- Payments may be made by cheque (payable to Grand Theatre), credit card, or debit card/cash, in person.

In the event that a school group is unable to travel to the theatre due to inclement weather, the theatre will make every effort to find an alternate performance on another date for the school to attend. If an alternate date cannot be found, the school/group will receive a credit for a future Student Matinee performance. Credits do NOT apply to decreased numbers from the original contract if fully paid.
- Grand Theatre reserves the right to limit the number of seats available.
- Please note that concessions will NOT be open during Student Matinees. Students may consume snacks in the lobby, but food and drink (with the exception of water) is not allowed in the theatre.
