Except in the case of early morning showtimes and Louisville Athletics events, the ticket office will open at 10 AM for events on Monday-Saturday and at noon for Sunday events. The ticket office will open one hour before each Louisville Athletics event. The ticket office will remain open until after the show begins on event days.

Ticketmaster & Mobile Entry

The KFC Yum! Center’s Official Ticketing Service Provider is Ticketmaster.

Visit the Ticketmaster Help Center for more assistance with your Ticketmaster tickets.

Please have your ticket downloaded prior to arriving at the KFC Yum! Center to prevent entry delays. Note: If mobile entry isn’t available for your event, you’ll see a “This is not your ticket” message and your method of delivery.

AXS Ticketing & Mobile ID

Some events may use AXS ticketing and tickets will not be available on ticketmaster.com.

Accessing Your AXS Tickets: AXS Mobile ID is a digital ticket you use with your phone. This revolving QR code resets every 60 seconds to ensure the most secure ticketing experience for fans.

Do I need the AXS app to access my tickets? 
Yes. Their patented AXS Mobile ID is the most secure form of ticketing on the market and ensures our fans have a trusted experience. Because of its unique design, the AXS Mobile ID cannot be sent through a standard email, so they use the AXS App to host this technology.

The AXS app can be downloaded from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. 

How can I see my AXS Mobile ID?
After you log into the AXS app, you can pull up your AXS Mobile ID in a few different ways. Tapping the ticket icon in the bottom menu will automatically pull up your AXS Mobile ID or show you a list of your upcoming events which you can select individually. You can also tap the middle icon in the bottom menu to view your AXS Mobile ID.

Visit AXS FAQs or contact the AXS Help Center for any other questions.
