About RJ Reynolds Auditorium

Getting Ready for Your RJ Reynolds Auditorium Event

Once your tickets are confirmed, a few practical preparations make your visit run significantly smoother — especially at a historic campus auditorium where parking areas can fill near performance time.

• Download your tickets before you leave. Save your tickets to your phone's wallet or screenshot them before departing so you're ready at the entrance without needing a signal.
• Charge your phone fully. Digital ticketing is standard, and your phone is your entry. A portable battery pack is worth having for a full evening.
• Arrive early. Give yourself extra time for parking in the campus lots, which can fill near performance start times.
• Wear the right footwear. Balcony seating involves stairs, and the historic building has traditional theater access routes, so supportive shoes are a smart choice.
• Dress for an indoor, climate-controlled venue. RJ Reynolds Auditorium is indoors, making standard theater attire appropriate for most events.
• Build extra time into your arrival plan. Parking is easier when you arrive before the busiest pre-show window.
• Know your entrance. Use the dedicated auditorium entrance on North Hawthorne Road for the most direct access to the front lobby.
• Check the bag policy in advance. Reviewing the venue's guidelines before packing prevents delays at security.
