If someone wished to purchase tickets online and are planning on bringing a dog they must buy tickets in section AA or BB only. Unfortunately our ticketing system doesn’t block anyone with a dog from buying tickets in a different section but there will be a notice on the website explaining what sections are dog sections. If someone mistakenly buys tickets in a different section they will be moved over to one of the dog sections when they arrive. The tickets will get the owner and dog into the park.
