*** BUSES ARE SOLD OUT ***
Match-only tickets are currently still available - 6/16/2014
Sunday, July 13 has all the markings of an epic football day. The World Cup Final kicks off at noon PST, and then the Timbers Army will be ready to show Seattle how it's done that same day at 7:00 PM.
Tickets go on sale Monday June 9th at 7pm for a day-long Seattle away experience that could be second to none in Timbers-Sounders lore. A match ticket only option is also available
Buses will depart Portland at 8:30 AM on Sunday 7/13, watch the WC Final in a designated TA (and all ages) venue that seats 1,500 in Seattle, then tailgate and head into the CLink in time for the 7:00 PM match.
As usual, tickets are limited and will be available to 107ist members only. One ticket per member.
The cost is $24 ticket only and $65 bus/ticket PLUS a limited edition Away Day Legends t-shirt!
Members will receive an email with a purchase link/password sometime on Friday June 6th. If you are a paid-up member but have not been receiving the weekly emails please first check your spam folder, if they are not there email us at membership@107ist.org ASAP and we'll look into it.
If you join AFTER the initial email has been sent out on Friday, you will receive your email on Monday before the tickets go on sale. The absolute latest you can join and still be included is Noon on Monday June 9th. If you join after this time you will receive the links within 48 hrs, assuming we're not sold out.
FAQ
When will Seattle tickets go on sale?
What is the cost?
- $24 ticket only.
- $65 bus/ticket (includes a limited edition Away Day Legends t-shirt!)
Do I HAVE to be a member to buy one?
- Yes.
- We will offer tickets to members first and as this is our only regular season Seattle Away this year, we are expecting it to sell out very quickly.
- Ticket purchases will be checked against our member database. If a non-member is somehow able to purchase a ticket, they will be refunded their money and suffer disapproving looks from Travel committee members.
Does that mean only 107ist have access to this away game, or does that mean the 107ist have first access to tickets, then tickets would be available to anyone?
- 107ist members have first dibs.
- IF, and only IF, they do not sell out we will offer them to non-members at a slightly higher price. Again, this is our only regular season Seattle Away this year and we are expecting it to sell out very quickly.
Am I guaranteed a ticket by becoming a member?
- No, you are NOT guaranteed a ticket.
- You are guaranteed the chance to purchase a ticket.
How many tickets can I buy?
Does my husband/wife/friend/sister/grandma/pet frog need to be a 107ist member too?
What's the fastest and easiest way to purchase the tickets when they go on sale?
- Be ready to go as soon as tickets go on sale. Create an Eventbrite account if you don't have one and be logged in.
- We recommend lightning fast internet and an actual computer rather than smartphone.
- If you will be taking the bus, know which bus you and your friends want to be on before you attempt to buy your ticket.
- Don't panic if the bus you want appears to be sold out. Give it about 10 minutes. Oftentimes, in their rush to get a ticket, people will place multiple tickets in their "basket". If those transactions are not completed in 10 or so minutes, the tickets are put back into the available inventory.
I just joined, where is my email with the link in it?
- If you join AFTER the initial email has been sent out on Friday, you will receive your email on Monday before the tickets go on sale.
- The absolute latest you can join and still be included is Noon on Monday June 9th
If we buy the ticket-only option, will we be able to attend the WC Final viewing party in Seattle?
- Absolutely! The address info will be sent closer to the date.
Are the tickets general admission or assigned seats?
- Tickets will have a seat number printed on them. However, the section is general admission and you are free to stand anywhere within our designated area.
What section will we be in?
Will there be a ticket-only option this year?
Why can't we go by Amtrak?
- Scheduling is the main reason. Of course, people are free to travel by train but as far as an official 107ist train, it is just not feasible and would most likely mean spending the night in Seattle.
If I buy a ticket on the bus, can I later switch it for the ticket-only option? (or vice versa)
- Only in the case of a genuine personal emergency*
- Please send an email to awaytravel@107ist.org with your request and we will do our best to accommodate it. Please do not wait until the last minute.
All my friends are on X bus, but I'm on Y bus - can I switch to be with them?
- Only if there is an available spot on Y bus.
- You will need to find someone on Y bus to switch with as the travel committee can not find someone for you.
- If you do find someone to switch with, email awaytravel@107ist.org with your name, the other person's name, respective buses and contact numbers.
I can no longer attend, can I get a refund or sell my ticket to someone else?
- Refunds only given in the case of a genuine personal emergency*
- Tickets can only be sold to other 107ist members (unless purchase has been opened to all).
- Email awaytravel@107ist.org with the purchaser's name, email address and contact info
I bought a "ticket only" for the Seattle away game. Where do I get the real ticket?
- Tickets will be distributed in Seattle. You will receive an email closer to match day with all the details on where and when.
What if I can't get to the ticket pick-up in time?
- It is imperative that you pick up your ticket on time.
- Due to security procedures mandated by Seattle front office and CenturyLink, we are required to enter the stadium as a group.
- If you cannot make it in time due to a genuine emergency**, please contact awaytravel@107ist.org AS SOON AS POSSIBLE and we will leave your ticket at Will Call.
- Please be aware that the travel committee has their hands full on match day and are not always available by email. An emergency contact number will be emailed to everyone closer to the match
What if I get to will-call and there's an error with my order?
- Call the emergency contact number (will be emailed to everyone closer to the match)
*Poor planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on our part.
**Staying at the bar to drink longer is NOT a true emergency.
