-There will be tickets available at the door on the day of the event. We will have $20 general admission, a limited amount of $30 4th row and perhaps a couple of $50 2nd row (there were around 5 left when this was written). If you have already purchased general admission tickets and want to upgrade to reserved seats you can on the day of the show.
-You can also still order tickets in the www.DGUSA.tv Store or by calling 267-519-9744 until midnight on Friday. We strongly suggest you order in advance if you want 2nd or 4th row. After midnight on Friday all tickets must be purchased at the door on Saturday. We will refund your shipping cost.
-The Arena is located on 7 Ritner Street, Philadelphia, PA with a zip code of 19148.
-There will be two lines in front of the building, one for Golden Circle, VIP balcony and 4th row reserved ticket holders and one for General Admission ticket holders. Doors will open at 6:00pm for Golden Circle, VIP balcony and 4th row reserved ticket holders only. They will be admitted for a Meet & Greet with some Dragon Gate stars and Bonus Match Card (Eddie Kingston vs. Hallowicked, B-Boy vs. Jon Moxley, Kyle O’Reilly vs. Adam Cole), which will have a 6:30pm belltime. Doors will open for all other ticket holders immediately following the Bonus Matches, at approximately 7:00-7:15pm. Autographs with Dragon Gate stars at the Meet & Greet are free.
-1st & 2nd row Golden Circle ticket holders must pick up their “Independent Tour De Force Vol. 1″ DVD when they first walk in the door. This is similar to how giveaways are done at sporting events.
-Taking video footage with digital cameras, cell phones or any other device at anytime is strictly prohibited. We will have people watching the crowd for this. Anyone taking video footage will be forced to erase it after a thorough inspection of the contents of their device and will then be ejected without a refund.
-Digital cameras will not be allowed inside The Arena.
-Our main goal is to make sure that everyone has a good time and is able to enjoy a great night of action. We expect you to make noise and have fun, but we also ask you to be courteous of those around you. Anyone “trying to get themselves over” (you know what we mean) by being disruptive or yelling profane/stupid things will be ejected without a refund. This is a family show being filmed for national pay-per-view, not the original ECW. Please read the code of conduct at the bottom of the 11/28 page in the Live Events section.
