Starlight Theatre

General parking is free and operates on a first-come basis; staff will direct you to an available spot when you arrive. Premium paved parking is sold separately if you prefer an upgraded surface. Accessible spaces are designated in the Yellow lot to the east and the Orange lot to the south for both Broadway and concert events, though the venue advises following staff guidance rather than assuming every marked space will be open.

Clear, untinted bags up to twelve by six by twelve inches are permitted, along with small clutches or fanny packs measuring up to four and a half by six and a half inches. Medical supplies and diaper bags are allowed after inspection. Outside food and beverages are not permitted, with the exception of water and medical items that meet the specific guidelines.

You may bring one commercially sealed plastic water bottle up to twenty-four ounces or an empty reusable plastic bottle of the same size. Metal, glass, and frozen containers are not allowed. Keep in mind that touring productions occasionally modify these restrictions, so confirm current rules if your event is a touring show.

Because Starlight operates outdoors, performances continue in rain and most weather conditions rather than issuing blanket cancellations. Check the evening forecast before you leave home and dress accordingly; the venue requires shirts and shoes at all times. Bringing a light rain jacket or poncho in a clear bag can keep you comfortable if showers develop, and sunscreen or a hat may help during matinee performances.

Accessible seating and companion spaces are distributed across most price tiers. Contact the ticket office at 816-363-7827 to coordinate exact needs, as aisle paths must remain clear throughout the show. Mobility aids can be stored safely with staff assistance when necessary, and service animals wearing a leash or harness are welcome.

Complimentary sensory kits contain noise-canceling headsets, weighted blankets and fidget toys. Check them out with a valid photo ID at the southeast Guest Information Kiosk. Free assistive listening devices are available there at every performance; guests can also use their own phone and headset with the Listen Everywhere app and the venue’s designated listening Wi-Fi.

Saturday-night Broadway performances have audio description, and Sunday-night Broadway performances have sign-language interpretation. Ticket Services can advise on the sections offering a view of interpreters. Concert interpretation can be requested with at least fourteen days’ notice; later requests depend on availability. Confirm the service for your specific performance when booking.

Food and beverages are sold on site at concession stands. Those outlets accept only credit and debit cards or mobile wallets; they do not handle cash. The same cashless policy applies to merchandise locations. If you need to use cash, the ticket office can process payments with bills, cards, or gift certificates.

For Broadway productions, children under two may sit quietly on an adult's lap without needing their own ticket. Concerts require a ticket for every attendee regardless of age. Not every production is suitable for very young children, so review show descriptions before purchasing. Some Broadway performances hold late arrivals until a suitable break, waiting for a transition between scenes to seat you without disrupting other guests.

The East Guest Information Kiosk is your first stop for questions or lost items during an event. After the performance, any recovered belongings are transferred to the ticket office. You can also reach the venue at 816-363-7827 or [email protected] if you need to follow up the next day.
