Filming the Season Finale:

VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT TICKET PURCHASING

Filming a television show with a studio audience is a very challenging task. This is information that you need to be passing along to your family and friends, and anyone that is interested in attending the live televised event.  Tickets are $60 flat rate in advance, with a first come, first served seating.

1.       What do I get for my ticket?

Our ticket pricing is in line with pricing for high scale/ high class pageant productions in Toronto.  Normally our event is held in a theatre that can accommodate tiered seating prices and a larger capacity.  As a result of the event being taped for television, we are in a venue that holds a much smaller capacity - in which we have a greater demand than the space we have available.

2.       How can I purchase tickets?

We have three methods that you can send payments:

a.        In person:

If you want to pay in person tickets will be available on Sunday evenings beginning June 15 between 6:00pm – 9:00pm at 95 Brimley Road in Toronto.  The only payments we accept in person is cash, certified cheque, or money order made payable to ES TEAM PRODUCTIONS. We DO NOT accept personal cheques under any circumstance.  Tickets must be ordered 1 week prior to picking up in person.

We can also accept payments over the internet if you want to pick them up in person, but you also must wait one week in order for all payments to clear, and you are welcome to come and pick them up.  At pick up, online orders will be required to show proof of ID.

b.        Online:

Online we accept Visa, Mastercard, AMEX and debit payments, and has an additional $3.30 administration fee per ticket.  If you would like them mailed out to you, there is an additional $10 per order to send items through priority registered mail.

Delegates families may also order tickets online, and at registration can come and pick them up, or likewise can pick up tickets at the door on the night of the final event.  Proof of ID will be required.  There are absolutely NO REFUNDS.

3.       What is the ticketing process?

No matter what method of payment you choose, you will be required to provide your name, address and telephone number, so that we can ensure the protection of your tickets.

If you have pre-ordered your ticket online, you will be required to show valid ID at the time of pick-up, whether it is at our home office, or at the final event.              

4.       How old do patrons have to be to attend?

We regret to inform that children under the age of 10, are not permitted at the live televised taping of our national event.

Due to the demanding filming schedule, and the stringent studio atmosphere, we cannot accommodate interruptions.

5.       Will standing room be available?

Unfortunately not.  As a result of the necessary requirements of multiple cameras, strategically placed throughout the venue, standing room is not available to prevent blocking camera shots.

Patrons are required to remain seated throughout the entire show.  Standing not only blocks other patrons, but will interfere with the television production.  Patrons found standing during the production, will be escorted off of the premises without a refund.

6.       Will my family or I be able to bring a video camera?

Absolutely not!  The only video cameras permitted in the venue, are those of our professional production crew.

The Miss Latina® Canada pageant and all of our related events are exclusive copyrights of Nuevo Mundo Television and ES Team™ Productions.  Any video cameras present during our final filming will be confiscated; if they are caught filming violators will be prosecuted.

7.       Can I bring a regular camera and take still flash photos?

Flash photography is allowed, however filming with a digital device is not permitted.  If patrons are found filming with a digital camera, violators will be prosecuted.

8.       What happens if I arrive late?

If you arrive after filming has began, you will be required to wait until there is a break in the program, where you will be permitted to enter.

Please note that our program begins promptly at 6:30pm, and we do not have many breaks.  Miss Latina® Canada has a reputation for starting exactly on time – therefore it is in your best interest to arrive on time to prevent inconveniences as all ticket sales are final and non-refundable.

9.       What if I have to leave the room once the show has begun?

During filming you cannot leave the room, as you cannot be standing or walking.  Walking – like standing will block camera shots, affect our audio sounds, and cause other patrons to have to rise out of their seats when you leave and when you come back.  All of this movement can cause serious problems in filming.  We operate like any other televised production that do not allow bathroom breaks, smoking breaks, or answering cell phones.  Once you are in production with us as a televised audience member, you must remain until intermission.

Intermission is normally 1 hour and 30 minutes into the program, and lasts approximately 15-20 minutes long.  We encourage patrons to use the facilities, smoke, or make cell phone calls before the program begins, at intermission, or once the program is over.

10.    Can I have my cell phone with me?

Patrons are encouraged to leave their cell phones at home.  If you bring your cell phone to the event, it is absolutely mandatory that they are turned completely off, and not vibrate or silent.

During the live televised taping, we will have many wireless devices that can be severely affected as a result of cell phone interference.

Family and friends that purchase tickets to the live televised taping of the national Miss Latina® Canada event, you agree to adhere to all of the above regulations.
