Audition details
Where can I buy tickets for the Nutcracker performances?

Tickets go on sale each year, typically on the last Monday in September. See showtimes, location and ticket links on our Nutcracker page. Be sure to check back for updates on ticket availability and performance dates!

Is this the same as the Spokane Symphony Nutcracker?

No. Ballet for Youth’s Nutcracker is a separate production, performed by Spokane-area youth dancers with professional guest artists at the Spokane Community College Lair Auditorium. Before you buy tickets or register for auditions, check that you’re on balletforyouth.org or our Eventbrite page and that the venue listed is the SCC Lair.
