You bet! With our Etix ticketing system, you can pick the exact seats you want and print your tickets from home. This is how the seating sections are arranged. Seats start with row 1 and go up to row 33. The grandstand’s support beams are located in row 12. There is a detailed map, you can see here.
However, due to heavy traffic when tickets go on sale, it is best to choose “Best Available”. That is the quickest way to get the best seats without someone else grabbing them first.
