TICKETS/WRISTBANDS
Dice 2-Day Passes must be scanned & exchanged for a wristband upon arrival.
Wristband exchange will open at following times:
Saturday – Knockdown Center from 2pm
For those with 3-day passes, wristbands will be collected from Meadows on Thursday evening from 6pm onwards.
Please ensure you bring ID with you. Wristbands are non-transferable & must be worn at all times.
If you bought a ticket for a friend & you will not be arriving together, please don’t worry. Sending tickets to your pals is super simple on DICE. First off, just make sure they have a DICE account, as we can only transfer tickets between DICE users.
Head to the Tickets tab in the app, and tap on the ticket you want to send. At the bottom of the screen you’ll see the option to Send To A Friend. Tap it, enter your buddy’s number and you’re all good.
You can transfer tickets to friends or put your tickets back on the waiting if the event is sold out until 30 minutes before the Box Office opens.
We have some remaining tickets available at the box office, which will open at 4pm on Friday & 2pm on Saturday.
