(by mail, email or in person) at least 48 hours prior to the performance. You may also fax a photocopy of your torn tickets to 734.647.1171 or email a photo to [email protected].

The value of the ticket(s) will be applied to another performance or will be held as UMS Credit until the end of the 2018-19 season. UMS Credit must be redeemed by April 27, 2019, when it will expire. UMS is no longer able to automatically convert expired credit to a gift-in-kind donation without a direct request from the credit holder.

Ticket Donations/Unused TicketsTickets may be donated to UMS until the published start time of the concert. A receipt will be issued for tax purposes; please consult your tax advisor. Unused tickets that are returned after the performance are not eligible for UMS Credit or as a ticket donation.

RefundsDue to the nature of the performing arts, programs and artists are subject to change. If an artist cancels an appearance, UMS makes every effort to substitute that performance with a comparable artist. Refunds will be offered only if a substitute cannot be found, or in the event of a date change. Service charges are not refundable.

UMS will not cancel performances or refund tickets because of inclement weather. An artist may choose to cancel a performance if weather prevents the artist’s arrival in Ann Arbor, but that decision rests with the artist and not with UMS.
