Holiday News: Nutcracker Ticket Deal, Christmas Ship Parade

December 11th, 2008

Two pieces of holiday-related news to share with you:

Nutcracker Ticket Deal

$25 tickets are on sale now for selected performances of The Nutcracker, an Oregon Ballet Theatre production. The ticket deal applies to these performances:

December 19, 7:00 pm
December 21, 1:00 pm
December 22, 2:00 pm & 7:30 pm
December 23, 2:00 pm & 7:30 pm

To get the deal, you must purchase tickets online or from the PCPA box office using the code word MARIE. The price does not include service charges.

Out of curiosity, I looked online to see what seats the $25 price applied to. The website offered me tickets that were originally $87, so this is definitely a deal worth checking out.

To purchase tickets online, go to this Ticketmaster website. Find the date you want and click “Find Tickets.” Under “Promotions and Special Offers,” type MARIE in the box and select the number of tickets you want. For price, select “Any Price.”

To purchase tickets from the PCPA box office, simply go there and mention the code MARIE.
