$15 general admission, $13 seniors, $5 students with ID, free kids 12 and under. HFA member discount is $1 off the price of each general or senior admission paid. Admission may be paid at the door in cash or by check.
We've signed up with Brown Paper Tickets so you can now purchase "tickets" in advance for our concerts. Right now, only general admission tickets are available (but if you're a member or a senior, we will rebate the difference at the door). And there are no actual brown paper tickets - just a list of who has ordered tickets.
What does it cost? Aye, there's the rub. There's no such thing as a free lunch! But Brown Paper Tickets charges only $1.52 a ticket and you can charge with Discover, MasterCard, or Visa. You can buy tickets until about 7:30 AM on the day of the concert. And don't forget: your kids 12 and under are free!
The Lake Street Church is at the northwest corner of Lake Street and Chicago Avenue (map). Enter through the courtyard on Chicago Avenue.
Several city parking lots are within walking distance and are free after 6:00 PM:
ParkingRegulations Change for this public parking lot under the hotel
The downstairs lot that's had free public parking in the permit spots in the evenings and on Saturdays has had a change of policy. There is no more "free" parking except on Sunday and after 9 at night. You'll see the pay box at the north side. Limits for the public spots seem to be 2 hours. Rate is 75 cents per hour.
In Evanston's core business district (bounded by Emerson St. on the north, Lake St. on the south, Chicago Ave. on the east and Ridge Ave. on the west), parking meters are in effect from 8am to 9pm Mondays through Saturdays and are free on Sundays and holidays. This includes the meters in the garage at the Best Western.
Outside the core business district, parking meters are enforced from 9am to 6pm, Mondays through Saturdays and are free on Sundays and holidays (meters).
Violations cost $10.00. If you're planning on eating dinner nearby and then feeding the meter, be advised that they chalk tires to make sure you don't stay longer than two hours.
