TORONTO – Toronto’s Art Gallery of Ontario is warning patrons to beware of possible ticket scams for its massively popular exhibit “Yayoi Kusama: Infinity Mirrors.”
In a post on its Twitter account, the AGO notes it’s “the only authorized seller of Infinity Mirrors tickets.”
It adds: “Visitors may be asked to show ID and risk being disappointed by ticket scams and being denied admittance to the exhibition, due to unauthorized duplication or sale of a ticket.”
The AGO is the only Canadian stop for the smash contemporary art show, which has become a sensation on Instagram.
The exhibit features mirror-lined rooms with kaleidoscopic environments alongside the artist’s works.
Timed-entry tickets first went on sale to the public in January and quickly sold out.
On Tuesday, the AGO released a new block of tickets.
Patrons have taken to social media to vent their frustrations about having to wait in long ticket-purchase queues online.
