The Braden Auditorium seating chart is interactive: pick a section to see which Twin Cities Ballet: The Nutcracker tickets are available in it. About 409 tickets are listed for this date right now, starting about $57.00. Every listing comes from an independent seller who sets their own price, so two seats in the same section can be priced very differently and you will occasionally see an unusually high asking price. Use the price filter to narrow things to your budget and check more than one section before deciding.
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.

Where should I stay for Twin Cities Ballet: The Nutcracker?
The nearest rooms are the hotels around Braden Auditorium, and the link on this page opens that list already priced for Friday, December 4. They are ordered by real distance from the venue, and every card shows that distance, so you can weigh walking back afterwards against a cheaper room you would have to drive to.
For Twin Cities Ballet: The Nutcracker, can I walk to Braden Auditorium from a hotel?
The hotels page for Braden Auditorium 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 Friday, December 4: 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.
Is StubOrder affiliated with Braden Auditorium?
No. StubOrder is an independent resale marketplace, based in Buffalo, New York, and selling tickets since 2006. It is not affiliated with Braden Auditorium, The Nutcracker, or Twin Cities Ballet, or any box office.
