We are deeply sorry for the extended delay in getting payments and refunds to our customers. We also recognize that our lack of timely communications has added to their frustrations during the COVID-19 crisis.

We’re working hard to make our customers whole and improve our communications. For the latest information, please visit our new microsite and sign up for our listserv. We will email subscribers when we have news to share.

It’s no secret the events business was hit hard by the COVID-19 crisis. The need for physical distancing led to a tsunami of event changes, postponements, and, ultimately, cancellations.

We are working to assist everyone as quickly as possible during these unprecedented and difficult times. Please view our Customer Support Status page for more information. Thank you so much for your patience.

Our crew using BPT's Paid Time-On benefit to volunteer for Pasado's Safe Haven, a truly wonderful animal sanctuary. We put compost in Ziggy's "house" so he would have a softer spot for his injured feet. Look it how nice he poses for pictures! 🦃

The volunteer group from Brown Paper Tickets worked to give our resident male turkey, Ziggy, a comfy yard to walk on by spreading compost. Ziggy also appreciated all the love and attention!

Thank you for all of your hard work! Come back any time!
