Our Privacy Policy and any other policies, rules or guidelines that may be applicable to particular offers or features on the Site are also incorporated into these Terms. These Terms shall constitute a valid, binding and enforceable legal agreement among you, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and us.

We may make changes to these Terms at any time. Any changes we make will be effective immediately when we post a revised version of these Terms on the Site. The “Last Updated” date above will tell you when these Terms were last revised. By continuing to use this Site after that date, you agree to the changes.
COVID-19 WARNING:
An inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any place where people gather. COVID-19 is an extremely contagious disease that can lead to severe illness and death. You assume all risks, hazards, and dangers arising from or relating in any way to the risk of contracting COVID-19 or any other communicable disease or illness, or a bacteria, virus or other pathogen capable of causing a communicable disease or illness, whether occurring before, during, or after the event, however caused or contracted, and voluntarily waive all claims and potential claims against Ticketmaster, Live Nation, Event Providers, and their affiliated companies relating to such risks.
Please note that while some of the events listed on the Site may appeal to children, the Site is not targeted at children under the age of 13, and they are not permitted to use the Site. We strongly encourage all parents and guardians to monitor the Internet use by their children. If you use the Site, you affirm you are at least 13 years old.
Purchase Policy
Balls, pucks, and other objects may fly into the spectator area during an event. Despite spectator shielding, injury can occur. Stay alert at all times before, during and after play or performance. If struck, immediately ask an usher for directions to a medical station. You voluntarily assume all risks and danger incidental to the event for which the ticket is issued, whether occurring before, during or after the event, and you waive any claims for personal injury or death against us, management, facilities, leagues, artists, other participants, and all of our respective parents, affiliated entities, agents, officers, directors, owners and employees on behalf of yourself and any accompanying minor. You bear all risks of inclement weather. Event date and time are subject to change. See the Limitation of Liability section in the Terms of Use for additional limits on our liability.

Links
The Site contains links to other websites that may not be owned or operated by us. The fact that we may link to those websites does not indicate any approval or endorsement of those websites. We have no control over those websites. We are not responsible for the content of those websites, or the privacy practices of those websites. We strongly encourage you to become familiar with the terms of use and practices of any linked website. Your use of other websites is at your own risk and is subject to the terms of those websites.

The Site is directed to people residing in the United States. We do not represent that Content available on or through the Site is appropriate or available in other locations. We may limit the availability of the Site or any service or product described on the Site to any person or geographic area at any time. If you choose to access the Site from outside the United States, you do so at your own risk.
Purchasing Tickets
The Advanced Services offer you the ability to purchase tickets from individuals and businesses that hold tickets purchased from Tampa Bay Buccaneers. These individuals and businesses are the sellers of the tickets, not us or Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Although we or Tampa Bay Buccaneers may process your payment, or may be the name that you see on your credit card statement, neither we nor Tampa Bay Buccaneers is the seller of the ticket. When you purchase a ticket from a third party via the Advanced Services, the original ticket will automatically be cancelled and invalidated, your credit card will be charged the ticket price and all applicable fees, and you will be issued a new ticket. You will not be able to obtain a refund or exchange after a ticket has been purchased, unless required by law or otherwise permitted by Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers may require you to pay a fee, to be a season ticket holder, to be on the waiting list to be a season ticket holder or to comply with a registration or other requirement, in order to view listings of, or to purchase, some or all of the tickets posted for sale. We and Tampa Bay Buccaneers make no warranty or guarantee about the quantity or quality of tickets that will be available for purchase if you pay such a fee, are a season ticket holder, are on the waiting list to be a season ticket holder or comply with registration or other requirements. Please see Tampa Bay Buccaneers website for further restrictions.
Orders are processed only after a billing address, and other billing information, has been verified. Occasionally, we receive incorrect billing or credit card account information for a ticket order that can delay processing and delivery. In these cases, we will attempt to contact you, using the information provided at the time of purchase. If we are unable to reach you after our initial attempt, we may cancel your order and may sell your tickets to another customer without further notice.
If you do not receive a confirmation number (in the form of a confirmation page or email) after submitting payment information, or if you experience an error message or service interruption after submitting payment information, it is your responsibility to confirm whether or not your order has been placed. Only you may be aware of any problems that may occur during the purchase process. We will not be responsible for losses (monetary or otherwise) if you assume that an order was not placed because you failed to receive confirmation.
Seat views displayed on the Site may not be an exact representation.
Opening acts or guests may sometimes tour with headlining performers. We are not always made aware of opening acts or the length of their performances. Opening acts, as well as festival performers, are subject to change or cancellation at any time without notice. No refund will be owed if an opening act or festival performer is changed or canceled.
