The tickets are expected to be sold out by day’s end. Denver is a world-class city, when it comes to the arts and so much more. And, fortunately, the city makes the theater affordable for all. Among the Denver Center for Performing Arts’ discount programs, the most popular is its DCPAccess — with tickets just $10 each. This program provides access to its shows — even the occasional Broadway production — at up to 75% off.
For more than 30 years, taxpayers have supported the Scientific and Cultural Facilities District (SCFD), which enables the DCPA to offer award-winning theatre and inspiring educational programs. As part of the partnership, each organization offers free or discounted tickets to the public for select performances.
How does DCPAccess work?
Tickets for Denver Center Theatre Company shows are just $10 each — with an additional $1.50 service fee per ticket. Limit four tickets per show. (All sales are final. No refunds.)
If a DCPAccess ticket is available for a show date, the option to purchase will show as “DCPAccess.”
The discounted tickets can only be purchased online at DCPA — click here.
