How Much Do Tickets to The New Parish - Oakland Cost?

The New Parish - Oakland ticket prices vary widely depending on the type of event, the artist, seating section, and demand — which is what you'd expect from a venue that hosts everything from emerging local acts to higher-demand touring headliners and special events.

General admission concerts for emerging and local acts can start around approximately $15–$30. Because most shows use a standing-room general-admission setup, pricing is often driven more by the artist, demand, and date than by a large number of seat tiers.

Higher-demand touring headliners and special events typically run approximately $30–$60 or more. Popular artists, special events, and high-demand nights can push prices higher as inventory tightens.

At an intimate venue of this size, popular shows can sell out. Buying earlier gives you a better chance to secure entry and avoid the tighter inventory that often comes closer to the event date.
