Adult Dept., JCCNV. These are timed, prepaid tickets thus there will be no refunds – if you cannot make the trip you can give it to a friend or we’ll replace you only if we have a wait list. Note there are a few steps up to the Petersen house. Also note that the bus MUST leave the JCCNV on time to make the timed entry ticket time, thus we cannot wait for latecomers. Entire time at the Ford’s Theatre Campus will be approx. 2 hours. We will not be stopping for lunch, thus you may bring food for the return bus ride.
