Before you begin your trip to the 
"David Bowie is" exhibition,
we have some important information to share.
Pay close attention and before you know it,
you'll be immersed in the sound and visions
of David Bowie's personal archive.
Our team is eager to welcome you and check you in.
Please remember that standard tickets 
are for a specific date and time only.
Please arrive at the Museum 30 minutes 
prior to your ticketed time,
and be prepared to wait up to 30 minutes during 
busy periods like weekend afternoons.
The time on your receipt is the time when you 
should be at the entrance of the exhibition
and in line to receive your optional headset.
If you arrive early feel free to 
explore the rest of the Museum,
as your ticket includes general admission.
We love our members.
That's why they receive free priority access tickets
and can skip the general line by checking 
in at our Member Services desk.
Remember to bring your 
Membership card and a photo ID.
All e-ticket holders will be directed to the left,
while those who still need to purchase tickets
will be directed straight to our Admissions Desk.
We recommend leaving strollers, 
large bags, and backpacks at home.
Otherwise these items must be checked at Coat Check.
Be sure to allocate additional time to check these items
so you don't find yourself
under pressure.
It is quite toasty in the exhibition
So we recommend checking your coat.
You might also want to hit up the restroom 
before heading up to the exhibition
since there's no reentry and 
no restroom near the exhibition.
You can be heroes,
but just for one admittance.
Now stay with us as we take you to the exhibition.
This part can get a little complicated.
After check-in,
all ticket holders will be asked to go 
through our special exhibition "Infinite Blue"
to our elevators.
There may be a line for the elevator,
so feel free to take the stairs to the fifth floor.
Once you're on the fifth floor,
follow the orange signs to our Bowie waiting area.
When you see a bright orange wall,
you're in the right place.
Members and special ticket holders will receive
priority access through the headset line.
All general ticket holders will be directed
to the right to wait for their headsets.
Sadly, there's no photography or video
allowed in the exhibition.
But don't worry, we promise plenty of 
photo ops before and after.
If you have a handheld device, 
please put it on Airplane Mode.
This will help us to avoid any audio disruption.
Please be advised that there is limited seating 
within the waiting area and the exhibition.
If you need a seat we can provide you 
with a folding stool or a wheelchair
Before stepping through the door,
prepare yourself for an immersive experience
involving theatrical lighting and sound,
including dim lights, loud music, and strobe lights
that could leave you floating in a most the peculiar way.
If you have any questions or concerns,
make sure to find one of our staff or 
volunteers in the bright orange t-shirts.
The entire experience will take about 90 to 120 minutes
and conclude in our gift shop
where you can pick up exclusive 
"David Bowie is" merchandise.
Please be sure to join us for the many Public Programs
we're hosting as a part of this exhibition.
We hope to see you there.
Now that you're fully prepared,
we hope that you enjoy the exhibition.
And as always,
thank you for visiting the Brooklyn Museum.
