COME EARLY, RELAX, AND ENJOY
We recommend planning your travel so that you arrive at the Amaturo Theater at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts no later than 45-60 minutes before show time. You should then budget about 15 minutes to park, walk to the theater, and clear security. Arriving early also gives you time to relax and enjoy the Slow Burn experience.  Mingle with friends, enjoy food and drink specials up to 60 minutes prior to the show and settle in. Seating areas open 30 minutes prior to show time.

LATE ARRIVALS
Most shows require that our ushers hold late arrivals in the lobby until a suitable pause in the program. The timing of allowing late arrivals into the seating area is determined by the show and designed to cause as little disruption as possible.

THERE IS NO DRESS CODE
While going to the Broward Center is certainly a special occasion, there is no required dress code. Some guests enjoy dressing up and making a special night of it, and you can too, but most of all we want our guests to be comfortable. We would ask you to politely consider other guests’ possible allergic reactions when applying fragrances like perfumes or colognes, as the Broward Center is a closed area with many people in close proximity to each other.

WE'RE HERE TO HELP
Above all, we hope you enjoy your experience at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts, and please know that we are here to help. If you have a question or need assistance of any kind, please just ask a member of our staff. Campus Concierges are positioned outside the theater.  Just look for the red shirts. We believe in great entertainment experiences, and we want to be your favorite place for live events.

PARKING & DIRECTIONS
A variety of parking options are available for our patrons!  There are several garages close to the theater. The cost to park in these garages ranges from $5-$15, pricing subject to change. They accept cash or credit card with the exception of the Broward County Governmental Center Garage which only accepts cash during the day. Also note that change is not given in either of the two county garages. Valet service is available for most performances at $25 per vehicle. Preferred Valet service is limited and costs $35 per vehicle. Valet parking is located at the main entrance of the Broward Center adjacent to the AutoNation Box Office at the top of the ramp.
