Accessible seating and mobility help

A dedicated Mobility Assistance team helps guests to and from their seats using NRG Park wheelchairs, and event-day seat relocations may be available at the Guest Experience booth.

A North America eSIM puts you on T-Mobile or AT&T from US$5 — Apple Pay, Google Pay, or card — and keeps working across every host city if you follow your team deeper into the bracket.
