Timbers Army Gate E & Wristband FAQ for 2020 Season
Due to the high demand for the best seats in the Timbers Army and our desire to provide a fair and consistent early entry procedure, we will be once again using a system of wristbands to help facilitate early entry at Gate E for Timbers Army fans at Providence Park. Wristbands are not handed out for Concacaf Champions League, Leagues Cup or U.S. Open Cup matches.
2020 Timbers Army Wristband Policies
- Timbers Army Early Entry via Gate E will be at 90 minutes, while all other public gates (B, C, D and F) will be at 75 minutes.
- We will evaluate rivalry and other matches and may extend the ingress and early entry for for those matches.
- The wristband line will form southbound from Gate C on SW 18th Avenue.
- Those with Timbers Army tickets may continue to line up 24 hours before the announced kick for wristbands.
- Tents and other enclosed items designed to shelter more than one person will continue to be prohibited.
- We will continue to stagger the wristband release times, but never prior to 7:00 AM on a matchday.
- Early Entry Wristbands are capped at 500 per match and may increase for Rivalry matches.
These policies may be amended during the season as needed and several exceptions may be added for rivalry matches or unique scheduling dynamics. When there are events during the day or evening prior to a Timbers match, queuing will not be allowed until after the completion of that event. View full policy here.
