Limited Rudder Auditorium, Overflow Tickets Now Available for Hawking Lecture

Limited seating in Rudder Auditorium for world-famous Cambridge University physicist Stephen Hawking’s 6 p.m. Sunday, April 3 public lecture at Texas A&M University is once again available.

A small block of about 130 tickets in Rudder Auditorium are now available on a first-come, first-served basis in addition to the roughly 230 overflow tickets still remaining in the George P. Mitchell ’40 Physics Building Lecture Hall, which will feature a live video feed simulcast from Rudder Auditorium. The Stephen W. Hawking Auditorium overflow area is sold out.

Officials advise interested parties to act quickly by contacting the Memorial Student Center Box Office at (979) 845-1234 or, toll-free, (888) 890-5667 or ordering online through the Box Office website.

Because the MSC Box Office is closed on the weekends, officials recommend purchasing tickets prior to 5 p.m. Friday (Apr. 1). However, it will open on the day of lecture at 5 p.m. (Sunday, Apr. 3), at which time any remaining tickets will be sold. Officials stress that all tickets — overflow included — must be purchased at the Box Office, as opposed to the Mitchell Physics Building.
