Tickets
Tickets may be purchased through TicketMaster online. Session tickets will be available for $17.50 per session.
A limited number of tickets will be available to each participating school with a code. This code will be sent to school administration to send out to their fans. Ticket codes will be good for a 24-hour period. Once the code expires, all remaining tickets will be released to the general public to purchase.
Tickets are only good for ONE game. The stadium will be cleared between every game. If you are wishing to attend more than one game, you will need to purchase a ticket for each game. There will be no all-tournament passes available.
All tickets will be digital and available through fans mobile devices. There will be no ticket offices open on the day of the games. Tickets will not be sold onsite.
Due to the limited seating, no passes will be accepted. No ISD passes will be accepted for admission.

The clear bag guidelines can be found here. All spectators will need to comply with the clear bag policy for entry into the arena.
