Waste Management Phoenix Open 2024 Tickets Overview
TPC Scottsdale’s Stadium Course is most famous for its iconic par-3 16th hole, also known as “The Coliseum” thanks to the 20,000-seater grandstand that surrounds it. Fans with General Admission tickets can enter it – along with several other grandstands around the course – on a first-come, first-served basis, and there are also a wide range of hospitality options overlooking this and other key holes, from the Skybox 16 in the Coliseum to the Greenskeeper terraces along the 18th fairway.

When Do Phoenix Open Tickets Go on Sale?
With so many ticket options available, demand is high at this incredibly popular event. As such, tickets typically go on sale much further in advance compared with most golf tournaments. Held in February each year, tickets usually begin to go on sale in the preceding May or June and are available for around 9 months. Hospitality can often sell out relatively early, but General Admission may still be available until tournament week, although it has been known for Friday and Saturday to sell out in advance.

Admission into the Phoenix Open is free to all spectators on Monday and Tuesday as the PGA Tour pros head out for their practice rounds. Otherwise, General Admission costs $62 on Wednesday, Thursday, and Sunday, or $87 on Friday and Saturday, while hospitality can range from around $350 to 10s of thousands of dollars depending on the length of the package and how many people it is for. In both cases, resale prices may vary considerably.

FAQs
What are the best seats at the Waste Management Phoenix Open?
Ultimately, it depends on what kind of experience you’re after. Many fans will be perfectly content with General Admission tickets; they can soak up the atmosphere, follow their favourite players, or access one of the many public grandstands available, including in The Coliseum (please note, there are around 3,750 general admission seats in The Coliseum available on a first-come, first-served basis so early arrival is recommended). If you want to spend your day in The Coliseum on the lookout for holes-in-one but you’d rather do it in luxury then you might want to consider Skybox 16, while if you’re most excited for all the final-hole drama then Greenskeeper or E18hteen might be just the ticket.
