Our early (7:30PM) Sets
Dinner - We hold tables closest to the stage and give preferential seating to guests who have chosen to have dinner with us.
Non-Dinner - Non-Dinner tables are located near the bar and the outer perimeter of the room and the full menu is available, should you decide to dine with us.
(If you've made a dinner reservation and have decided not to have dinner at Jazz Alley after all, please let the host know before you are seated, otherwise we reserve the right to move you to a non-dinner table.)
Our late (9:30PM) Sets
- There is no preferential "Dinner" seating for the 9:30PM shows.
(INSIDER TIP: The 9:30PM show is a good option if you want to be close, but do not wish to purchase dinner.)

25.) Why is there a Handling Fee and what is it for?
The purpose of the Handling Fee is to cover costs associated with presenting shows and not with the cost of the shows themselves. Associated costs include building shows on our web site, setting it up in our ticketing system, reserved seating selection, the cost of maintaining our ticketing system, the cost of handling and processing credit cards and staffing. Most customers expect to use our web site, select their table, and securely pay for the tables online. This process and the advanced ever-changing technology behind it is costly. Back to top
