Troubleshooting Virtual Tickets

It is highly suggested that virtual ticket holders test the link for the event once they receive it (either from the order confirmation or the reminder email) and DON’T wait until the virtual event starts. If clicking on the link doesn't work, copy and paste the link into the internet browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Google Chrome, Safari). Switching internet browsers might be another option. Similarly, switching devices (from cell phones/tablets to laptop/desktop computer) is also an option. If none of these options work, email boxoffice@flushingtownhall.org or call (718) 463-7700 x 222 during our regular Box Office hours on Tuesday to Friday 9am-4pm.