You agree that you will not attempt to evade, avoid, or circumvent any refund prohibitions in any manner with regard to tickets you purchased. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you will not contact us to seek a refund or exchange from us when we are prohibited from providing one by its clients, and you will not dispute or otherwise seek a “chargeback” from the company whose credit card you used to purchase tickets from the Site. Should you do so, your tickets may be canceled, and we may, in its sole discretion, refuse to honor pending and future ticket purchases made from all credit card accounts or online accounts on which such chargebacks have been made, and may prohibit all persons in whose name the credit card accounts exist and any person who accesses any associated online account or credit card or who otherwise breaches this provision from using the Site.
If we issue you a refund for a ticket due to a canceled or postponed event, we will issue a refund of the ticket price paid and all service fees. In no event will delivery charges or any other amounts be refunded. If a refund is issued, it will be issued using the same method of payment that was used to purchase the tickets. We will not be liable for travel or any other expenses that you or anyone else incurs in connection with a canceled or postponed event.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers reserves the right, without refund of any amount paid, to refuse admission to, or eject, any person whose conduct management deems disorderly, who uses vulgar or abusive language or who fails to comply with Tampa Bay Buccaneers rules. Breach of terms or rules will terminate your license to attend the event without refund. A ticket is a revocable license and admission may be refused upon refunding the ticket’s face amount. A ticket is not redeemable for cash.
You agree that the event for which you purchase tickets is a public event, that your appearance and actions inside and outside the venue where the event occurs are public in nature, and that you have no expectation of privacy with regard to your actions or conduct at the event. You grant permission to us and the Event Provider(s) to utilize your name, image, likeness, acts, poses, plays, appearance, movements, and statements in any live or recorded audio, video, or photographic display or other transmission, exhibition, publication or reproduction made of, or at, the event (regardless of whether before, during or after play or performance) for any purpose, in any manner, in any medium or context now known or hereafter developed, without further authorization from, or compensation to, you or anyone acting on your behalf.
We are not responsible for providing transportation or reimbursement of travel-related expenses under any circumstances unless those items are specifically included as part of a package. We are not responsible for any delay causing you to arrive late or miss your event for any reason. If our actions result in you missing your event, we will not be liable for more than your total purchase price. We are not responsible for the conditions or the actions of the crowd at any event or for any changes made at the venue including without limitation seating arrangements, stage set-up or venue conditions.
Balls, pucks, and other objects may fly into the spectator area during an event. Despite spectator shielding, injury can occur. Stay alert at all times before, during and after play or performance. If struck, immediately ask an usher for directions to a medical station. You voluntarily assume all risks and danger incidental to the event for which the ticket is issued, whether occurring before, during or after the event, and you waive any claims for personal injury or death against us, management, facilities, leagues, artists, other participants, and all of our respective parents, affiliated entities, agents, officers, directors, owners and employees on behalf of yourself and any accompanying minor. You bear all risks of inclement weather. Event date and time are subject to change.
You and your belongings may be searched on entry to the event. You consent to such searches and waive any related claims that may arise. If you elect not to consent to such searches, you may be denied entry to the event without refund or other compensation. Under certain facility rules, certain items may not be brought into the premises, including without limitation, alcohol, drugs, controlled substances, cameras, recording devices, laser pointers, strobe lights, irritants (e.g., artificial noisemakers), bundles and containers.
Unlawful resale (or attempted resale), counterfeit or copy of tickets is grounds for seizure and cancellation without compensation. Certain maximum resale premiums and restrictions may apply in some states and we cannot be responsible for providing legal advice regarding resale or pricing of tickets. You are responsible for complying with all applicable ticket resale laws.
Tickets may not be used for advertising, promotions, contests or sweepstakes, unless formal written authorization is given by us.
Posting Tickets for Sale
If you use the Advanced Services to sell a ticket, you will be the ticket’s seller, not us or Tampa Bay Buccaneers. We and Tampa Bay Buccaneers are only providing certain services that will facilitate your sale. Unlawful resale (or attempted resale), counterfeit or copy of tickets is grounds for seizure and cancellation without compensation. Certain maximum resale premiums and restrictions may apply in some states and we cannot be responsible for providing legal advice regarding resale or pricing of tickets. You are responsible for complying with all applicable ticket resale laws, rules and regulations when listing your tickets on any resale platform owned or controlled by us.
Before posting a ticket for sale via the Advanced Services, please consult the website through which you will be posting your ticket for sale, which detail the prices at which you may post tickets for sale via the Advanced Services, the amounts that will be deducted, retained or charged from or over the sale price, the amounts that will be credited or remitted to you, the method by which you will receive such credit or remission and other terms applicable to the posting, sale and funds collection, retention, deduction and payment or crediting processes. Once a ticket has been ordered by a potential purchaser, you will not be able to modify or cancel your posting of that ticket, or to stop that ticket’s sale, even though title to that ticket may not pass to the purchaser until a later time. We or Tampa Bay Buccaneers will collect funds from the purchaser, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers will transmit to you a credit or payment as described elsewhere in these Terms.
