Starting August 21st, enter Citizens Bank Park hands-free with our new MLB Go-Ahead Entry Lane at the First Base Gate. Go-Ahead Entry combines a free-flow security screening technology with facial authentication resulting in fast and easy entry into the park. Fans 18+ can register using the MLB Ballpark app and all tickets tied to their account will be eligible for Go-Ahead Entry.
Phillies fans who opt in for ‘Go-Ahead Entry’ can scan their face to use as a ticket beginning Monday
“This enables an ‘eyes up’ experience,” said Karri Zaremba, MLB senior vice president for ballpark experience and ticketing. “They don't have to get out a phone or even stop. It's a free-flow, full walking speed experience.”
Zaremba says fans’ photos are linked with a numerical token connected to their account, and then deleted. "We don't store any images of fans on file. It's completely secure,” she explained.
