State Finals Ticket Information
All ticket prices for the AHSAA State Finals are $12 per day. A ticket includes eight games per day for semi-final action or six games per day for finals action (with no passes out). In addition to the facility rental fee charged to the AHSAA, the BJCC charges $1 per ticket, bringing the total cost of a ticket purchased, at the gate, to $13. The State Finals is the only AHSAA championship event where GoFan, the AHSAA’s digital ticket provider, cannot be used due to the BJCC’s contract with Ticketmaster. All fees associated with an online ticket purchase for the State Finals go directly to Ticketmaster, not the AHSAA, bringing the total cost of a digital ticket to $17.22. Therefore, the AHSAA recommends you purchase all tickets at the gate. |
