    Hi! We are coming for the cheer competition and I purchased the two day park hopper tickets but not through Varsity. 🫣 I did it on the Disney site. Can I still get into the ESPN area to watch the competition?

    Cheers, Heidi! In just a few more days, the top cheerleading teams from across the nation will assemble at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex for the annual UCA National High School Cheerleading Championships! This exciting event combines the magic of Disney with friendly competition and show-stopping routines as teams take to the mat to showcase their talent and vie for the coveted title of National Champion! And how exciting that you'll be there to see all the magic unfold!

    Heidi, if you didn't purchase your theme park tickets through Varsity directly, hakuna matata (it means no worries!) you can still attend the competition by purchasing single-day admission tickets online. Please note that ticket sales are only online for this event; there will be no box office or onsite option to purchase tickets, so you will need to buy them before you head to the venue. Ticket sales will be available throughout the competition, so if your team advances and you need to purchase additional days, you can do so one day at a time! Once purchased, you will receive an email with your tickets which can be used to scan in, or you can link them to your My Disney Experience account and tap into the complex using a MagicBand or MagicMobile pass on your mobile device. 

    Heidi, I hope this helps! If you will be taking your own vehicle to the complex, parking is complimentary, or you can purchase platinum parking online to reserve parking ahead of time if you are interested. Remember there is no direct Disney Resort transportation to the competition venue unless you are traveling on one of the Varsity hotel packages, but rideshare services are welcome to drop you off at the venue as needed. If you have any other questions before you head to the championship, come back to planDisney anytime and let us know! We're here to cheer you on every step of the way!

    Go Team!
