The San Diego Civic Theatre seating chart is interactive: pick a section to see which Golden State Ballet: The Nutcracker tickets are available in it. About 1,298 tickets are listed for this date right now, starting about $61.00. Prices here are set by the individual sellers rather than by StubOrder, so seats in a single section can vary widely and a few asks sit far above market. Filter by price to set your budget, then compare a couple of sections before you buy.

Prices in the seat map are per ticket and set by professional resellers, so they can land above or below face value. The booking fee is already included in the listing price. Any applicable tax is added at checkout, and a small number of listings add a delivery charge, so check the order total before you pay. Any "from" figure elsewhere on this page is an estimated starting point drawn from the catalog feed, not an amount you can necessarily buy at. The seat map is what shows real, buyable prices.

Golden State Ballet: The Nutcracker tickets at San Diego Civic Theatre start at about $61.00 per ticket on December 20, 2026.

Section and row do most of the work, and a San Diego, California date can price differently from the same tour elsewhere. Open the seat map below to see live prices for every section.

How this price has moved

We have 7 price readings for this event going back 50 days. Over that time the lowest listing has ranged from $52.00 to $59.00. Our latest reading is 7% higher than our first.

These readings are the lowest LISTING price before the booking fee; the booking fee, any tax and, on a small number of listings, a delivery charge are all added on top at checkout, so none of these figures is an amount you would pay. They are here to show movement, not totals. Sellers reprice at will, so past movement is a record of what happened, not a prediction of what happens next.

Frequently asked questions

Does the Golden State Ballet: The Nutcracker ticket price include fees?

No hidden fees. The price on every listing already includes the booking fee, and each listing's details show the split (for example, ticket $311.00 plus fee $62.20 is $373.20). Only sales tax and, on a small number of listings, a delivery charge are added at checkout, and your full total is shown before you pay.

For Golden State Ballet: The Nutcracker, can I walk to San Diego Civic Theatre from a hotel?

The hotels page for San Diego Civic Theatre answers that property by property: every card is labelled walkable, a long walk, or drive or ride, against its real distance from the doors. Worth checking rather than assuming before Sunday, December 20: a downtown arena usually has several hotels within a few blocks, while a stadium off a ring road can have nothing within walking distance at all, and leaving on foot afterwards is usually quicker than queuing for a car or a ride.

Will my Golden State Ballet: The Nutcracker tickets scan at the entrance?

Yes. Every ticket sold through StubOrder is guaranteed authentic and valid for entry, so it will scan, and we take that very seriously. If the venue ever reports a problem with your tickets, the 100% Buyer Guarantee covers you.

When should I book a hotel for Golden State Ballet: The Nutcracker?

As soon as the tickets are settled. Rooms near San Diego Civic Theatre are among the first to go for Sunday, December 20, and what is left tends to cost more the closer it gets. The Hotels near San Diego Civic Theatre link on this page opens already set to that night. Each room is labelled free to cancel, non-refundable, or terms shown at checkout, so you can pick a rate you are able to cancel if the plan changes.

Is StubOrder affiliated with San Diego Civic Theatre?

No. StubOrder is an independent resale marketplace, based in Buffalo, New York, and selling tickets since 2006. It is not affiliated with San Diego Civic Theatre, The Nutcracker, or Golden State Ballet, or any box office.
