The Magic of Motown

• Reserved Seating
• All patrons must have a ticket for entry regardless of age or seating requirements, including infants. No refunds. No exchanges.
• The Rialto Theater has ADA seating available on the main floor only, the balcony seating is not ADA accessible. Please contact the box office at 253-591-5894 for questions regarding ADA seating.

All bags will be subject to a search before being allowed into the theater, which may take extra time and slow ingress. We ask that you do not bring any large bags. Due to the historic nature of the building, there is only one entry door at the Rialto Theater, so we recommend bringing clear and/or small bags to help streamline the entry process.

While clear bags are not mandatory, they are highly recommended to expedite your entry.

Please note that no outside food or drink will be allowed inside the theater.

Tacoma City Theaters is a fully cashless venue for all box office and concessions purchases. Google Pay, Apple Pay, and all major credit/debit cards are accepted at every point of sale.

Cash acceptance for merchandise varies by event and vendor. Please note that this information is not available in advance, so we recommend planning to pay with a cashless method. Going cashless allows us to speed up transactions, shorten lines, and minimize contact between guests and staff for a smoother, safer experience.

To help ensure a smooth experience, Tacoma City Theaters strongly encourages patrons to arrive early, both to secure parking and to allow enough time to enter without missing any part of the performance.

For select events, Premium Experience upgrades may be available and include access to reserved parking. If this option applies to your event, details will be shared in your “Know Before You Go” email.

We also recommend downloading any relevant parking apps in advance and exploring nearby parking options to help plan your visit.
