    When do spectator tickets to UDA DII high school nationals January 30-February 1, 2026 at ESPN sports complex go on sale -

    Hiya Dana,

    Welcome to planDisney! I’m not sure who you'll be supporting at the upcoming DII National School Spirit Championships, but I’m sending them my best wishes and all the luck. I’ve been to one of the collegiate dance competitions at ESPN Wide World of Sports, and as a former ballerina, I loved watching these incredible athletes showcase all their hard work! It was an incredible experience!

    Great news, Dana: tickets for the National School Spirit Championships are on sale now for next week’s competition! Since this event is ticketed separately, your tickets will not be purchased through ESPN Wide World of Sports or its website. To purchase tickets, you must do so through Varsity Sports. To do so, on the ESPN Wide World of Sports event page, scroll to find the event in January. Then navigate to the National School Spirit event webpage by clicking “Learn More.” Once there, scroll until you see “DII Spectator Registration” to find the additional details and instructions to purchase your spectator tickets in advance.

    I hope this was helpful, Dana. Before I let you go, I wanted to remind you that you can bring in outside food and non-alcoholic drinks (in non-glass bottles) to ESPN Wide World of Sports. While they do have concession stands and the ESPN Wide World of Sports Grill on site, in my experience, those can be extremely popular during peak meal times. I always brought my own food so I could save a little time waiting in line and not miss a minute of the performances. Again, good luck to your athlete, and please come back and see us if you need anything else.

    Happy Planning,

    Ashley F.
