Spectating

Depending on the current state of re-opening we expect to be able to offer spectators the chance to come watch the matches live. We will make a final call on spectators on May 8th. We plan to open our doors for spectators at 9:30a. We plan to charge $10.00 for all day access for all spectators over the age of 2. Robot combat is dangerous and there will be weapons and dangerous things around. We will ask you sign a release prior to entering the space.

• Food trucks in the parking lot.
• On site concessions
• A collectable badge that allows for all day re-entry
• A staff guided tour of the pits
• Time to hang out with the competitors post fight
