​Event Website

​

Spectator Tips:

  • Parking: Plan time to park and walk to the dome. There are many paid parking garages within several blocks of the venue. Many families use the Park Whiz or Spot Hero apps to find and even reserve parking.

  • Event tickets: Each session (prelims and finals) requires a separate ticket. It's recommended that you purchase online. If you want, you can wait to purchase a finals ticket until we know if LHS makes finals.

  • Stadium details: Small, clear bags are allowed in stadium. YIM merch available is for purchase. Concessions are available, and they are cashless concessions.

  • Safety: Just like in any city, we recommend you stay aware of your surroundings (not looking down at your phone), and walk with or have a buddy. 

  • Streaming: TBA
