ticket offices

Where passes sold

Ticket offices are places where tickets are sold, typically for transportation, entertainment, or events.

The term usually refers to staffed windows or counters at train stations, theaters, stadiums, or similar venues: The ticket offices close an hour before the last show.

As online purchasing has grown, physical ticket offices have become less common.
