If you do not ask for your tickets to be posted to you, or if you book too close to the performance date, you can collect them from the venue from one hour before the performance starts. Prior to that, they will be held for you at Hub Tickets until lunchtime on the day of the performance, or the evening before for morning or afternoon events.
