Hi there! Thank you for your feedback. We understand how important it is to receive your tickets smoothly. As a ticket marketplace, our tickets are sourced directly from the primary market, which means some tickets may require additional steps to access them. Not all tickets are available for downloading to the wallet app, as many may be required to be scanned directly from the app or transfer link. This process is implemented by the venue as a security measure to help protect your tickets.

The parking I purchased was not represented as properly and the valet parking is not at the venue but a block away. I would not have purchased it if that was made more clear on the listing and the map showing the location.

We take transparency very seriously and can confirm that detailed parking information, including the full address and estimated distance, was provided in the notes section of the listing prior to purchase. We encourage customers to carefully review all the details in the listing before placing an order to ensure the parking options meet their needs.

Misleading Item. ZERO Help

Misleading Item and ZERO help from Vivid Seats.
The listing for a parking pass for an event listed the address of the venue and even showed the location of the event on the map. It was only in a note at the bottom that you had to scroll down and specifically click on did it say that the parking was off site and over 0.5 miles away. Did not realize until after the tickets were purchased. Tried to get a refund and they said there was nothing they could do even despite the very misleading post that misrepresented the location of the parking.

Would not recommend Vivid Seats to anyone

Thank you for your feedback. As a ticket marketplace, it is normal for the original seller's name to appear on the tickets. Rest assured, this does not affect your entry; as long as the barcodes are scanned at the event, you will be able to gain access without any issues.
