Arrival for performances

The Weis Center lobby generally opens one hour prior to scheduled events, and seating begins approximately one half hour before the performance. Late arrivals are seated at appropriate intervals in the performance, at the direction and discretion of the artists.

Emergency contact

Those who may need to receive calls during a performance should give the box office number (570-577-1000) and then leave their names and seat numbers at the lobby desk.

Courtesies

Some audience members are allergic to perfumes, and it is therefore requested that patrons please refrain from using large quantities when attending Weis Center performances. Also, the Weis Center is an acoustically excellent facility, so please be aware that noise like coughing and talking can be heard on stage and elsewhere in the auditorium as easily as music from the stage carries to the seats. Please remember to turn off electronic devices including cell phones and pagers when enjoying a Weis Center performance. The Weis Center is a smoke-free facility.
