HOW ARE SEATS ASSIGNED?
Seating for the 2011-2012 season is assigned in the following order:
1) Returning Season Subscribers based on original Date of Purchase
2) All other subscriptions based on original Date of Purchase
WHEN DO I RECEIVE MY TICKETS?
Subscription orders will be confirmed with a mailed letter approximately two weeks after order placement. Tickets for the entire season are sent out during the middle part of September.
CAN I BUY INDIVIDUAL PERFORMANCES / TICKETS?
Tickets are sold by Series only. Tickets to individual events are not available. There are six separate lectures in the Series, and a Series ticket includes all six lectures. If a Series is not sold out when it begins in October, tickets remain available by Series, and the charge for the remaining engagements is prorated.
Please note: 2011-2012 season ticket holders can purchase additional individual tickets, if available.
WHY?
Selling tickets as a package enables us to advertise the Series all at once and reduces the costs of presenting these notable speakers. If each event were marketed and ticketed individually, the ticket price would be approximately double that price.
ARE THERE ANY STUDENT DISCOUNTS?
The Sacramento Speakers Series is proud to offer our Share the Vision program, which allows students from local high schools and colleges to attend the Series, free of charge. For more information about Share the Vision, please contact Rachel Simons at 916.388.1100 or at rachel@sacramentospeakers.com.
HOW LONG IS EACH LECTURE?
Each evening lasts about 90 minutes, from 8pm to 9:30pm. The speaker lectures for about an hour, followed by a moderated question and answer section. The 25-30 minute “Q&A” period belongs to the audience. During the lecture, you have the opportunity to fill out “a question for tonight’s speaker”, which will be posed to the speaker during this session. The speaker clarifies or amplifies previous remarks or offers spontaneous and revealing new information, which often makes this the most interesting portion of the evening.

CAN I GET AN AUDIO TAPE, VIDEO TAPE, OR TRANSCRIPT?
By contract, we do not create any of these for public use. Very seldom in our history has this been done, and it required special permission from several sources.
