Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band:
General Admission Procedures
In an effort to provide a fair and equal opportunity for close
stage access for General Admission (GA) customers, a random, numbered
wristband lottery will be performed the afternoon of the show
to determine which patrons will be first to enter the General
Admission floor area. Patrons may choose to enter the lottery
in an attempt to gain closer access to the stage.
General Admission floor ticketholders who choose
not to participate in the lottery are free to enter the show at
the publicized door opening time (or later) and will have access
to the floor area behind the lottery participants. A limited number
of lottery "winners" will gain access to a small designated
"Front GA Floor" area closest to the front of the stage.
Lottery Rules and Procedures:
1. On the day of the show, sequentially
numbered wristbands will be distributed beginning at 1pm at the
6th Street Entrance, near the corner of 6th and F Streets NW.
Wristbands will only be distributed until 4pm. At that
time, the opportunity to enter the lottery will be over. No more
wristbands will be distributed until after the doors are open.
2. The Primary cardholder (ORIGINAL ticket purchaser)
must be present and have a Government-issued photo ID and the
credit card used to purchase the tickets, along with the remaining
persons who will be attending the show on that ticket order. ALL
people entering the show on each ticket order must be present
in order to be eligible for the lottery.
3. After the cardholder has been verified as having
a GA ticket order, all persons on that order will have wristbands
affixed to their wrists.
4. Wristbanded patrons
may leave the premises, but must return by 4:30pm.
5. When lottery participants return, they will be
directed to line up sequentially according to their numbered wristbands.
When this is done, a patron will draw the starting number. This
number will be announced at the gate. Patrons participating in
the lottery process MUST be present at this time and should be
prepared to stay as the entry process will begin immediately following
the drawing.
6. The patron wearing the wristband that matches
the starting number will now become first in line.
7. All other patrons with GA ticket orders and wristbands
should begin lining up sequentially behind that patron. This line
will then be processed and escorted onto the floor once the venue/tour
is ready to open the doors.
8. A limited number of people, beginning with the
winning start number from the lottery drawing, will gain access
to the Front Area of the floor. Anyone who receives a numbered
wristband prior to doors has a chance to be first in line to enter
the Front Area, provided they abide by all lottery rules and procedures.
However, a wristband does NOT guarantee a place in the Front Area.
9. A second wristband will be required to enter
the Front GA area. This will be applied to the wrist of patrons
in the "winning" lottery range upon entry.
10. The purpose of the random number distribution
is to ensure that all GA patrons have the same chance of being
first in line, thereby eliminating the need to camp out. This
policy also helps to ensure customer safety and provides for an
effective means of crowd control.
**ALL WRISTBANDS WILL BE
ISSUED AT THE GA ENTRANCE, LOCATED ON 6TH STREET, NEAR THE CORNER
OF 6TH AND F STREETS NW**
Notes Regarding Paperless Ticketing:
1. All GA floor tickets
and select reserved sections are paperless. If the credit
card you used to purchase the tickets has been cancelled, stolen,
or lost, it will be in your best interest to email Ticketmaster
at customerservice@tmtickets.com or call 301-808-2405 AND bring
your Ticketmaster order number, photo ID, and an old statement
of the old credit card number with name matching your photo ID
to the venue. This will help to resolve any problems you may encounter
at the gate. If your credit card was re-issued with the SAME NUMBER
and a new expiration date, you do NOT need to take action, as
this new card will be accepted at the venue.
2. Please remember
that all those who are on one ticket order must be present to
enter.
3. Please
be aware that paperless tickets are designed to be used only by
the original purchaser. If you have purchased paperless tickets
via a secondary seller rather than from the primary ticketing
company, you will be denied access to the venue.
