Season ticket
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In sports, a season ticket is a ticket that grants the holder access to all regular-season home games for one season without additional charges. The ticket usually offers a discounted price over purchasing a ticket for each of the home games for a season individually. Season ticket holders are also usually allowed to buy playoff tickets earlier than other fans.
A season ticket is also an option for many music venues (including Opera, Ballet, Symphony houses) and repertory theatre companies and usually offers a discounted price over purchasing a ticket for each concert or play in a series or all concerts or plays in a season.
The seats assigned to season tickets are also generally the better seats in the section that they are offered for. Season ticket holders are frequently offered preferred seating at special events or extra games.
A season ticket can also refer to:
- Southwest Season Ticket a classical music concert series in Arizona
- SMS Season Ticket a British cell phone score notification service
- Season Ticket is the yearly pass for South Eastern Trains in England
- Season Ticket is the name for some sports programming packages for the Dish Network
The world's first season tickets were issued for use on the Canterbury and Whitstable Railway in Kent, England. They were sold to passengers from Canterbury wishing to travel to the Whitstable beaches over the summer season.
