Santa Rosa comedy and travel nerds just got a calendar alert: Luther Burbank Center for the Arts has rolled out a fresh slate of big names for its fall and winter run at the Ruth Finley Person Theater on Mark West Springs Road. Jerry Seinfeld, travel guru Rick Steves, soul-funk staples Tower of Power and more are on the books, with dates stretching from a Rick Steves travel talk in September to a holiday cirque show in December and a Beth Hart concert in January 2027. Organizers say the newly announced performances are set to hit the general on-sale at 10 a.m. Friday, with multiple price levels depending on the show and where you sit.

According to The Press Democrat, tickets for these new dates go on sale at 10 AM on Friday, with face values expected to range from about $81 up to $597, depending on seat location and event. The outlet notes that this is the initial schedule and that additional shows could be folded into the center's season later.

The Luther Burbank Center for the Arts handles ticket sales in person, by phone and online. The venue lists its address as 50 Mark West Springs Road and its box office number as (707) 546-3600, with typical hours running today through Friday from 10 AM to 5 PM, and Saturday from 10 AM to 3 PM, plus opening two hours before showtime, per Luther Burbank Center for the Arts. Patrons who need accessibility accommodations or who are hunting for group deals are urged to check the center's ticketing pages before pulling the trigger on seats.

Who's playing and when

The current lineup includes Rick Steves' "How to See the World" scheduled for Sept. 30, Jerry Seinfeld set for Nov. 14, Tower of Power on Nov. 28, touring holiday spectacle "A Magical Cirque Christmas" on Dec. 18, and Beth Hart on Jan. 16, 2027, along with other comedy and music nights scattered through the season. The Rick Steves date and other timing details were reported by The Press Democrat, while Seinfeld's stop appears on national ticketing platforms such as Ticketmaster and Tower of Power's appearance is listed on regional event trackers like Concerts50.

Seinfeld is a repeat visitor to the Ruth Finley Person Theater, having brought his standup to Santa Rosa several times over the past decade. Local coverage in SFGATE highlights earlier dates, while show logs on Concert Archives track Luther Burbank Center appearances going back to the 2010s.

How to get tickets

Tickets will be sold online, over the phone and at the Luther Burbank Center box office. The center's ticketing pages outline online purchase options, subscription offerings and phone sales details. For the latest on box office hours, group sales policies and accessibility information, visit Luther Burbank Center for the Arts or call (707) 546-3600.

Resale and tips

If a hot show sells out, the safest move is to buy seats either directly through the venue or via verified resale marketplaces and to be wary of one-off social media offers that can turn out to be scams. Fan-education materials on Ticketmaster stress the importance of sticking to verified resale systems and checking each event's transfer and mobile ticketing rules before you pay, since policies can vary by show and seller.