By posting a ticket using the Advanced Services, you authorize us and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, upon purchase of the ticket by another person through the Advanced Services, to cancel and invalidate your right to use or convey the ticket, and you acknowledge that the posted ticket will thereafter be invalid for entry to the applicable event by you or anyone other than the person who acquires that ticket via the Advanced Services (or any person lawfully receiving the ticket from such acquirer). Tampa Bay Buccaneers will be responsible for all payments and credits to you, you will solely hold Tampa Bay Buccaneers responsible for such payment or credit and neither we nor any other person or organization will be liable therefor.
Please note that not all members of the public may be able to purchase, or view listings for, tickets that you post for sale, as Tampa Bay Buccaneers may require potential purchasers to pay a fee, be a season ticket holder, be on the waiting list to be a season ticket holder or comply with a registration or other requirement, in order to view listings of, or to purchase, some or all of the tickets posted for sale. You will not be entitled to receive any part of any payment made in connection with having access to ticket listings or ticket purchase capabilities, or in connection with wait list or season ticket holder status.
You agree that you will not sell, convey, give away, forward, otherwise distribute, try to use or take any action that directly or indirectly allows to be cancelled or invalidated: (a) any ticket before or during any time that it is posted for sale via the Advanced Services, (b) any sold, forwarded or otherwise cancelled or invalidated tickets, or (c) any ticket that you have already sold, conveyed, forwarded or otherwise distributed to another.
If an event for which you sell a ticket via the Advanced Services is cancelled, then you will be obligated to return, within five days of notice by Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the difference between the amount of payments you collected in connection with such sale and the amount of money that Tampa Bay Buccaneers would have refunded to you had you still been the holder of (i.e., as if you had not yet sold) such ticket when the event was cancelled. In such a case, if you did not receive a payment from Tampa Bay Buccaneers but instead received a credit, then the credit will be reduced so that it instead equals the amount of money that Tampa Bay Buccaneers would have refunded to you had you still been the holder of such ticket when the event was cancelled. If an event for which you sell a ticket via the Advanced Services is postponed and the purchaser of such ticket is given a refund of the amount that that purchaser has paid, then you will be obligated to return, within five days of notice by Tampa Bay Buccaneers, all of the payments you collected in connection with such sale, but Tampa Bay Buccaneers will return the ticket to you that you sold so that you can then use it to attend the event. In such a case, if you did not receive a payment from Tampa Bay Buccaneers but instead received a credit, then the credit will be entirely reversed (so that you will no longer have a credit), but Tampa Bay Buccaneers will return the ticket to you that you sold so that you can then use it to attend the event. Any failure by you to pay any amounts owed under this paragraph within such five days will constitute a material breach of these Terms.
The following applies only to resale tickets to Illinois events: If you purchase resale tickets to an event located in Illinois, you will receive a refund of the amount you paid for that resale ticket if (a) the ticketed event is canceled (in which case you will not receive a refund of any delivery fees), (b) that ticket does not allow you to enter the ticketed event for reasons that may include, without limitation, that the ticket is counterfeit or that the ticket has been canceled by the issuer due to non-payment, unless the ticket is canceled due to an act or omission by you, (c) that ticket fails to conform to its listing description, or (d) you failed to receive that ticket.
The following applies only to resale tickets to New York events: If you purchase a resale ticket to an event located in New York, you will receive a refund of the amount you paid for that resale ticket if: (a) the ticketed event is canceled (in which case you will not receive a refund of any order processing and delivery fees); (b) that ticket does not allow you to enter the ticketed event, unless the ticket is canceled due to an act or omission by you; or (c) that ticket fails to conform to its listing description unless you have pre-approved a substitution of tickets.
Sold Tickets
Before we can pay you, we will need to collect your taxpayer information in accordance with applicable laws. Ticketmaster is generally required to file a Form 1099-K report with the IRS if the gross amount of your transactions on our marketplaces is $600 or more in a calendar year. Ticketmaster will generally provide you a copy of the Form 1099-K by January 31 of the following year. Many states may also require Ticketmaster to report when you have made at least $600 in transactions on our marketplaces, although some states may require reporting based on different thresholds. When required, Ticketmaster will generally provide you a copy of any state forms. For more information, please go to our FAQ page 1099-K Form: Answer to Some Common Questions.
