Latest local news, weather and sports for Syracuse and Central New York

The Westcott is located at 524 Westcott St., Syracuse, NY. We are the same building that the Westcott Cinema used to occupy.

We have plenty of free parking around the venue for you. There is a lot directly behind the venue that you can park at, you can also park in the large lot behind Sabastino's and Domino's Pizza. There is also plenty of room on the street and side streets for you to park in as well, just be sure to read the signs around you to ensure that you're ok to park there. Please be respectful of our neighbors and don't leave trash in these lots. Just as a heads up, the lot in front of Dorian's is for their customers only and you will get towed if you park there.

You can purchase tickets online at Thewestcotttheater.com. You can also get tickets for our shows at Soundgarden in Armory Square (Downtown Syracuse). If you want to avoid services fees all together, you can pick up tickets at The Westcott Theater box office during shows.

We don't have set hours. We're normally there all day on show days and randomly on non-show days. Your best bet would be to give us a call.

Absolutely. We'd love to work with you, give us a call.

Not all the time. 95% of shows at the theater are standing room only. We do however offer limited seating on our comedy events and certain music events. If the show is partially seated it will say so on the website. Because of whatever circumstances if you cannot stand the entire show or you have a disability, let us know and we can make accommodations for you. Due to fire code, if the show is a half seated / half standing show we won't be able to pull out any extra chairs, so please purchase your seated tickets early.

Typically all shows at The Westcott Theater are all ages admitted. Occasionally, there are age restrictions. Please check the website to make sure.

Most of the time yes, unless the show sells out in advance. If a show is sold out in advance, we'll post it on the website. To avoid this question, purchase your ticket ahead of time, by doing this you're guaranteed to get in.

Yes. The Westcott Theater has a full service bar (serving alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages). Be sure to try The Westcott Ale, brewed by our friends at Magic Hat.

Tickets are not refundable, all sales are final. If a show gets cancelled and you've purchased a ticket, you will get refunded. If the show gets rescheduled, your old ticket will be good for the new date.
