Avoid ticket resellers and scammers. Purchase tickets only at flynnvt.org.
Unauthorized third-party ticket resellers, ticket scammers, and ticket fraudsters are a pervasive threat to the performing arts industry. Third-party resellers often charge two to three times the original ticket price. Some resellers sell the same ticket to more than one customer. The Flynn takes these issues very seriously. We have seen many of our patrons taken advantage of and we are doing everything we can to combat this issue in our area. The Flynn does not work with any third-party resellers. The only legitimate place to purchase tickets to Flynn events online is through flynnvt.org.

FOLLOW THESE SIMPLE STEPS.
1. Contact the Flynn Box Office
Unauthorized third-party re-sellers do not notify us of their bookings. While this practice is currently legal, it creates a great inconvenience for patrons, theaters, and legitimate box office retailers. Call the Flynn Box Office for assistance at 802-863-5966. Box office representatives are able to confirm if your tickets are valid. Please have your ticket PDF and your order confirmation ready when you call.
2. Reach out to your bank
Contact your bank or financial institution to contest the charges. If you are having difficulty contesting a charge with your financial institution, email boxsupervisors@flynnvt.org with your order confirmation and ticket PDF for further assistance.
3. Contact Vermont Consumer Protection
We recommend calling the Vermont Consumer Protection hotline at 802-649-2424 to report your experience with third-party reselling to help raise awareness of this issue.
Both The Fans First Act and The TICKET Act are making their way through congress right now. Both of these bills mandate ticket pricing transparency, ban deceptive advertising and websites, and ban fake tickets.
