We want everyone to have a good time, and that's hard to do when you're being kicked in the back of the head by some guy in boots who decided to crowd surf. Contrary to some beliefs, crowd surfing is NOT harmless. People can get hurt.

Some concerts may offer a presale, allowing fans to purchase tickets before the show officially goes on sale. In order to obtain the presale password, either a) join our email newsletter list at join.therave.com, or b) download our app - we'll post presale in the 'news' section. These presales are limited to internet sales only in most cases. Sometimes, the artist also (or only) has a presale and that code is available through their website/fan club, etc.
Will Call simply means that you pick up your tickets at The Rave box office, usually on the night of the show. Contrary to its name, Will Call does not mean we will be calling you.
You can pick up your tickets anytime we are open, beginning 24 hours (or one business day) after your order is placed. You can also pick up your tickets on the night of the show.
In most cases, yes. Call our box office before the day of the show at 414-342-7283. No name changes may be made on the day of the show.
In most cases, you should receive your tickets within five to ten days. The Rave sends tickets via the US Postal Service. They do great work, however, sometimes, tickets may take a little longer. If you do not receive your tickets within 2 days of a show, call us at 414-342-7283 during regular business hours.
If you place an order for will call, we ask that you give us one business day to prepare your order for pick up. If the show is the same day as your order, your tickets will be ready for you one hour before show time.
When you pick up your Will Call ticket, you will need your order number (or receipt), a valid photo ID, and we may request to see the credit card that was used to place the order. This is done to protect you from fraud. For a valid photo ID, you can use any government issued photo ID, any school issued photo ID, or a passport. If you do not have any of these items, please contact The Rave box office at 414-342-7283 at least 24 hours before the show.
For some shows, the band has us sell some of their meet and greet passes. If The Rave is selling them, they will be listed on the event page and the ticketing page of TheRave.com.
For some shows, the bands sell their own meet and greet passes. You can check their website or facebook pages for additional details.
The website where you purchased the meet/greet passes will usually send you information 1-2 days prior to the concert. We regret that we may not have additional information until it is provided to us by the band tour manager, usually on the day prior the show.
As with most entertainment events, all ticket sales are final. There are no refunds, unless the headline act cancels or reschedules. For details, see our return policy.
If you purchased ticket insurance, that is a third party. You can visit their site for information.
The Rave does not advise purchasing tickets from a third party vendor or street vendor. Often times, they are counterfeit, fraudulent, or duplicates and may not get you into the show. Even websites that seem legitimate are suspect to sellers who may not have your best interest in mind. If your ticket is invalid, you will be turned away. We have no choice.
Call our box office at 414-342-7283. Most times, the box office can reprint your tickets for you at the door on the night of the show.
Contact us at help@therave.com. Also, please check your junk/spam folders. Sometimes, they get caught up in those filters. In many cases, you can get your tickets resent to you by visiting etix.com.
Each offer is different. Some may be a physical copy of the album which will be mailed to you. Sometimes, it is an emailed code for a download. Please check the information on the page where you purchased your tickets for additional information. Download codes are usually sent out once a week, so please allow 1-2 weeks to get your download code. Mailed items may take longer.
Doors usually open about 60-90 minutes before show time for the Eagles Ballroom shows, and 60 minutes before show time for most other shows. However, if a band is late with their sound check, doors may be delayed.
The Rave/Eagles Club is a general admission venue. While there is limited seating areas, they are most often first come, first served. Some events may have reserved seating. Be sure to check the ticketing page and/or your ticket.
Yes, The Rave/Eagles Club offers two lots for parking. You can purchase parking by calling 414-342-7283 or visiting parking.therave.com.
Please be careful when parking in private lots operated by someone other than The Rave. The person waving you in may not own the lot, and you may get towed.
Our parking lot attendants will have a list of everyone who prepaid for parking. Simply check in with a parking lot attendant. You do not need to go inside to get your parking pass first.
No cameras, video cameras, or recording equipment are allowed in The Rave/Eagles Club. This is mostly by the request of the bands.
Photo passes are controlled by the headliner of the show. You would need to contact their publicity department.
For a detailed list of what and what is not allowed, please visit our Customer Safety Guidelines page.
It is possible that the band has not yet fully confirmed the show with us, or that the band planned on a show here but it did not get finalized.
If you don't see the show on our calendar, we don't know when the band will be back. We hope soon! Keep checking our calendar, or better yet, join our mailing list.
The Rave often does not get official set times until late afternoon on the day of the show, and even then, they are subject to change. Therefore, we may not offer set times. If we have set times, they will be posted on TheRave.com.
The headliner usually has the bigger current following. Headliners schedule their tours and invite opening bands to join them. There are times when a band that has been around longer may be opening for a band that hasn't been around as long. The Rave does not choose the order of bands, nor the time length of a band's set.
Awww, that's sweet. The band controls all aspects of the stage for the day they are here. You would have to contact band management to try to have something like that arranged.
