-
Why are tickets more expensive today than they were last week?
The Mayfield Dinner Theatre Box Office has introduced the market standard Dynamic Pricing model to address inflation while keeping tickets affordable for a night out.
Dynamic Pricing means that ticket prices increase based on how many tickets have been sold for specific dates. If you check prices one day and then go to book tickets a week later for that same date, especially if the performance date, particularly if the performance is soon, you might find the prices have increased due to higher ticket sales in that period.
This model also affects ticket exchanges. If you try to exchange existing tickets, the new price will reflect any increases. However, Season Ticket holders are protected from the increase as long as they exchange to a performance on the same day of a week (for example a Saturday to another Saturday).
To secure the lowest prices, it is best to purchase tickets early.
