Thank you

The Poway Center for the Performing Arts Box Office can reprint tickets as long as the ticket or tickets were purchased directly from us (whether by phone or online). The original tickets will then become invalid. If you purchased your tickets online and selected to print eTickets, an email was sent to you from TicketSearch with an attachment of your tickets, and you can reprint your tickets. If the tickets are on your phone, you can open the email and show the QR code at the door. Tickets purchased through a 3rd party cannot be traced; therefore, we are unable to offer reprints.

The Poway Center for the Performing Arts is committed to providing quality cultural experiences for audience members of all ages. Depending on the client presenting the performance you may be allowed to have infants under 1 year sitting on a lap. Anyone 1 year and older must have a ticket as they will need to have a physical seat.

Ticket refunds and exchanges are not available. The PCPA is a venue only, all shows and revenue are the property of the clients we serve.

No exchanges or refunds for any ticket purchased at our facility. 

All tickets, including tickets printed at home, will be scanned when you enter the building. Each ticket has a unique QR code that can only be scanned once.
