Charge by Phone

PLEASE NOTE: Beginning March 2009 Ticketmaster will use only new nationwide toll-free numbers to help ensure your fans get easier access to purchase tickets and to great customer service. The new toll-free numbers are:

• National Toll Free SALES number: 1-800-745-3000
  Consumers can use this number to purchase tickets to any events in the continental United States, no matter what their location is. The system recognizes where in the United States the caller is calling from so all local prompting or messaging will still work.
• National Ticketmaster Express number: 1-866-448-7849
  Ticketmaster Express, Ticketmaster’s national IVR automated phone line, is a quick and easy self-service method of buying tickets. This line is available 22 hours each day, 7 days a week! This self service information and ticket purchasing line is available for the majority of events handled by Ticketmaster. Please note that you will not be able to speak with a Ticketmaster representative using Ticketmaster Express.
• National Customer Service number: 1-800-653-8000
  This is an easy access number that directly points customers to customer service for support on previously place orders.

Accessible Seating

Accessible seating for guests with visual impairments and limited mobility is available throughout the RBC Center in all price ranges.  Specific locations will vary according to each event.  One companion seat may be purchased with each accessible seat, and if available, additional companion seats can be purchased in the rows in front of that section.

Accessible seating may be purchased through the Time Warner Cable Box Office at the RBC Center by calling 919.861.2323.  The TDD line for the box office is 919-.861-2318.

RBC BANK BLUE LINE

Purchasing tickets on event days?  RBC Bank customers have an exclusive line at the Time Warner Box Office at the RBC Center.  Bring verification of your account (pocket check, bank statement, etc.) with RBC Bank, and go straight to the Blue Line at the RBC Center to purchase tickets for that night’s event (based on ticket availability and does not apply to will-call tickets or on-sales).

Team Tickets

Group Tickets

Ordering group tickets is simple and convenient. Please contact the RBC Center Group Sales Department by E-Mail or by calling 919.861.5457 for personal, one-on-one service. Visit our group ticket information page for more information.

TICKET ON-SALE INFORMATION

Events are generally put on sale on weekends and go on-sale simultaneously at ALL Ticketmaster outlets, online at ticketmaster.com, by phone and at the Time Warner Cable Box Office at the RBC Center. Events and on-sale information are usually announced the week they go on sale. Please check RBCcenter.com for event specific information.

For concerts, a lottery will be conducted if needed for those coming to the box office.  All guests at the box office will be assembled to have the process explained.

Prior to any on-sale, guests are not permitted onto the property before 6:00am (no overnight).

Will-Call Tickets

Tickets purchased less than 10 days prior to an event, or tickets left by a 3rd party, are considered will-call tickets and are left at the Pick-Up Window.

• A picture ID and the credit card used to purchase the tickets are required to pick up tickets.
• Pick-Up tickets purchased through Ticketmaster charge by phone or over the Internet are available for pick up 2 hours prior to the event start time and can be picked up at the designated Pick-Up Window.
• Tickets or passes left by team players or touring personnel usually arrive in the box office approximately one hour before the event start time. Unfortunately, box office personnel have no way of knowing who is to receive player or tour personnel tickets until they are delivered to the box office. 
• Patrons may also leave tickets at the Pick-Up Window; however the RBC Center cannot accept responsibility for unclaimed tickets.
• Tickets will be released only to the person whose name appears on the Pick-Up envelope.

Ticket Mailing Process

Tickets purchased over the phone can be mailed directly to the purchaser if there is sufficient time before the event for the tickets to safely travel through the postal system.  As a general rule, tickets purchased within 10 days of an event are left at the Pick-Up Window.  Tickets purchased more than 10 days prior to the event can be mailed via standard U.S. Postal System delivery to the credit card holder’s billing address.  Please allow at least 7-10 days for delivery.

For tickets not received in the mail after the standard delivery time, please contact Ticketmaster at 919.834.4000, or the local Ticketmaster phone number for tickets purchased by phone or through Ticketmaster.com. 

