WrestleMania Axxess Tips:
- Wear comfortable walking shoes and leave strollers at home as there is no stroller check. This year, WrestleMania Axxess is in an arena, which means a unique experience throughout the concourse, the arena floor and even the seats!
- If you don’t want to carry around coats or jackets, make sure to leave them in the car or at home, because there is not a coat check available.
- Bring a personal camera or camera phone. Although we will provide photographers at certain designated photo stations, you will want to take snapshots at areas beyond the photo stations.
- Autograph mats will be available for the Superstars to sign at the autograph stations, but if you want to bring a family-friendly item of your own, you can! But please remember that Superstars at autograph stations can only sign one item and cannot take posed photos.
- If you are driving to the event, the closest parking lot to the entrance is Lot 23, which is directly across from the IZOD Center box office and located between Gates A and D.
- If you are being dropped off and picked up, that can take place between Lots 27 and 28.
- If you arrive early, the lines to wait are outside, so be sure to plan for the weather.
- If you have purchased a VIP ticket, look for the VIP line near the entrance to the building. This will ensure you get your VIP wristband upon entry, which will tell you when to line up for your VIP experience. Remember, if you don’t arrive at your designated time at the lower-level Expo Hall (the starting point for the VIP experience), we unfortunately can’t guarantee your VIP experience.
- Bring everything you need with you as you enter the building, as re-entry is not permitted.
- Maps will be available at the information desk in the box-office lobby, or you can explore what is around every corner on your own.
- Accommodations for the autograph stations located in the seats will be indicated on the map.
- If you are unable to climb stairs or take escalators, there is an elevator in the box-office lobby that will take you up to the concourse and down to the arena floor.
- If you have tickets for multiple sessions in one day, we appreciate your cooperation with leaving the building at the end of each session, as our staff needs time to clean and reset all of the activities. The sooner everyone exits, the sooner we can reopen the doors!
Prohibited Items:
- Backpacks/large bags (BAGS LARGER THAN 11-by-17 inches OR SEALED PACKAGES are not allowed)
- iPads ARE allowed
- Cameras with detachable lenses, professional camera equipment or lenses longer than 12” in length
