KNOW BEFORE YOU GO!
SATURday, February 15, 6pm
TEXAS SCIENCE AND NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM
Thank you for purchasing tickets to “Lore” featuring Goliath was Bigfoot on Saturday, Feb. 15. We’re looking forward to sharing a unique set of repertoire in a truly incredible space! Because the museum is smaller than our usual venues—and because we have two different concerts back-to-back—we ask that you please read the below information about concert flow and entry times carefully! Knowing where to be (and when) will help us keep congestion at the entrance to a minimum.
We are thrilled to be able to use such a cool venue, but know that it comes with some logistical challenges. Thank you in advance for your patience during the check in process.
GETTING TO THE SHOW
WHEN & WHERE:
Saturday, February 15, 6pm (Ticket entry times below)
Texas Science and Natural History Museum
2400 Trinity St, Austin, TX 78712
PARKING & TRANSPORTATION: This venue is in the heart of the UT campus. As such, parking can be a challenge. The San Jacinto lot is immediately next door to the venue, but is not free. There is free street parking on Dean Keeton, about 3 blocks from the venue. OR, take the bus! There are several stops along San Jacinto that are a short walk from the venue. You can plan your route here: https://www.capmetro.org/plan/schedmap
ENTRY TIMES, CHECK IN, & MUSEUM ACCESS AFTER THE SHOW
ENTERING & CHECK-IN: All guests will be asked to check in at the front entrance of the museum. While we will have vendors, refreshments on the patio behind the building, we will require guests to first check in at the front to receive a wrist band. There is an ADA accessible entrance at the front, as well—when facing the stairs to the main entrance on Trinity Street, the door is to your left around the back of the stairs. We will have greeters at this entrance to help you get checked in and oriented.
ENTRY TIMES:
5:15PM – VIP EARLY ENTRY: VIP guests will be allowed to enter the concert hall 15 minutes prior to the rest of the ticket groups to save seats. If you miss the early entrance time, however, seating will not be saved for you—once general admission and student entry begin at 5:30, all seats are first-come, first-served. Please leave yourself some extra time to get to the museum to take full advantage of your VIP early entry perk!
5:30PM - GENERAL ADMISSION & STUDENT ENTRY: You will be able to enter the hall at 5:30pm. You are welcome to line up at the entrance prior to your entry time. We will get you checked in, and will allow you to enter once the VIP seating window has closed at 5:30pm.
VISIT THE VENDORS & MUSEUM EXHIBITS: All guests are welcome to stay past the end of the concert and roam the museum! Guests will be encouraged to visit the patio first, as we’ll have various vendors and refreshments for you! Then, if you wish to re-enter the museum, we just ask that you do so by re-entering at the front (same as check in); your wrist band from the show will allow you entry through to the elevators/stairs to the main exhibits, which you are welcome to explore as late as 9:45 pm. (Be mindful that guests will be checking in for the 8pm show between 7:30-7:55 pm; we recommend avoiding trying to re-enter the front during that window to prevent congestion. Before and after are both easier!)
TATTOOS AVAILABLE ON THE PATIO! Tattoos2U will be offering lore-themed tattoos on the back patio from 5-8:30pm. Tattoos cost $80 and will be given on a first-come, first-served basis. Sign up out on the vendor patio once you’ve checked in.
THE SHOW ITSELF!
CONCERT RUN TIME: The concert itself will run from 6pm to approximately 7:10pm in the main atrium of the museum! After the show, you are welcome to visit the patio vendor area and the museum exhibits up until 9:30pm!
CONCERT PROGRAM: Our concert program is offered digitally ONLY. We will have QR codes available for you to pull it up on site, and it will be posted on our website by on Thursday morning.
CONTENT WARNING: Our repertoire for this concert contains some adult themes and language. Children are welcome at their parent’s/guardian’s discretion. We’d also like to warn audiences that this concert will be LOUD. Our partnering band, Goliath Was Bigfoot, has roots in metal and rock; they know how to turn it up! Guests who use hearing aids may considering turning their levels down for the start of the show.
