Kentucky Football vs. Alabama Officially Sold Out
LEXINGTON, Ky. — Saturday’s Kentucky football game vs. Alabama is officially sold out.
The nationally televised matchup is scheduled to kick off at 3:30 p.m. ET on ABC.
While the game is sold out, verified resale tickets remain available through the Ticketmaster official UK resale marketplace.
Ticket Safety & Security
Fans should exercise caution against counterfeit and invalid tickets. That risk is magnified for sold-out games like Saturday’s.
Only tickets purchased directly through the following official outlets are guaranteed to be valid:
- UK Ticket Office
- Ticketmaster, including Ticketmaster’s official UK resale marketplace
- FEVO
- Visiting team ticket office
UK Athletics cautions fans considering purchasing tickets through other outlets that may be unable to provide this assurance.
UK Athletics strives to provide fans with a ticketing experience that is convenient, safe and secure. To help combat ticket fraud and counterfeiting, PDF and print-at-home tickets are not accepted at UK Athletics venues and are not sold by any UK Athletics authorized seller.
Ticketmaster is the official and authorized resale marketplace for UK Athletics, utilizing barcode verification technology to help ensure ticket authenticity. Verified resale tickets for Saturday’s game may be purchased at UKAthletics.com/fb26.
Ticket holders should also be aware of the risks associated with posting ticket images online. Fans are encouraged to cover barcodes and QR codes when sharing ticket photos on social media and avoid exposing personal information associated with their tickets.
For more information regarding ticket security, contact the UK Ticket Office at (800) 928-2287 (Option 4).
Sold-out games often attract scammers who attempt to sell counterfeit, invalid or non-existent tickets. Fraudulent sellers may request payment through peer-to-peer payment apps or other methods that make it difficult to recover funds if tickets are never delivered.
How to Protect Yourself
Before purchasing tickets from an individual or third-party seller, consider the following tips:
- Be skeptical of prices that seem too good to be true.
- Verify the seller whenever possible.
- Avoid sending payment through methods that do not offer buyer protections.
- Be cautious if a seller pressures you to act immediately.
- Watch for inconsistencies in messages, screenshots or ticket information.
- Use official ticketing platforms
If You Believe You’ve Been Scammed
If you believe you have been the victim of a ticket scam or fraudulent ticket sale, report the incident to the University of Kentucky Police Department as soon as possible at 859-257-8573. Fans are encouraged to save screenshots, payment records and message history, which may assist investigators.
Awareness remains one of the most effective ways to prevent ticket fraud. Fans are encouraged to purchase tickets through official sources and share scam warnings with friends and family attending the game.