Other Purchases and Services
You may be able to access Advanced Services to:
- purchase or renew season tickets
- register for season ticket waiting lists
- purchase rights of refusal for post season event tickets

Group Tickets
Tampa Bay Buccaneers may allow a designated person (“Group Manager”) to distribute group tickets. If you are in the group ticket distribution, the Group Manager will send you an email to retrieve print-at-home tickets. You will be responsible for printing out and using your tickets. Either you or the Group Manager will be responsible for paying for the tickets, as applicable. If the Group Manager pays for a ticket, then the Group Manager may cancel ticket distribution at any time, even after you have already retrieved your ticket, in which case you will not be able to use it to attend the event. If you are responsible for paying for a ticket, then the Group Manager may only cancel ticket distribution before you pay for the ticket; once you pay for a ticket the Group Manager will not be able to cancel it. You will not be able to obtain a refund or exchange after a ticket has been purchased, unless required by law or otherwise permitted by Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Season Ticket Forwarding
The Advanced Services may permit you to forward your season tickets to another person. You can send an email invitation with a link to transfer your tickets and if the recipient accepts your offer, the tickets will be placed into the recipient’s Ticketmaster account. Once the recipient accepts your offer, you will not be able to cancel the tickets.
Tickets forwarded using the Advanced Services are subject to the ticket authentication and delivery fees as disclosed to you by us or Tampa Bay Buccaneers. You may be required to provide your credit card number and other information in order to pay such fees, which will be processed or collected by us or Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Such fees are not refundable under any circumstances.
If Tampa Bay Buccaneers offers a program that allows you to forward your tickets to a charity, you should read the rules posted relating to such program on Tampa Bay Buccaneers website. You should not assume that you will receive a tax deduction for forwarding tickets to a charity or any documents that can be used to support a tax deduction.
Violation of these Terms
We may investigate any violation of these Terms, including unauthorized use of the Site. We may provide law enforcement with information you provide to us related to your transactions to assist in any investigation or prosecution of you. We may take legal action that we feel is appropriate. You agree that monetary damages may not provide us a sufficient remedy and that we may pursue injunctive or other relief for your violation of these Terms. If we determine that you have violated these Terms or the law, or for any other reason or for no reason, we may cancel your account and prevent you from accessing the Site at any time without notice to you. If that happens, you may no longer use the Site or any Content. You will still be bound by your obligations under these Terms.
You agree that we will not be liable to you or any third party for termination of your access to the Site or to your account or any related information, and we will not be required to make the Site or your account or any related information available to you. If you violate these Terms, your transactions, distributions, deliveries, credit authorizations, payments, payment receipts, registrations, log-ins, ticket forwards, ticket postings, ticket sales, ticket purchases, ticket forwarding receptions, ticket orders, group management or participating or ticket management (any of the foregoing, or any other activities or transactions for which you use the Advanced Services, each an “Activity”), or season, package, group or other tickets, may be cancelled, set-offs and debits may be taken against your accounts and credits and payments that would otherwise be owed to you, and we may exercise any other remedy available to us.

We reserve the right to take exclusive control and defense of any claim, and you will cooperate fully with us in asserting any available defenses.
Disputes, Including Mandatory Arbitration and Class Action Waiver
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Site, or to products or services sold or distributed by us or through us, will be resolved by binding arbitration rather than in court, with the following exceptions:
- You may assert claims in small claims court if your claims apply;
- If a claim involves the conditional license granted to you as described in the Ownership of Content and Grant of Conditional License section above, either of us may file a lawsuit in a federal or state court located within Los Angeles County, California, and we both consent to the jurisdiction of those courts for such purposes; and
- In the event that the arbitration agreement in these Terms is for any reason held to be unenforceable, any litigation against us (except for small-claims court actions) may be commenced only in a federal or state court located within Los Angeles County, California, and we both consent to the jurisdiction of those courts for such purposes.
The arbitration agreement in these Terms is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA), including its procedural provisions, in all respects. This means that the FAA governs, among other things, the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration agreement and all of its provisions, including, without limitation, the class action waiver discussed below. State arbitration laws do not govern in any respect.
This arbitration agreement is intended to be broadly interpreted, and will survive termination of these Terms. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to the extent permitted by law to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Agreement, including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of this Agreement is void or voidable. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages), and must follow these Terms as a court would.
To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to: Live Nation Entertainment, Inc., 9348 Civic Center Drive, Beverly Hills, CA 90210, Attn: Legal. You may download the forms located at https://www.jamsadr.com. The arbitration will be conducted by JAMS under its Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures or, if applicable, its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, and any applicable supplemental rules including its Consumer Arbitration Standards of Minimum Fairness. The JAMS Rules are available online at https://www.jamsadr.com or by calling (800) 352-5267. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by JAMS’s rules. We will reimburse those fees for claims totaling less than $10,000 unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous, but in no event will we pay for attorneys’ fees. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in person in the county where you live or at another mutually agreed location.
We each agree that the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding, and that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. You agree to waive any right to a jury trial or to participate in a class action. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration section will be null and void and neither of us will be entitled to arbitrate our dispute.
