So, I heard the rumble – WWE was planning a stop in Bakersfield for 2024. Right away, I knew I wanted to be there. Seeing it live is just a totally different experience, you know?
Finding the Details
First thing I did was try to figure out the actual date and when tickets would even go on sale. I started checking the usual spots online. Went straight to the main WWE site, looked through their event schedule. Also popped over to the Mechanics Bank Arena website, since that’s the venue. They usually list upcoming events pretty early.
Found the date eventually. Then it was about the sale date. Saw there was a presale thing, often happens. I signed up for the arena’s newsletter and any WWE alerts I could find, hoping to get a heads-up or maybe even a presale code. Didn’t want to miss out.
Getting Ready for the Sale
Once the sale date was announced, I put it straight into my calendar. Made a couple of reminders too, just in case. Here’s what I did to prep:
- Decided on seats: I looked at the arena map beforehand. Had a general idea of the section I wanted and what my budget was. No point figuring that out when the clock is ticking.
- Account check: I logged into the ticket selling website (you know the one) a day before. Made sure my password worked and my payment info was up to date. Saves precious seconds later.
- Set an alarm: Planned to be at my computer maybe 15-20 minutes before the official sale time.
The Actual Purchase
Sale day arrived. Got my coffee, sat down, and logged in early as planned. Got put into that virtual waiting room thing almost immediately. It’s always a bit nerve-wracking just staring at that little walking man icon.
Finally, it was my turn. The site was a bit sluggish, which honestly, I kind of expected. Happens with popular events. I quickly navigated to the WWE event page, found the section I was aiming for. Some seats were already gone, wow, they go fast!
Managed to grab a couple of tickets in a decent spot. Added them to my cart. My heart was pounding a bit, trying to click through before they timed out or something glitched.
Got to the checkout page. Since I’d updated my info beforehand, it was mostly just confirming everything. Double-checked the date, time, seat numbers, and price. Hit the final purchase button.
Success!
And then… confirmation! Got the confirmation screen, and almost immediately, the email popped into my inbox. Phew. That’s always a relief.
So yeah, tickets secured for WWE in Bakersfield 2024. Just gotta wait for the day now. Really looking forward to the energy of the crowd and seeing the superstars up close. It was a bit of a process, but totally worth it when you finally get that confirmation.
