Tips & Advice

  • Buy tickets online, where there's no extra charge and sales are open around the clock, or call the Arts Center to order by phone.
  • Use the curbside drop-off in front of the main entrance on Holyoke Avenue, where a heated paver walkway keeps snow and ice off the path.
  • Park free in any of the four lots within a block of the Arts Center, or grab an on-street spot nearby.
  • The box office opens 45 minutes before the performance, so arrive early if you need help with tickets at the door.
  • Make an outing of it, since the Arts Center sits in historic downtown Lakeville with dining and shopping close by.
