Frederick Flying Cows Tickets
One of the best aspects of the Flying Cows is the affordable ticket prices. General admission tickets are $18 for Adults and $10 for Children.
This allows you to sit on any side of the court in the bleacher-type seating area. All of these general admission tickets are great and not far from the action.
You can also choose baseline and bench tickets. These are assigned seats in chairs right on the floor.
The bench seats can be on the home or away side and mostly cost $55 each.
There are also premium baseline seats, which are assigned and run $55. The game will be played right before you, and you’ll want to pay attention to stray balls and players!
Courtside seats also include access to the Hospitality Room on the 2nd floor (see below). Here, you can purchase alcoholic drinks and food.
The Flying Cows also have Full Season Ticket and Half-Season Ticket plans as well.
VIP Seats, Suites, and Hospitality Room
The Flying Cows also offers you the opportunity to purchase:
- Individual Seat VIP Suite Tickets
- VIP Group Suites
Individual Seat VIP Tickets are assigned seats on the second-floor balcony with a great view. These also give you access to the Hospitality Room, and in this case, you can bring alcoholic beverages back to your seat.
The VIP Group Suites consist of four suites with a capacity for 12 people and one XL suite with a capacity for 18. These suites have tables and standing-room views of the game. They also have the same hospitality suite access privileges. VIP Suites are great for events or corporate outings.