You agree that these Terms evidence a transaction involving interstate commerce and will be governed by and construed in accordance with federal law to the fullest extent possible. However, if your dispute is regarding the re-sale of a ticket for any event located in Illinois, then these Terms will be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of Illinois, without regard to conflict or choice of law rules, and you consent to personal jurisdiction, and agree to bring all actions, exclusively in Chicago, Illinois. If you have an inquiry regarding a ticket re-sale transaction for any event located in Illinois, please contact us at 550 W.

No person, regardless of age, may enter the Stadium without a ticket, and re-entry is prohibited. Admission may be refused or withdrawn, or ticket holder ejected, in the sole discretion of the Buccaneers or Tampa Sports Authority (“TSA”) (collectively, “Management”). The ticket holder and/or purchaser (“Holder”), any individual using tickets issued to Holder (including, but not limited to, any accompanying minor), and all other persons acting or purporting to act on Holder’s behalf, agrees that (i) this ticket is subject to these terms and conditions (“Terms”), and (ii) by accepting and/or using this ticket, Holder (both on behalf of itself and on behalf of each person who enters the Stadium, including parking areas or entry gates, using tickets issued or provided to Holder), is deemed to have read and understood the Terms, and agrees to be bound by them. Holder represents and warrants that each person who enters the Stadium, including parking areas or entry gates, using tickets issued or provided to Holder, has authorized Holder to act on their behalf for purposes of agreeing to these Terms. Failure to comply with any of these Terms shall result in forfeiture of this license and all rights arising hereunder without refund and shall entitle Management to pursue all legal remedies available. Admission may be refused or revoked and Holder may be ejected in the sole discretion of Management.
ALL TICKET SALES ARE FINAL AND NON-CANCELABLE. NO REFUNDS OR EXCHANGES EXCEPT AS PROVIDED HEREIN.

If any portion of an Event is played and subsequently cancelled, such Event will be deemed completed for the purposes of these Terms and no refunds or credits will be given. No refund or remedy will be provided if the Event is postponed and the rescheduled Event date is announced within thirty (30) calendar days, or if Holder is ejected from or refused entry to the Stadium.Additionally, no refund or remedy will be provided by reason of Holder’s failure to use this ticket for the Event. IN NO EVENT SHALL HOLDER BE ENTITLED TO ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY AMOUNT PAID IN EXCESS OF THE FACE VALUE FOR THIS TICKET.
The date and time of the Event (and the opening of Stadium gates) are subject to change by Management in its sole discretion, and no such changes shall entitle Holder to a refund or any other remedy if the Holder cannot attend the Event or for any other reason. Please also be aware that there are certain games scheduled during the NFL’s flexible scheduling window for which the date and time of the games may be changed from what is originally reflected on the schedule and what may appear on the ticket. For more information about NFL flexible scheduling procedures for the 2024 NFL Season, please visit https://www.nfl.com/schedules/flexible-scheduling-procedures. Holder’s seat(s) may also be relocated in the sole discretion of Management, and no such relocation shall entitle Holder to a refund or any other remedy provided that Holder’s seat(s) is/are relocated to seat(s) of comparable value as determined by Buccaneers in its sole discretion.
Holder agrees to comply with all Event Policies, including without limitation policies addressing security and fan conduct, health screenings, safety, and bags (https://raymondjamesstadium.com/policies-procedures). Holder and Holder’s belongings may be searched or assessed prior to or upon entry into the Stadium or at any other time while at the Stadium. Prohibited items may be confiscated and/or Holder may be denied admission or have Holder’s admission revoked at any time at the sole discretion of Management. Holder consents to such searches and assessments and waives all claims relating to them. If Holder does not consent to such searches and assessments, Holder acknowledges that Management and the NFL each reserve the right to deny admission of, and to ban from future NFL games and events, any person who it, determines, in its sole discretion, poses a risk to the health, safety, or enjoyment of other attendees and/or whose conduct violates these Terms, the Fan Code of Conduct, or is otherwise disorderly (or complicit in such conduct) without refund.

Violators will be removed from the Stadium and subject to arrest and prosecution, forfeiture of ticket privileges, and other penalties including up to a lifetime ban. Violators may also be subject to civil penalties and/or fines, as well as financial liability for any damages, costs or injuries incurred as a result of such unauthorized entry or interference. Such conduct constitutes a serious breach of Management’s safety and security protocols, and violators assume any and all risks associated therewith, including the risk of personal injury (including death), and the risk of loss or damage to personal property.

Holder shall be permitted to transfer the ticket(s) to another person not impacted by such guidance and no refunds will be provided to Holder.

