How do you redeem a Masterclass Voucher Pack?

In order to obtain your tickets for the masterclasses you wish to attend, you need to select your tickets ahead of time. This ensures that our classes don’t exceed capacity and everyone has a seat.

Once you have redeemed your tickets, you will receive an email with a PDF file that contains all of your e-tickets. Please have your e-ticket ready upon arrival so our ushers can scan you in at the door.

To redeem our Masterclass Voucher Pack tickets, please follow the steps below:

  • Sign in to your Music Academy account at musicacademy.org.
  • Once you have signed in to your Music Academy account, you will be able to add your tickets to your cart for each masterclass you wish to attend.
  • Once you have filled your cart with all your desired tickets, you will “checkout” and the Masterclass Voucher Pack will automatically deduct the cost up to 20 tickets total.
  • After you have completed the transaction, you will receive an email containing your e-tickets. Your e-ticket is your ticket in to the class!
