What If I Forget to Bring My Print-at-Home Tickets?

Modified on Mon, 25 Aug at 1:19 PM

Print-at-Home tickets are designed to be scanned on paper at the venue. If you don’t bring the printed copy, your barcode may not scan correctly — and the venue could deny entry.


Can I Just Show the Ticket on My Phone?

Print-at-Home tickets use a format meant for paper. Unlike mobile tickets, these barcodes often don’t scan properly from a screen. Many venues also enforce strict “paper only” policies for this delivery type.


What Happens If You Forget?

  • If the venue requires paper and you only have the PDF on your phone, entry may be refused.

  • Since the tickets were delivered as promised, refunds are not available in these cases.


Don’t Have a Printer? Here’s What You Can Do

  • Forward the PDF to a friend or family member who can print it.

  • Stop by a local copy/print shop (FedEx Office, UPS Store, Staples, etc.).

  • Ask your hotel or workplace — many offer guest or employee printing services.


Tips Before Heading to the Event

  • Print every page if your order includes multiple tickets.

  • Make sure the barcodes are clear and easy to scan.

  • Keep the paper flat and accessible when you arrive.
