Questions about .theater domains
Does .theater suit a touring company without a venue?
Yes. A company or individual stage project can use it as well as a building. Explain where each performance takes place and how audiences can find current dates.
Which .theater registration periods can I choose?
Standard .theater registrations are available for 1, 2, 3, 5 and 10 years. Displayed term prices are full upfront charges. Confirm your term and renewal price at order review.
Can I connect a .theater domain to an existing website?
Yes, if the website service supports a custom domain. Follow that service’s DNS instructions. Domain registration and any paid website service are separate.
What happens after I find a domain?
Add one or more available names to your basket, then continue to registration. Enter the owner details and review the registration term and total before payment. Availability is provisional until the registrar confirms registration.
Will UKC charge me automatically at renewal?
No. UKC sends renewal reminders and an invoice. You need to pay the invoice to renew; UKC does not automatically charge you. Keep your contact details current so you receive reminders.
