What to expect
Planning a visit to S. Mark Taper Foundation Auditorium at Benaroya Hall
Choose the Taper auditorium for a main-hall Seattle Symphony program rather than Benaroya's recital or experimental rooms. Confirm the exact auditorium, seating level, program, run time, accessibility arrangements, and ticket terms, then check current transit, parking, entrance, security, concessions, and late-seating guidance before arrival.
