Cardinals cancel 2020 season tickets because of pandemic

If fans are allowed to go to games this season, there will only be single-game sales and season ticket holders will have first dibs.

The NFL has canceled preseason games as part of the ramp-up to the start of the regular season due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It is yet unknown whether fans will be able to attend games in the regular season.

Because of this, the Arizona Cardinals has sent out a message to season ticket holders that all season tickets are being canceled for the season. If fans are able to attend, tickets will be sold on a single-game basis.

This is what the team communicated to season ticket holders:

You likely heard last Friday’s news that the NFL and the NFLPA agreed to cancel all 2020 preseason games. As for the regular season, it is not clear at this point how many spectators — if any — will be permitted to attende Cardinals home games in 2020. As such, all previous season ticket sales have been voided. All credits currently remain on account. 

We are working closely with the state of Arizona and know that any decision regarding spectators attending games will be made with extraordinary care and the highest regard for public health and safety. 

If local and state COVID-19 guidelines do permit spectators to attend Cardinals games — even with a reduced capacity — the first opportunity will go to season-ticket members like yourself. More information will be shared on this when it is available. 

Season ticket members that elect not to purchase tickets this year will retain all renewal rights and seniority for the 2021 season and DO NOT NEED TO CONTACT THE CARDINALS. Any prior payments made will remain on account and will be applied automatically to your 2021 pricing for the 2021 season. Accounts that prefer a refund of any or all of their payment can make that request by clicking the link below. . .

This is in line with what other teams around the NFL have communicated with their fans. The San Francisco 49ers issued a similar communication to their season ticket holders, as did the Seattle Seahawks.
