A Premium Membership allows you to purchase seats in Price Level 1, as well as all of the Price Levels open to Standard Members.

You may make monthly payments or pay all at once.

If you choose monthly payments: Your first months’ payment is due at the time of your purchase. If you sign up by October 31, your second monthly payment will be free ($0)! For the third month of Membership, regular monthly payments will resume. You will be charged to your credit card on file on the first of each month thereafter. If you sign up after November 1, 2022, your first payment is due at the time of your purchase and your second payment will be due on the first of the following month. If you would like to make monthly payments, they must be made using a credit card. Your Membership can be cancelled after three consecutive months (2 paid months, 1 free month); otherwise, it will automatically renewed after June 30, 2023. You will be charged a $5 administrative fee for those months without ESO concerts instead of the regular Membership fee.

If you choose a one-time payment:If you pay for your entire Membership from October through to June (9 months), you’ll receive a 10% discount. Members who choose to pay for their Membership in full at the time of purchase will have one (1) month deducted from their total, and then 10% will be deducted. You can pay in full online with a credit card, or in person at the Winspear Centre Box office with cash, debit, or credit. If you would like to pay in person at the Box Office, please email box.office@winspearcentre.com or call 780.428.1414 to set up an appointment. Your one-time payment will renew for next season automatically in the summer of 2023. You’ll be notified of the exact payment date in late spring/early summer and may choose to opt out or change your payment option then. You will be charged a $5 administrative fee for those months without ESO concerts instead of the regular Membership fee.

Yes, your Membership will automatically renew in summer of 2023 unless you opt out prior to that. You can cancel your Membership at any time after you have paid for two consecutive months.

Memberships are non-transferrable. Any violations of this policy may result in the termination of your Membership. However, if you’d like to purchase a Membership for someone else as a gift, you may do so by contacting the Box Office at box.office@winspearcentre.com or 780.428.1414.

This year, your Membership payments cover October through June. You will be charged a $5 administrative fee for those months without ESO concerts instead of the regular Membership fee. If you choose a one-time payment, it also covers October through June (nine months). Sign up before October 28 to receive one month free!

After you have had a Membership for a minimum of two (2) months, you can cancel your Membership any time up to three business days before your next payment is due, in order to give us time to process your cancellation. However, if you have any tickets booked for upcoming concerts, you will need to pay the difference between your Membership price and the regular ticket price within 72 hours of cancelling your Membership. If you don’t pay to upgrade your tickets, your seats will be released, and the cost of the Membership tickets will be refunded to your original method of payment.

You may either renew your Membership for the month that you have purchased concerts in, or you may pay the difference between the Membership price and the single ticket price.

For example: if you cancelled your Membership in December but had already purchased tickets for concerts in January, you would have to pay the difference in price for those January concerts. You would not be charged an additional amount retroactively for any concerts that you attended prior to December.

This evolved Membership first launched in August 2021 and remains the same for this season. It does, however, work differently than the Memberships offered in 2020.

Yes! Anyone may purchase both a Membership and subscription. This is an excellent way to see not only your favourite series but also concerts in other series, while saving money.
