Schedule

Auction Arena Seating

Floor, skybox and Muscle Lounge seating is reserved for bidders, consignors and appropriately credentialed guests. Limited arena seating is available (but not guaranteed) to those with general admission tickets. It is important to remember that—unlike at a concert or sporting event—spectators come and go from the auction arena throughout the day, so seats open up regularly; be sure to check back if you can’t find a seat when you first enter the arena.

Tickets

General admission tickets are available for purchase online (and on-site at the AXS box office). Please note that purchase of a general admission ticket does not guarantee seating in the auction arena. Plenty of seating areas are available adjacent to the auction arena with big screens to view the action in the arena.

Student Tickets

General admission tickets for students ages 13 through college-age are $10.

Complimentary Tickets for Children 12 and Under

Children 12 years of age and younger receive free admission at the door with a ticketed adult.

Dodge Thrill Rides on the Barrett-Jackson Performance Track

This exciting experience is available daily for guests age 8 (or 48” tall) and above. Ride with a pro in the latest Dodge vehicles for an unforgettable experience!

Rain or shine, the action doesn’t stop

The majority of the auction site is covered and climate-controlled with the exception of walking to and from each event pavilion.

TV crews will be on-site

TV crews from A+E’s FYI and HISTORY will provide live coverage daily. Tell your friends—they might see you on TV!

There’s more here than just great cars

The auctions feature a vast Exhibitor Marketplace, sponsor displays, food and drink options, and great people-watching—keep an eye out for celebrities!
