Learn more about accessibility at Portland 5’s theaters here.

Box office and Will Call open an hour before the show. If you need to pick up or purchase tickets we recommend showing up at least half an hour prior to curtain. Keep in mind that weekends in downtown Portland can be busy, so give yourself adequate time to park and get to the theater.

If you have your tickets either electronically or printed you do NOT need to check in: you can go directly to the theater’s seating entrance.

For Portland’5 venues (Newmark, Winningstad, and Brunish):  Street parking near the theater is metered Mondays through Saturdays from 8am to 7pm, and on Sundays from 1pm to 7pm. Note that all metered parking spaces have various time limits that are displayed on signs near the spaces. The nearest parking garages can be found here.

If you arrive early for a performance, check out our pre-show activities! For most performances we’ll have activities for kids and families: this is usually a scavenger hunt, but may also be a crafting/coloring activity, a learning opportunity, or another fun experience! Check your preshow reminder email for more detailed information.

No food is allowed in the theater, and drinks must be in a closed container. Concessions are available in the lobby of our Mainstage shows prior to curtain.

Mainstage productions: Late seating is available; however, we may seat you in different seats than you purchased to limit disruptions to the performance.
