Fans arriving early, who have tickets to the game, can also attend the “Tailgate on the Terrace,” a special open air tailgate event in which Aramark will be selling food and beverages and live entertainment will be provided.

Fans can have their tickets scanned before entering the Terrace for the event and then enter the Arena from in the tailgate beginning at 6:00pm. Will call will open at 5:00pm to accommodate fans who will be attending the event.
