The most reliable way to purchase legitimate tickets at face value is to begin your search at lobero.org. From time to time, we do release tickets to authorized sellers such as artist fan clubs. If you are ever in doubt about a seller, please call our Box Office at (805) 963-0761.
If you purchase from any other vendor, your tickets may not be valid. If a show is cancelled or postponed, you may not receive proper notification or reimbursement. The Lobero Theatre is not responsible for tickets purchased through vendors other than our website or those sellers that we have authorized.
It is our role as stewards of this great building to embrace the opportunity to invest in renewable energy, and to reduce waste wherever possible.
We use compostable cups, napkins, and utensils for all receptions and concessions events. We provide artist meal service on real dishes, supply performers with reusable stainless steel water bottles, and offer filtered water in the greenroom area – as well as water refill stations – in an effort to cut down on disposables throughout the venue. New concession stands also made the switch to wine and beer kegs, eliminating thousands of empty bottles and speeding up bartending services.
The Lobero’s stage lighting system has been updated to energy-efficient LEDs where possible, replacing hundreds of outdated stage bulbs. In addition, our recent impactful addition of solar panels on the Gail Towbes Auditorium rooftop will significantly reduce the Lobero’s reliance on traditional energy sources and add excess solar power to the local power grid.
As we do our part to make our venue a more environmentally-friendly place, we ask you to join us.