*Section 2: Season Pass Provisions*
In addition to all General Provisions Applicable to all Tickets set forth herein in Section 1, the below Season Pass Provisions additionally apply to those tickets secured as part of a Season Pass. To the extent any provision of the General Provisions above conflict with the below Season Pass Provisions, these Season Pass Provisions shall prevail. PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT THE MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND WAIVER OF A JURY TRIAL AND CLASS ACTION PROVISIONS, SET FORTH IN SECTION 1 HEREIN, APPLY WITH EQUAL FORCE TO DISPUTES ARISING FROM, OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO, TICKETS SECURED AS PART OF A SEASON PASS.
*PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT AS OF AUGUST 15, 2022, ENROLLMENT IN THE ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP PLAN DESCRIBED BELOW (WHICH INCLUDES AN AUTO-RENEWAL FEATURE) IS MANDATORY FOR ALL HOLDERS WITH A SEASON PASS.
By purchasing a season pass ("Season Pass") from the Buccaneers, the Holder shown on the invoice agrees to these Terms. Neither the Terms nor any invoice sent to Holder shall constitute an offer. The Terms shall not be an enforceable agreement, and a ticket subscription purchase or renewal shall not be completed, until both (a) Holder (or Holder’s Related Persons) submits it to the Buccaneers with the appropriate acknowledgment and acceptance of the Terms (either by signature or, if on-line, by click acceptance), and (b) Holder thereafter receives a written notice from the Buccaneers confirming season ticket holder status.
Season Pass: A Season Pass is an indivisible revocable license issued annually by the Buccaneers that provides Holder tickets to attend all pre‐season and regular season Buccaneers home games during the applicable NFL Season at the Stadium. Season Passes expire after one season and create no rights beyond that season, including no right to renew, or to specific seats. The Season Pass includes parking if shown on the invoice, which will be distributed electronically. It is Holder’s responsibility to ensure that Holder’s contact information is up to date in Account Manager at all times.
Pay As We Play Post-Season Tickets:Your Tampa Bay Buccaneers Annual Membership automatically enrolls you into the NFL’s Pay As We Play program for playoff tickets. By being enrolled in the NFL’s Pay As We Play program, Holder agrees to purchase tickets to all available Tampa Bay Buccaneers post-season home games (excluding the Super Bowl) at an additional cost above and beyond the Season Pass. Enrollment confirms the same ticket(s) (subject to the relocation policy as provided in these Terms) to Tampa Bay Buccaneers post‐season games played at the Stadium, with the exception of the Super Bowl. For each Tampa Bay Buccaneers post-season home game, Holder agrees to pay the post-season ticket cost immediately after the Buccaneers clinch participation in such game. Holder’s agreement to purchase post-season tickets, and any such tickets Holder purchases through the NFL’s Pay As We Play program, are governed by these Terms. You may opt-out of your enrollment into the NFL’s Pay As We Play program annually by submitting the form located at https://www.buccaneers.com/payasweplayoptout no later than seventy-two (72) hours after being notified by the Buccaneers of the playoff ticket pricing. Once the form is submitted, an email will be sent to your email listed on Account Manager confirming your opt-out request.
Revocation: The Buccaneers may revoke a Season Pass in its sole discretion at any time with or without cause. If the Buccaneers revoke Holder’s Season Pass because of account ownership disputes or without cause, Holder’s exclusive remedy is a refund of amounts paid to the Buccaneers for which no corresponding benefits have been provided as determined in the Buccaneers’ sole discretion. If the Buccaneers revoke a Season Pass with cause due to Holder’s default (“Default”), Holder is not entitled to a refund. Default includes (1) violating Ticket Resale/Broker Policy or Transfer Limitations (below), (2) failing to make timely payment on the Season Pass, and (3) violating any other provision of these Terms or any other of Management’s terms or policies, which may be amended from time-to-time, including policies regulating misconduct, drunkenness or disorderly behavior at the Stadium. Holder agrees it is impossible to determine at the time Holder agrees to these Terms, the damage and loss the Buccaneers would incur due to Default. Therefore, without limiting any of available rights, if Holder does not pay by the due date and does not cure such nonpayment within ten (10) days of written notice of nonpayment, or if the Season Pass is otherwise revoked due to Default, the Buccaneers reserve the right, in its sole discretion, to (1) cancel any unissued tickets, (2) deactivate any tickets issued to future games, (3) retain all sums paid, and/or (4) demand payment in full. The Buccaneers have no duty to mitigate damages incurred due to Default. Any delay in enforcing any available rights under these Terms shall not constitute waiver of any such rights.
