As Citizens Bank Park prepares to open its doors for its 15th season come the Philadelphia Phillies' home opener on Thursday, April 5, the club will bring back this season some very affordable ticket offers through its Spring and Fall Ballpark passes.
The spring pass will provide access "to every Phillies regular season home game in the month of April" except Opening Day, or 15 games, for $50. Likewise, the fall pass will offer access to each of the Phillies' 14 home games in September at the same cost.
The passes will allow fans to "enjoy the ultimate flexibility, the convenience of digital ticketing and the excitement of Phillies baseball," notes the club's website.
Seating locations for both passes will vary game to game, but will only include the following sections: Terrace, Terrace Deck, Pavilion, Pavilion Deck, and Outfield. Pass tickets will be delivered digitally through the "MLB Ballpark" smartphone app. The tickets will first read as "Standing Room Only" on the app up until 60 minutes before first pitch. A text message will then be sent to fans' mobile devices detailing the assigned seat location for that game.
The spring and fall passes combined value totals 29 games for $100, or $3.45 per game. Each transaction allows for a maximum of six passes purchased, guaranteeing the seats will be next to each other.
