Has anyone seen the ticket prices this year? As a family we have always done A1 and the wife and I would do the San Diego round. "Santa" would bring them as stocking stuffers. As the kids got older this was extended to their significant others. This year it may stop as I think they have priced themselves out of the market. A1 is $77 each before fees and San Diego is $81 before fees. The kids have all agreed to pay for themselves but I want to try and avoid that. Does anyone have a discount code? They usually release one after the presale and I have yet to see anything. And these prices are the cheap seats up high, which happen to be the best in our opinion.

For these prices I have a better seat at home. I just miss the tailgating
I go to A1 annually as our company gets a suite for key customers and its mandatory for some staff. I 100% would rather stay at home and watch the race any day. You can BBQ, drink beers and actually see better coverage of the racing without the traffic there and back. The PD has all but killed any tailgating unless you want a fat ticket if you get seen with a beer.

With that said, it is a cool experience for kids to see in person but Feld Ent is making it unaffordable or hard to justify for many. Parking is a major rip off as well last year was $50. Take a family of 4 or more, tickets, parking, food and beverage that is one costly night to watch some SX. Maybe I'm just getting old?

the seats are way better at home, you dont get stuck next to some dude who just wants to fight and party. better food, lines for bathroom are shorter, beer is cheaper. i think the last supercross tickets i bought were 10-15 years ago.

Not that its not still expensive, but I believe the prices posted include all fees? At lease for CA rounds?

I just paid 90 inc fees for Phoenix, seems kinda high, but I'll save some $$ with the $12 beers......

I agree with most of you with the prices and staying home. But, there's nothing like A1.. It's pretty exciting to see the riders on their new bikes, and let's not forget the smells and sounds of the bikes. A few years ago I took my Dad to A1, he had his electric rascal for the long walk from the parking lot since his mobility is limited. A gate worker saw us coming up to the gate and came out to get us, we were escorted to our seats in the club level through the private elevator. Anaheim Stadium is total class. They really do a great job with people with disabilities. I'm gonna ask my Dad if he wants to go, if he does we'll go. It will be great to get him out of the house.

I don't think that in our current economy that $80 is out of control for a seat. Try going to a concert or a ball game these days, you can double or triple that price.

Totally agree with all of it!
Prices are crazy, and you have great seats at home...... but there is just something about being there in person drinking $20 dollar drafts, hearing the bikes, and the smell of race gas!! It's hard to beat...

We usually make a weekend out of it and bring the Motorhome and stay at Orangeland.

I will say I get pretty frustrated trying to watch most of the races on TV. Not sure if a race will be on Peacock, NBC, FS1 or FS2. I wish they would go back to televising all the races live on one channel, on one network. If I can't find it, I lose interest weekly and struggle to stay in tune with what's happening in the series.

I love SX but prices are tough to accept. While I love raiding my stocked bar n bbq’n for the races, it’s so rad being there in person. The smell of race gas and sounds of crisp factory tuned 250 and 450s are irreplaceable, plus the GF loves A1. It’s a real dilemma lol

Peacock has every second of every Supercross and Motocross race.

Another sport I'm priced out of watching in person. I just can't afford to pay crazy ticket prices. Certainly not as a family of 4. Bummer, as in-person SX and MX is awesome.

We go to A2 every year, but I think I’m out this year. We get our tickets from a guy that buys a block of seats and gets a “deal”. This year seats are $275 each and I usually buy 6-8, fuck that.

I feel the same way.. So stupid.. I’m a big Moto fan too, I’m over it.. Sick of the song and dance trying to find what network is covering the race.

Peacock. It’s the reason we have it and literally the only thing we watch on it. It’s good coverage EXCEPT sometimes you can’t watch the replay till a few hours after the race.

We have a suite in Indy - Includes all events if we want to keep them -

Was talking to the lady that takes care of us during games last Sunday and she said she heard for SX it was the suite fee + a ticket price. Everything else includes 20 tickets for the seats in the suite. No idea if true - I am going to check and see if we are keeping the suite for SX. If so I will likely go up for it.

All you guys complaining about paying $75 bucks to attend a Supecross are killing me. Have you bought any NFL or NBA Tickets this century??? You need to sell an organ to afford one of those games, lol 😂

My wife has Peacock for a program she likes, but I'd rather just watch it later on whatever channel Direct TV puts it on, FF and RW are the pits on streaming.

Discounts are hard to come by. Most all the free/ discounted stuff gets given to all the sponsors and teams and are able to purchase ahead of time. So if you happen to know someone in the industry thats who will have the discount. Thats why Anaheim gets so crazy because its oversold every year! Used to go all the time when I was a resident but wouldn’t take the family. Usually took them to San Diego.

Love attending A1 and A2 - some years A3. agree the last few years we feel it is too pricey. Nothing like being there, however. Now watch on TV and light a candle :)

For sure. Finally a Network for ALL SPORTS. It has been so frustrating thru the years. Hope it never changes. That’s also the only reason we have it

I think we will wait and see if a discount code becomes available. If not we will watch it in the backyard and be just as cold as being there! Or go camping that weekend and stream it in the desert. Might be money ahead camping over going to A1.

Peacock had a deal for college students and first responders for $1.99 a month, I saw last month they had it for teachers also.
