CrossFit Games Tickets

Had seen other Crossfit Games on TV before and thought it would be great to see it live. Bought the one-day General Admission (GA) ticket for me and 3 others. Was exiting to see all those "fit" people, but very disappointing in that "General Admission" is a bit of a misnomer... All the sales info said that GA got you access to everything -- coliseum access as well -- except the night events. In reality, on Sunday, and according to the friendly Security folks, you had NO access to the coliseum where two of the final "professional" competitions were held, but, gosh, you could watch it outside on a large screen monitor -- sorry, not the same and very disappointing...

Wouldn't ever miss these games! Sad when it was over. Worth every penny!

I went on sunday and after i bought my tickets, they decided to restrict the collosium. I was able to see everything except the main events on sunday, which was a big let down.

It was advertised we could get into the coliseum during the day time for events, but that was not true. It was very disappointing that access to purchase coliseum tickets was extremely limited to the public and even more disappointing to hear from people inside the coliseum that there were plenty of empty seats. I enjoyed the teams and masters events that I did get to see outside.

The CrossFit Games were absolutely amazing! There was something always going on, regardless of it being the main athletes or not. They did a wonderful job with their sponsors as well as the Vendor Village. Next year I'm certainly going to pay the extra amount for the Coliseum ticket as well.

Great event. Would attend again! Great venue and lots of vendors and food choices.

CrossFit Games in 2017 in Madison was amazing. Fantastic events, great location, amazing performance.

Madison is a great new host. As long as you hotel is within the city, everything was convenient. I arrived a few days earlier so we were able to enjoy the various things the city has to offer! The various event areas and sections in the venue were so close together it was so easy to go from one event to the other and this allowed us to make the most of our experience the entire 4 days! Looking forward to the next year here again!

I hope the games will stay in Madison for longer than the foreseeable future. Had some light rain and cool weather to contend with but overall the event was amazing. The Crossfit teams did an excellent job and were incredibly organized with the set-up, take down and resetting of each event. Parking was a little rough, as I think they had more people show up than they expected. If you stayed until the end of each day you had to wait at least 30 minutes just to leave the lot. It also would have been cooler to give the top 10 athletes more of an introduction, but I understand the time constraints.

Great Event for the CrossFit Community. The vendor village was filled with companies educating and providing samples for the fans. The vendors were also selling product and had struggles with cc checkout process. This was probably due to the poor Internet and cellular connection. A few improvements: more than one coffee vendor. Less tables, more seating, more recycle and garbage bins in the beer tent. There was no where to fill water bottles. No drinking fountains. And not enough seating for outdoor events for when the elite athletes were performing.

This was my first time at the games and I could only make it for the last two days. It was a bit overcrowded but otherwise an amazing experience with great people and vendors. I'm already making plans for next year. These tickets were fine, but I think coliseum tickets would be even better.

Overall it was a fantastic expirence, the downsides were that there was almost no seating through the whole venue. There was maybe 100 seats in the beer garden but with thousands packed into the building. Also cell phones didn't work in the venue.

Go for the coliseum tickets if you're going to head all the way to Madison. Festival admission means paying $100 basically to shop overpriced apparel, hang in a super crowded "beer garden" with little seating, and scramble to check out a few outdoor events. We ended up selling on Craigslist and heading home early.

This was my 4th time to watch the games. Madison Wisconsin did a great job and love being close to home.

This was a fantastic event! I love CrossFit so it's an easy event to attend but it was well organized and the action was great. Bring your wallet if you attend as there are lots of vendors!! In addition to the athletes, there were a ton of activities going on all over the festival grounds. I highly recommend attending.

so happy that Games were held in MadCity; I could drive from Chicago area! We're big fans of the Games and had planned to attend in SoCal this year. Events were extremely well organized...like clockwork...almost military precision. Clean (even bathrooms, which always take a serious hit during big events like this!). No overflowing trash. Well-behaved crowds. Good parking availability. My only significant disappointment was that I did not get to see more of the events at North Park...not enough stadium seating by a LONG shot...particularly for the marquee events! Large screen tvs helped us keep up with the action, but not the same as seeing it live (which is why we decided to attend the Games in the first place). From what I could see, twice as much stadium seating could have been filled. Also as a mom, really thrilled to see young women looking SO poised and strong!

What an experience ......... it's a must ! I purchased the Madison Club passes which made the trip that much better! Met so many amazing people!

I hope CrossFit learns from their first year in Madison and sets up a better fan experience for next year. A huge disappointment was the miss representation of the General Admission Festival Pass tickets. They were marketed as access to all events except the nightly show. We were never allowed in the Coliseum at the 12 noon opening or anytime after. If you don't have Coliseum tickest you will not see anything inside other than teens or masters in the early morning. Seating in the North Lot was inadequate, would guess half the spectators for the individual events were standing. Food vendors were not prepared for the volume, most were sold out of things early in the afternoon on Friday. Beer Garden, hear too over half the people standing. The Coliseum is way too small for the demand, sad they didn't pick a larger venue.

this year was awesome and fun. thank you crossfit for making this the easiest year to watch in Madison and online.

Madison is a very nice city with views, good food and nice people. The venue is very spread out and difficult to navigate because of the large number of people. In addition, the schedule also makes it difficult to watch your favorite events unless you only stay in the arena. Food options were scarce and the lines were long. However, watching the games was the most important part and that experience did not disappoint!