Damaged Tickets

As a security measure, tickets printed for RBC Center events are printed on thermal paper.  The writing on the face of tickets is burned onto the ticket surface rather than printed.  Tickets stored in cars, especially in glove boxes or on dashboards, or in other places of extreme heat, may turn completely black and become unreadable.  This can happen even if they are in an envelope.  Should this occur, the Time Warner Cable Box Office at the RBC Center may not be able to issue relocation passes if the original seats cannot be determined.  Tickets should be returned to the point of purchase to determine if they can be replaced. 

TICKET RESALE ZONE

Tickets may not be sold or resold on RBC Center property except in the designated ticket resale zone located at the south end of the arena across Peter Karmanos Drive - on the sidewalk.

Tickets obtained from sources other than the RBC Center or authorized ticketing agents may be lost, stolen, or counterfeit and will not be honored.

STOP THE SCAMMERS - FIGHT THE SCALPERS

Backstage Passes

Backstage passes can never be purchased.  These passes are supplied by touring personnel only.  Backstage passes are very limited and usually only provided by radio stations, fan clubs or artist management. Many radio stations hold contests to win the backstage passes to meet your favorite star.  Also, several artists take time after each show they perform to meet the members of their fan clubs.  RBC Center personnel cannot give or sell backstage passes to patrons or give out tour personnel information.

Cancelled or Rescheduled Events

In the event a performance is cancelled or rescheduled, information is immediately sent to the local media for distribution and placed on RBCcenter.com. 

If an event is cancelled, refunds will be available at the original point of purchase.  For example, any tickets purchased at the Time Warner Cable Box Office at the RBC Center would be refunded at the box office; tickets purchased through a Ticketmaster outlet would be refunded at that specific outlet.

In the event a show must be rescheduled, tickets purchased for the original date will be honored at the new date.  In most cases, refunds will also be available at the original point of purchase up until the new event date has passed.

Inclement Weather

All shows at the RBC Center are "Rain or Shine" events.  Only in extreme inclement weather are shows cancelled or postponed.  For questions about an event cancellation due to weather, please call 919.861.2300.

Tickets For Children

Discounted ticket prices for children are sometimes available for various shows. Age restrictions and the amount of the discount vary by event and are at the discretion of the touring act or event. Children’s discounts are generally not available for sporting events and concerts.

For most events, children 24 months of age and older are required to have a ticket for admission to the RBC Center.  Children under the age of 24 months are not required to have a ticket to most events, but they must sit in the lap of a ticket-holding adult.

For information on age restrictions and discounts for specific events, please call the Time Warner Cable Box Office at the RBC Center at 919.861.2323.

Credit Card Verification Policy

For safety and security reasons, tickets purchased by credit card may only be purchased by the actual credit card holder.  The RBC Center and Ticketmaster both use a credit card verification system that will only allow tickets to be printed and mailed to persons whose name, address, and phone number match that supplied by the credit card’s issuing bank.

Lost/Stolen Tickets & Tickets Not Received in Mail

If tickets are lost, stolen, or not received in the mail, patrons should immediately contact the original point of purchase to inform them of the loss.

For tickets purchased through the Time Warner Cable Box Office at the RBC Center, please call 919.861.2323.

For tickets purchased through a Ticketmaster outlet, patrons should return to the original outlet where the tickets were purchased.  Please also contact Ticketmaster directly at 919.834.4000, or your local Ticketmaster phone number, for tickets purchased through Ticketmaster charge by phone or over the Internet.

Lost tickets are similar to lost cash, and passes will not be issued unless ownership of a seat location can be verified 100%.  Issuance of a lost ticket pass is not guaranteed.  If a ticket purchase can be confirmed, the Box Office will replace the ticket with a pass that will only be available at the Pick-Up Window on the day of the event to the original purchaser.

Refunds

There are no refunds or exchanges for tickets purchased.  If an event is cancelled or rescheduled, tickets may be refunded at the original point of purchase (see above).
