Season ticket holder privileges may only be transferred one time to a spouse or child. K Fund priority points and rankings are non-transferable. Please contact the UK Ticket Office at (800) 928-2287 (Option 4) for information on how to transfer your season tickets.

Infant Tickets

Men’s Basketball- Everyone, regardless of age, must have a ticket for admission to all home games.

Football-Fans wishing to bring infants (12 months and under) to a Kentucky football game at Kroger Field may purchase a lap ticket at a discounted rate of $10. This ticket will allow the infant to enter the venue, but that infant must sit on their parent/guardian’s lap. If a seat must be occupied by the infant and/or carrier, a regular ticket must be purchased. Lap tickets are only available on game day and may be purchased at the Kroger Field ticket office (between Gates 9 & 10) for $10, when accompanied by an adult with a ticket. This lap ticket policy only applies to regular-season home football contests.

All Other Sports– Children 5 years or younger are free in the general admission areas only.
