We are proud to offer an important membership effort that provides invaluable support for the work of the Preservation Hall Foundation while offering very special members-only benefits.
Hall Pass membership revenues support the Foundation’s efforts to preserve, protect and perpetuate New Orleans' music traditions through educational programming and helping sustain our beloved musicians and culture-bearers.
The Hall Pass annual membership is $1000 (as this is primarily a donor appreciation program, 80% of the membership fee is tax deductible) and it will be good for one year from date of purchase. If monthly payments are easier, members may also select a $100/month option, totaling $1200/year.
Members will receive the following benefits:
First dibs on Midnight Preserves** tickets (Hall Pass members will receive a 48 hour pre-sale window with at least a week's notice via email)
Two free tickets to a nightly show each quarter. (2-3 days notice required, 2-3 weeks notice during Mardi Gras and Jazz Fest)
A 20% discount on merchandise at the Hall and online.
The opportunity to purchase exclusive reserved seats with "skip the line" privileges for any nightly show.
Annual appreciation gifts.
Periodic Spotify playlists curated by members of the Preservation Hall collective and friends of the Hall.
An invitation to Beignets and Brass brunches at the Hall during Jazzfest, as well as an invitation to our annual legacy event.

Backstage access at Preservation Hall Jazz Band tour performances around the country, when permitted by venue.
A periodic newsletter keeping you apprised of the latest developments with the Preservation Hall Foundation, Preservation Hall and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band.
Other "lagniappe" benefits throughout the year.
