Season Tickets
Melissa Chapman, president of the W.S.A., says that season tickets for the Waxahachie Symphony Association sell out fast as each season opens. Season tickets sales for 2026-2027 started in early-September 2026.
Note that season tickets are available in two packages — purchasers may choose whether they want a season ticket with or without the Christmas concert. Because holiday season travel often precludes some season ticket holders from attending the Christmas concert, the association has made the two packages available so that ticket holders who know in advance that they cannot attend the Christmas concert may purchase tickets accordingly.
Season tickets begin at $65.00 per person for five concerts, or $85 with the addition of the Christmas concert for a total of six performances.
Family season tickets without the Christmas concert are $150.00 for two adults and two children, or $200 with the Christmas concert added.
The association also offers discounted tickets for seniors, children and students.
Melissa says season tickets are a bargain for family oriented entertainment, allowing a family of four, for example, to enjoy admission to seven concerts — including the Christmas concert — for less than $9.00 per person.
