Ticketing Notice
Patrons will notice a new ticketing interface this season. All tickets will continue to be available online only. Review our ticket policies here. All events are open to the public, but Kiawah property owners have a 3-day lead time on tickets for certain events. If an event has only one release date listed, then early access is not available for that event.
Season Reminders
We are thrilled to be returning to live in-person events and grateful to the area venues and vendors for making this season possible. As we navigate the return to normal, you will notice some changes, large and small. Due to unprecedented demand for venue space, we've had to be more flexible with dates and locations to bring our patrons a complete season.
Please review the following information:
- Safety Precautions - For the time being, events will have reduced capacity, masks available, and sanitation stations. We will continue to evaluate this policy as the season progresses. The most current CDC guidelines recommend that everyone wear a mask indoors in public if they are in a substantial or high transmission area. Charleston County is currently at a high level of transmission rates.
- Staffing - Patrons can expect to see some new, friendly faces at our events! This season, we will be contracting professional event staff to provide ticket scanning and support to our resident volunteers.
- Ticketing & Kiawah Property Owner Early Access - Patrons will notice a new ticketing interface this season. All tickets will continue to be available online only. Property owners within the Town of Kiawah Island municipal boundaries are eligible for a 3-day lead time on tickets to select events. Property owners who previously registered for early access tickets should have received their 2021-2022 season access code. If you would like to register or did not receive your code, email your name and Kiawah Island address to Stephanie Braswell at sbraswell@kiawahisland.org.
