CrossFit Games Public Tickets On Sale March 24; Affiliate and Open Presales

Barbell Spin reported on March 5, 2026 that general public tickets for the 2026 CrossFit Games at San Jose’s SAP Center will go on sale March 24, 2026, and that pre-sale opportunities are expected before the public on-sale. The Barbell Spin item is the first clear date available for 2026; CrossFit has not posted a 2026 ticketing release in the excerpts supplied here.

CrossFit’s ticketing infrastructure has historically run through Ticketmaster and used affiliate presales and passcodes. The Games.CrossFit.com copy from the 2022 NOBULL CrossFit Games spells out the mechanics that affiliates used: “The affiliate ticket presale for the 2022 NOBULL CrossFit Games will begin Thursday, March 24, 2022, and last until Sunday, March 27, 2022.” In 2022, affiliates that had 12 or more athletes sign up for the Open qualified for early access and could purchase up to eight Festival + Coliseum Packages plus an unlimited number of Festival-Only Packages.

If CrossFit repeats the 2022 approach, affiliate managers will find their access codes on their Games.CrossFit.com accounts: “Affiliate managers should sign into their account at Games.CrossFit.com and check their competition dashboard page to find their unique code. Codes will be displayed beginning Tuesday, March 15, 2022.” The site text also includes operational notes that affect purchases: “Note: Codes are case-sensitive and can be used in more than one transaction. If displayed in all caps, please enter as shown.” The site further states that “Anyone can use the code. Affiliate managers who are not interested in purchasing tickets can hand the code off to another member at the gym or a friend halfway around the world. There are no restrictions on who can use the code; it’s entirely up to the affiliate manager.”

Camping and campground sales were handled through Ticketmaster in 2022; CrossFit’s 2022 language describes the CrossFit Campground options and seat-map mechanics in detail. For 2022 the copy states the campground offered RV, tent, and Camping Rx’d options and that previous campers could buy and select a spot beginning Tuesday, March 15, 2022, with camping on sale to the general public Thursday, March 17, 2022. The site warns purchasers: “When you purchase your camping pass via Ticketmaster, you will select your own spot using the interactive seat map. Spots are first come, first served. Spots cannot be changed once selected. Once a spot is gone, it’s gone. Note: map is not drawn to scale. Exact locations are subject to change.”

What’s missing for 2026: the Barbell Spin excerpt names March 24, 2026 for the public on-sale and notes pre-sales but does not provide 2026 presale windows, pricing, seat maps, or camping confirmation for SAP Center. For ticketing help CrossFit’s 2022 copy directs people to support@crossfitgames.com for passcode problems and to Ticketmaster at 1-800-653-8000 for order issues: “If you are having trouble accessing your passcode, please contact support@crossfitgames.com. If you have trouble processing your ticket order, please contact Ticketmaster at 1-800-653-8000, or check out Ticketmaster’s customer service FAQ.”

Plan accordingly: treat March 24, 2026 as the working public on-sale date reported by Barbell Spin and use the CrossFit/Ticketmaster contacts above to confirm presale windows, code-display timing, package limits, camping availability, pricing and seat maps for the SAP Center event. If CrossFit reuses the 2022 playbook, affiliate managers who met the 12-athlete Open threshold will want to monitor their Games.CrossFit.com competition dashboard closely for any presale codes.
