Limited View Seats
Limited View Seats means you’ll be unable to see the entire stage from those seats. You’ll have either an incomplete view because of the position of the seats in relation to how the artist or band is set up on stage, or something will be in your line of sight like speakers.
Best Ticketing Practices
- Always download your digital tickets from the Internet on a secure Wi-Fi connection before you arrive at the concert. The high volume of cellphone data users at events can slow down mobile Internet connection
- Screenshots, photocopies, and printed barcodes or QR codes of tickets are not valid for entry
- Always view your mobile tickets in advance of the show to prepare for venue entry
- Do not attempt to use mobile entry if your phone screen is cracked. The cracked screen will make the ticket unreadable
- Utilize Apple Wallet or Google Wallet on your phone to organize your mobile tickets
- Always bring a valid, government-issued photo ID and the credit card used in the ticket purchase (if applicable) to the venue
- Do not leave your physical tickets in the sun or expose them to high temperatures. Heat will damage the paper the ticket is printed on, and will make the ticket unreadable
- Always keep your tickets in a safe and secure place before the event. Lost, destroyed, or left behind physical tickets cannot be replaced
- Always make sure your phone is fully charged before the show if you plan on using mobile entry
- Avoid using secondary ticketing sites to purchase your tickets
- Never post a picture of your tickets on social media with the barcode visible. The barcode is valid, and people can use the photo to scan into the event
- If you have issues with your tickets upon entry, please speak to a customer service representative at the box office.