Season Pass Account Transfer Restriction, Ticket Resale/Broker Policy: Holder’s Season Pass account, including privileges granted by the license thereunder, may not be sold, assigned, or transferred without the Buccaneers express written consent, which may be granted, withheld, or conditioned in its sole discretion and such consent shall only be considered once the Season Pass has been paid in full. Any sale, assignment, or transfer of Holder’s Season Pass account without the Buccaneers express written consent is void. The Season Pass is an indivisible revocable license. Holder acknowledges that the spirit of being a season ticket holder is not financial gain or other benefit by reselling the tickets, but embodies a desire to support the Buccaneers. Holder acknowledges that the Buccaneers may monitor ticket resale and/or transfer activity. If Buccaneers determine that Holder has purchased a Season Pass for the primary purpose of reselling the tickets, as determined by Buccaneers in its sole discretion, Buccaneers may revoke the Season Pass or disable Holder’s ability to post tickets for resale through Account Manager. And while any such determination pursuant to this section is subject to the Buccaneers sole discretion, it is hereby acknowledged that reselling 50% or more regular season games during any such season is customarily deemed inconsistent with the spirit of being a season ticket holder.
Seat Relocation: Seat relocation requests may be accepted or granted in the Buccaneers’ sole discretion and based on availability.
Relocated or Unplayed Games: If fewer than ten (10) total pre‐season and regular season Tampa Bay Buccaneers games are played at the Stadium during the season due to causes or circumstances within the Buccaneers control, the Buccaneers in its sole discretion will either: (1) reduce the total amount due by the face value of the ticket, as determined by the Buccaneers in its sole discretion, for the game(s) not played at the Stadium (the “Face Value”); (2) credit Holder’s Season Pass account for the Face Value; or (3) refund Holder the Face Value. If any scheduled Tampa Bay Buccaneers home game at the Stadium is played without fans, cancelled and not rescheduled, or relocated outside of Tampa, Florida (each, an “Affected Game”) due to any cause or circumstance whatsoever beyond the Buccaneers control, including but not limited to strike (including a National Football League Players Association strike), lockout (including an NFL lockout), civil violence, inability to procure material, failure of electricity or other utilities, restrictive governmental laws or regulations, riots, insurrection, wars, inclement weather, fire or other casualty, acts of god, acts or threats of terrorism, global health emergencies, pandemics, epidemics and/or actual or anticipated public health crises (each a “Force Majeure Event”), then Holder remains obligated to pay all sums due under these Terms but the Buccaneers will credit Holder’s Season Pass account for the Face Value of such Affected Game. Any credit hereunder shall be applied towards the payment of season or single game tickets for the immediately succeeding NFL season. Any unused credit will expire after that immediately succeeding NFL season and shall be forfeited. If any portion of a Tampa Bay Buccaneers home game is played and subsequently cancelled, such game will be deemed completed for the purposes of these Terms and no refunds or credits will be given.
Other Terms: Ticket sales are subject to a surcharge imposed by the Tampa Sports Authority; if the Buccaneers determine an adjustment to the surcharge is required, it will be provided within sixty (60) days of the determination date. The Buccaneers may charge a $25 fee for any returned, unpaid, or unprocessed check, electronic debit, or similar payment instrument.
BY PURCHASING A SEASON PASS, HOLDER WAIVES AND DISCHARGES, AND RELEASES AND HOLDS HARMLESS, MANAGEMENT AND THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS RELATING IN ANY WAY TO PRIOR SEASON PASSES OR OTHER TICKET OR HOSPITALITY PURCHASES AND ANY PURPORTED RIGHTS HOLDER MAY ASSERT IN CONNECTION THEREWITH.
EACH TIME A HOLDER OR HOLDER’S RELATED PERSON ENTERS THE STADIUM AND RELATED STADIUM GROUNDS (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, PARKING AREAS AND ENTRY GATES), PURSUANT TO A SEASON PASS, IT SHALL BE CONSTRUED AS A SEPARATE AGREEMENT TO THE SEASON PASS TICKET TERMS EXISTING ON THAT DATE.
ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP PLAN: THE BELOW TERMS APPLY TO SEASON PASS HOLDERS ENROLLED IN THE ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP PLAN, WHICH INCLUDES AN AUTOMATIC RENEWAL FEATURE. ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP PLAN PAYMENTS WILL CONTINUE UNTIL YOU OPT-OUT OF THE PLAN IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS HEREIN.YOU MAY OPT OUT BEFORE THE FINAL PAYMENT DUE DATE OF THE CURRENT PLAN YEAR (IN WHICH CASE NO ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP PLAN PAYMENTS FOR THE SUBSEQUENT PLAN YEAR WILL COME DUE).
The Annual Membership Plan spreads season pass payments over monthly installments (interest free) prior to the start of the applicable season. If Holder enrolled in the Annual Membership Plan, Holder agrees that the Buccaneers may, in its sole discretion, automatically renew Holder’s Season Pass and Holder’s agreement to participate in the Annual Membership Plan (in accordance with the Terms herein). The Buccaneers have the sole discretion to set renewal terms and conditions, including at higher prices, on different terms and conditions, or for different seat locations.
