Foggy Bottom–GWU Metro is the closest station, and the University Student Center garage is the primary campus parking option. Event producers set individual door times, ticket rules, and security procedures. Beginning in fall 2025, advance and walk-up tickets use GW’s official box-office platform.
Accessibility
The accessible entrance is on the east side off 21st Street, with a ramp beside the main doors. ADA seating, accessible lobby restrooms, and assistive-listening devices are available. Ask an usher or house manager for the accessible seating area and event-specific accommodations.
