Come for a day, or for all eight
Tickets are sold online and at the gate. A pass is the discounted option for regulars: buy it online, pick it up at the stadium entrance, skip the ticket lines, and come and go as you like.
- Passes are personal: they carry your photo and are picked up at the stadium entrance with a government-issued ID.
- Both passes include in-and-out privileges for the days they cover.
- All pass sales are final — non-refundable and non-transferable.
