B.Y.O.B. POLICY: The Kennett Flash is a B.Y.O.B. facility for most events. We choose to operate a B.Y.O.B. establishment to maintain the clean, noise-free, all-ages environment of a listening room while simultaneously allowing our audience members to save money on drinks by letting them provide their own preferred beverages. Every B.Y.O.B. fee helps the Kennett Flash achieve our mission.
The Kennett Flash B.Y.O.B. fee is $5 per person who is drinking. B.Y.O.B. is limited to one bottle of wine or one six pack per person. Two persons sharing one six pack or bottle of wine is still $5 per person. The Kennett Flash has the authority to inspect all packages at the door. No hard liquor allowed. Glasses and corkscrew provided.
FOOD: Outside food and beverage (aside from B.Y.O.B.) is not permitted at the Kennett Flash. A selection of non-alcoholic beverages, snacks and candy is available for purchase, as well as fresh, hot pizzas from La Verona (subject to availability).
The Kennett Flash partners with La Verona to provide audience members with the ability to order a limited selection of fresh, gourmet pizzas ready within 10 minutes of ordering (subject to availability). Please order pizzas from the Kennett Flash concession stand. Cash is preferred.
SEATING: All seating at The Flash is general admission, first come, first served. To ensure your party has seats together, please arrive early.

To reserve a table, please purchase the appropriate amount of tickets and then fill out this Google Form, or email [email protected] or call the box office (484-732-8295). Your reservation will be confirmed by email or over the phone. Your reservation is not confirmed unless you receive an email or phone response.

Table reservations are forfeited 15 minutes after the performance starts (1 hour and 15 minutes after doors open).

Please note: There is a small parking lot behind the Kennett Flash “for tenants of the 110 building”. These spaces are reserved for staff, volunteers, and artists until the doors for your event are open. Please park elsewhere if you arrive in town early for dinner to help us keep these spaces free.
