MUSIC AT 8PM — FREE ADMISSION FOR JAZZ 88 MEMBERS

Jazz Live began in 1977 as a wild idea of telecom students Scott Harrison and Jackson Ratliff. The original 'live' concerts were intended to inspire and entertain and that mission has remained true to this day. Since September 14th, 2004, Jazz Live has been enhanced with support from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. This financial support makes it possible to bring major acts to Jazz Live.

JAZZ LIVE TICKET POLICY

Current Jazz 88.3 members can reserve 2 free tickets by calling 619 388-3037. Reserved tickets will be available at the Saville Theatre box office beginning at 5:30pm the night of the concert. Members can reserve 2 additional tickets which must be paid for no later than 7:30pm the night of the concert. Reserved tickets may be picked up at the KSDS business office the day before and day of the concert (City College, Room C-102, 8:30am-4:30pm).

ALL RESERVED TICKETS MUST BE CLAIMED BY 7:30PM ON THE NIGHT OF THE CONCERT

UNCLAIMED TICKETS WILL BE RELEASED FOR SALE AT 7:30PM

Non-member general admission is $10 (for most shows), subject to availability. Student admission is $5 with valid student ID, subject to availability. Because seating is festival-style, seats together cannot be guaranteed.
If a concert is sold-out (usually), unclaimed reserved tickets become available at 7:30pm, first come-first served. If a concert is not sold out (rarely), non-member general admission tickets can be purchased before 4:30pm at our business office or after 7:30pm at the box office. Again, seats together are not guaranteed.

Please call 619 388-3037 regarding availability of tickets.
