ticket hall

Transit purchasing area

A ticket hall is the area of a railway station, underground station, or similar transit facility where passengers purchase tickets and access fare gates or turnstiles.

In British usage especially, it refers to the main concourse where ticketing services, information desks, and entry points to platforms are concentrated.

The ticket hall was crowded with morning commuters.

Large stations may have multiple ticket halls serving different lines or entrances.
