If you purchased tickets through Ticketmaster (the only authorized seller of tickets to events at Nationwide Arena) YOUR tickets were/ will be delivered as mobile to be scanned at entry. Your phone is your ticket!

You can also transfer your mobile tickets to another guest.  We cannot guarantee the validity of tickets purchased from an unauthorized source.  Transfers of third-party tickets must be transferred through Ticketmaster.  Only Ticketmaster mobile-compatible tickets (generated by Ticketmaster and shown on a mobile device as a SafeTix code) will be accepted at entry.

Nationwide Arena does not issue or sell backstage passes to events. Backstage access is strictly limited and is arranged by tour management on a show-by-show basis.

Guests found in these locations without proper credentials may be subject to ejection and/or arrest. 

Children UNDER two (2) years of age are admitted free of charge for MOST events as long as they sit on a lap.  Age limit is subject to change.

When an event goes on sale, there are typically thousands of customers searching for tickets across multiple distribution channels. If 500 fans are simultaneously buying four tickets each, 2,000 tickets can be sold in just seconds.

There is a common misconception that all shows sell out which is actually extremely rare. Most of the time tickets are available at face value until show day. Keep in mind, that at the very start of an on-sale, many seats may be held for several minutes as buyers browse and many will be released back into the pool. The system is set up to sell "best available" at the price level you select. Grabbing those for a hot show is the way to make sure you are not shut out.

Tickets can also be released for sale as the event approaches if the artist or team no longer need tickets they held OR once the stage or event area is set up, the venue has a better idea about which seats are obstructed. Often, great seats are released at the last minute.

Ticket prices are subject to change at any time.

If an event is canceled or rescheduled, return to your original point of purchase.
