Outpost Performance Space 20th Anniversary 2009 Season

WELCOME TO THE FALL 2009 TWENTIETH ANNIVERSARY SEASON! Thanks for your support. It's been a great fall season so far with great acts like the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis at the Lensic, Stefon Harris, Anat Cohen, Javon Jackson Tribute to Freddie Hubbard, DJ Spooky and so much more (see schedule below)

CONCERT SELLOUTS & WAITING LISTS: Many concerts at The Space do sell out so we urge you to get your tickets early. When a concert is sold out, we always start a waiting list and often, several people from the list will get in. Here's how it works. Call us at 268-0044 and if the concert is sold out, the message will tell you that. In that case, if you want to be on a waiting list, leave your name and number and how many tickets you want and we'll put you on the list. Come to the show 15 minutes before showtimne and let us know that you are here. We’ll let people in the order they are on the list if space becomes available.
