Game Tickets will be Digital this School Year
The AHS Athletic Department is excited to announce that game day tickets to Blue Bombardier home games will be digital beginning this fall season. That means purchasing your tickets will only be possible through GoFan- a digital platform on your smartphone.
This move allows the AHS Athletic Department to track ticket purchases in a format which accounts for all purchases in a much more organized fashion. It also embraces the reality that fewer people are carrying cash with them these days. Moving to digital ticketing provides an easy, quick way to purchase your tickets and gain entry at our gates.
All tickets will be on sale for the following events:
● Home Varsity/JV events.
●Home MIAA States tournament games.
● Several AWAY games will also require digital ticketing
The AHS Athletic Office is fully aware of the fact that some of our fans may initially struggle with the move to digital ticketing. People who struggle with the system, will NOT be turned away from our games. We also ask that you are patient with us as we implement this new procedure. We will make sure Blue Bombardier event staff is present to assist.
Ticket Pricing:
General admission (students/adults): $6
Children: grade 4 and under (FREE)
Senior Citizen (FREE)
NOTE- Thanksgiving Football and tournament games have a different cost structure.
There is no need to upload the GoFan app to your phone but it may make the process a little simpler for you.
Here are the ways to purchase tickets moving forward:
1. Pre-purchasing tickets- This is the way to go!!!! Visit our page on GoFan and follow instructions to purchase tickets. Link to AHS Go Fan page Your tickets will be emailed to you. You must have access to that email on your smartphone when you arrive at the gates.
2. Purchasing at the gate- If you wait to purchase tickets at the gate, the process will take a bit longer. AHS Athletic event staff will be present at the gate to assist in these purchases. You will need a credit card to make the purchase. A smart phone makes the purchase much easier.
We thank you for supporting AHS Athletics- GO BLUE!
