I'm a season ticket holder, how do I reserve my seats and parking?
Season ticket holders are guaranteed their regular-season seat locations if they order by the priority deadline for each round. Ticket reservations can be made online at JMUTickets.com or by calling the Ticket Office at 540-568-3853 during office hours (see below). Season-ticket holders can request additional seats beyond their season ticket quantity. Additional orders are assigned by Duke Club priority points following the priority deadline. Tickets are sent via email for Print-at-Home delivery. Will Call pick-up for tickets is available, but Print-at-Home delivery is strongly recommended to avoid lines and to receive your tickets and parking before game day.
How will parking work for the playoffs?
Season-ticket holders who reserve their seats by the priority deadline receive their same parking as the regular season. Parking passes are also delivered via email for Print-at-Home.Â
Will there be a Duke Club Hospitality Tent
The Duke Club hospitality tent will not be available during home playoff games. For questions or concerns please contact the Duke Club at 540-568-6461. The JMU Duke Club's office hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 19 and Tuesday, November 20 and will be closed Wednesday, November 21 through Friday, November 23.
If I wasn't a season-ticket holder, can I order tickets?
Fans who did not have 2018 season tickets can also pre-order tickets for home FCS playoff games following the November 18 selection show. Orders from fans without season tickets are assigned seats following the priority deadline in order of Duke Club priority, then based on order date. Duke Club members receive one parking pass with their order for lot D2.
