How Much Do Tickets to Broad Stage At Santa Monica Cost?

Broad Stage At Santa Monica ticket prices vary significantly depending on the type of event, the artist or ensemble, seating section, and demand — which is what you'd expect from a venue that hosts everything from chamber music and dance to high-demand marquee presentations.

For classical, chamber, dance, and theater performances, tickets are often priced approximately from $45 to $120, depending on the event and seat location within the intimate house. Rear and upper-side seats typically offer the most accessible price points, while prime center seating usually costs more.

High-demand or marquee presentations can run higher for premium seating. Because the main house has approximately 499 seats, demand can rise quickly when a popular performer, ensemble, or special presentation is scheduled.

Because the house is small, popular performances can sell out. Buying earlier generally secures better seat selection and availability, while the best remaining seats often rise in price as inventory tightens closer to the performance date.