In these Terms, "Plan Year" means the period that begins the date when the first payment specified in a season's invoice is due and ends the date when the last payment specified in the same season's invoice is due. The initial Plan Year will begin upon Holder’s enrollment in the Annual Membership Plan and will also end the date when the last payment specified in that season's invoice is due.
Once enrolled in the Annual Membership Plan, Holder agrees that Holder may cancel the Annual Membership Plan, and not be subject to automatic renewal, only as follows.
- TO PREVENT AUTO RENEWAL OF YOUR ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP PLAN FOR THE SUBSEQUENT PLAN YEAR, HOLDER MUST PROVIDE WRITTEN NOTICE AT ANY TIME BEFORE THE FINAL PAYMENT DATE OF THE CURRENT PLAN YEAR IS DUE. If Holder timely does this, no payments for the subsequent Plan Year will come due. After this date, you may not cancel your Annual Membership Plan for the subsequent Plan Year (subject to the price increase exception below). Written notice must be submitted in full using the form at https://www.buccaneers.com/annualmembershipoptoutor by emailing Holder’s Guest and Member Relations Representative, which time a confirmation email, or an email indicating that your account remains active for failure to comply with the Terms herein will be sent to your email listed on Account Manager. (For example, if the final Annual Membership payment for the 2024 Plan Year is due July 15, 2024, written notice must be received on or before July 15, 2024 to cancel your Annual Membership for the 2025 Plan Year).
- If the Buccaneers increase the price of Holder’s Annual Membership by more than 7.5% from one Plan Year to the next Plan Year, any relocated or unplayed game credit/refund, parking, taxes and other fees), Holder may cancel Holder’s Annual Membership by sending written notice to the Buccaneers no later than twenty‐one (21) calendar days after the Notification (as defined below) of such increase is sent by the Buccaneers.
The Buccaneers set Annual Membership prices annually. The initial disclosure of payments due on the Annual Membership Plan is based on the prior Plan Year price, which is subject to increase by the Buccaneers in its sole discretion. Once the Annual Membership price is finalized, the Buccaneers will notify Holder of the final payment schedule and pricing through a new invoice, email, or other written communication (any of which shall constitute "Notification"). If prices are revised, a new payment schedule with the revised monthly payments will be established for the remaining payments. The new monthly payment amount will be determined by subtracting the amount already paid for the upcoming Season from the new Plan Year price, and dividing the resulting amount by the number of remaining payments. Holder shall have the right to make advance payments for the Annual Membership Plan or make payment in full (subject to finalized pricing) prior to the scheduled due dates. If Holder fails to make a monthly payment due under the Annual Membership Plan, such outstanding balance shall remain due and will be added to the following month’s invoice.
In the event Holder cancels the Annual Membership in accordance with these Terms (timely notice exception or price increase exception as stated in Subsections 1 and 2 above), Holder can either (1) use the amount already paid (if any) as a credit to purchase single game or group tickets to Buccaneers home games during the upcoming NFL season, or (2) receive a full refund of all amounts already paid (if any). Refunds will not be issued until thirty (30) days after the twenty-one (21) calendar day notice period (described in Subsection 2 above) expires. Written notice must be submitted in full using the form at https://www.buccaneers.com/annualmembershipoptout at which time a confirmation email, or an email indicating that your Annual Membership Plan remains active for failure to comply with the Ticket Terms will be sent to your email listed on Account Manager. Account Credit will be deemed selected unless Holder provides written notice to the Buccaneers of Holder’s desire to receive a refund, which must include the Holder’s name, account ID #, zip code, email address, and election of refund, which shall be sent via email (with delivery receipt required) to [email protected].
Holder understands that enrollment in the Annual Membership Plan does not constitute a guaranty that the Buccaneers will offer the opportunity to purchase Season Passes for any given season and is subject to the good standing of Holder’s account associated with the Season Passes. The Buccaneers reserve the right to modify or cancel the Annual Membership Plan at any time and require payment for the Season Pass by some other means. Holder agrees that the Buccaneers may send notices and invoices related to the Annual Membership Plan to the email listed on Account Manager, and Holder agrees to promptly notify the Buccaneers of any updated email address that should be used to contact Holder.
The Buccaneers have no obligation to resell Holder’s seat(s) in the event of the termination of the Annual Membership Plan (unless Holder had the right to cancel as set forth above). If the Buccaneers do resell Holder’s seat(s), Holder will remain liable to the Buccaneers to the extent permitted by law for the balance due under the then-current invoice as well as any collections costs incurred by the Buccaneers.
All renewals are subject to these Terms until or unless new terms are issued. If any provision contained in these Terms conflicts with any provision of the new terms, the provision contained in the new terms will govern and control.
