Spectating

Spectators are allowed! We plan to open our doors for spectators at 10:00 a.m. We will charge $10.00 for all-day access for all spectators over the age of 4.

Robot combat is an inherently dangerous sport. We take great care to make our events as safe as possible for spectators and competitors but accidents can happen and injury is possible. We may ask you to sign a release prior to entering the space acknowledging these risks.

Here's some of the things you can get as a spectator:

  • Food trucks in the parking lot.
  • Onsite concessions.
  • Competitor and official NHRL merchandise for sale.
  • Time to hang out with the competitors post-fight.
