on future NL Movies
  • Private Season Pass Bar Line

Are tickets available at the door?

No, tickets to each event are limited in quantity and must be purchased online. Events often completely sell out in advance, so it's best to secure your tickets early before they run out. On the rare occasion there are tickets available the day of the event, they should be purchased online before arriving at the gate. 

Can I get a refund for my ticket or season pass?

Refunds are not available. You can sell or give your ticket or season pass to anyone over the age of 21.

Are tickets/season passes transferrable?

Yes. The names on the tickets & season passes do not need to match the ticket holder, so long as the individual is 21+ and up & has proper ID at the gate.

3. Weather & Reschedule Questions

What happens if there is inclement weather?

This is an outdoor event and when possible the event will go on rain or shine. NightLight continually monitors the weather and forecast and in the event of significant inclement weather or forecasts, NL615 may choose to postpone or reschedule the event. Ticket Holders will be notified of a cancellation/reschedule as soon as possible via social media, SMS and email.

How do reschedules work?

In the event of a cancellation/reschedule ticket holders will be notified of the new date via email, social media & on the website as soon as possible. Purchased tickets will automatically be valid for the new date (you do not need to do anything). No refunds or transfers are available, if you are unable to attend the new date you are welcome to give or sell your ticket to anyone over 21.

5. Accessibility

Is NightLight wheelchair accessible?

While most of the seating area is tiered with stairs, there is a flat section between the tiered seating and the lawn in the amphitheater. Space can be reserved there for wheelchair users with advanced notice. The lawn area is also accessible from the rear via ramp but note that the area is grassy and on a slight incline. The bar and food vendors are wheelchair accessible on 6th Ave. There is also an accessible portable restroom. You can send us an email at: contact@nightlight614.com with any specific questions.

Are Closed Captions available?

Traditional closed captioning devices used in permanent theaters don't work in an outdoor pop-up setting. We recommend the use of the app Subtitles Viewer! available on iOS and android devices. Using this app you can download the subtitles in advance and sync them with the start of the movie/dialogue. If you would like assistance syncing to the start of the film let our staff at the bar know on arrival. If you would like to us to provide a device to run the app or have any further questions you can send us an email at contact@nightlight615.com.
