Frequently Asked Questions

  • The appetizer buffet is designed to replace a light lunch. We will have vegetarian options available. If you have specific dietary restrictions or allergies, please note them in your registration form so we can try to accommodate you!

  • While unlimited non-alcoholic drinks are included in your ticket, a cash bar will also be available for guests 21+ who wish to purchase adult beverages.

  • All ticket sales are final and no refunds or returns will be issued for any reason, including concert or personal schedule changes.

  • We chose this time to accommodate both concert dates and those staying in Arlington for the weekend. A midday meetup allows those with VIP packages to depart early for check-in, while giving others time to recharge, hit up local cupsleeve events, or head to the stadium early to socialize.

  • Click the purple “Get Your Ticket” button to fill out our registration form, then head to your cart in the top right corner to finish checking out. Note: Your ticket isn’t reserved until you complete checkout and receive a confirmation email. If you have any trouble, contact us.

  • No, tickets will not be sold at the door. To ensure we have enough space and food for all attendees, registration will close once final headcounts are submitted to the venue.

  • Texas Live! utilizes the AT&T Stadium parking lots. Expect rates to be between $25–$65 for the day (prices are set by the stadium closer to the concert date). The venue is less than half a mile from the stadium gates—perfect for those heading straight to the show afterward!

  • Absolutely! We love meeting new friends. To ensure everyone gets a custom name badge and we have their correct check-in details, please add each ticket to your cart separately. This allows you to fill out a unique registration form for every person in your party.

  • While the venue allows all ages, please be advised that our meetups are geared toward an adult audience. This means language and humor may be colorful. If you are considering bringing a younger fan, please use your best judgment regarding the environment.

  • Of course! We love to see your creativity, and you are welcome to share your freebies with fellow attendees. Though you do not need to bring a freebie for each attendee, we ask that you share freebies ‘freely’ without requiring a trade.
