When can I buy tickets?
Regular-season pricing starts on February 2nd and ticket pricing moves from tier to tier as capacity limits are sold. Ticket prices and tiers are subject to availability.
What tickets are available?
Single-day tickets are available for Sunday and Monday. Weekend passes are available if you want a Texas-sized weekend.
Do I need a ticket for each day?
Separate tickets are available for each day. If you want to attend multiple days you’ll need multiple tickets or a weekend pass. Tickets are non-transferrable from day to day. Weekend passes are available at a killer discount.
Why should I buy my tickets early?
Our tickets work on a time & quantity tier system. Ticket prices increase as we get closer to the event. This means that the price you see now is most likely the lowest it will be for the rest of the season.
