Tampere venue has limited capacity spectator areas, and by limiting the ticket holders, the organizers can provide the best possible event experience for the spectators and the players. There will be limited amount of tickets available in two categories: general access and VIP access. With general access ticket you can enjoy world-class disc golf on more than half of the holes, and the VIP access gives you access to all holes.
