Can I reserve a chairback seat for friends or family if they don’t have season tickets? If I reserve a chairback seat, does that get me into the games?
- No, chairbacks are only available as an optional add-on to your season tickets. At the time of your purchase, you must enter your Season Ticket Order Confirmation Number, and we will match those transactions to ensure that only season ticket holders have chairbacks. Any chairback purchases for non-season ticket holders will be voided and are non-refundable.
Who can reserve a chairback seat?
- Only 2025 Lionsbridge FC season ticket holders are eligible to reserve a blue chairback seat, guaranteeing a dedicated, comfortable spot for every game.

- Each season ticket purchased unlocks the option to reserve one chairback seat for the entire season (e.g., one season ticket means the opportunity to reserve one chairback, two season tickets mean the opportunity to reserve two seats).
- Have your season ticket order confirmation number ready; you’ll need it at checkout.
What if I don’t reserve a chairback seat?
- No problem—this offer is optional! Your season ticket still grants you general admission access to sit anywhere in the metal bleachers or enjoy the Festival Area.
How do I prove that I have a reserved chairback seat?
- Keep a copy of your purchase confirmation on your phone (email, Apple Wallet, or Google Wallet). Uniformed RMC event personnel will be stationed in the chairback sections (E, F and G) throughout the game to assist you.
What happens if I buy a season ticket after the initial reservation period? Can I still reserve a chairback seat?
- Yes, absolutely! However, keep in mind that many chairback seat locations will already have been reserved. Availability is limited.
Can I switch my reserved chairback seat if I change my mind later?
- No, unfortunately, reserved chairback seats are non-refundable, and the location cannot be changed after purchase.
Are the chairback seats located in the same area as the bleachers?
- There are two distinct areas of the TowneBank Stadium grandstand: One is the blue chairback seats at midfield (sections E, F, and G). The other is the metal bleachers (sections A, B, C, D, H, I, J, and K).
Are there any additional fees associated with reserving a chairback seat?
- Yes, Newport News’ 10% admission tax will also apply.
What if I can’t attend a game? Can I transfer my reserved chairback seat to someone else?

What if the chairback sections sell out? Will there be a waitlist?
- Section F (the middle section) will go on sale first. Once that section is reserved, we’ll open up Section E. After Section E is filled, we’ll then open Section G. If Section G fills, we will be sold out of chairbacks.
How will I know which chairback seats are available for reservation?
- When you go onto the website to make your purchase, it will require you to select chairback seat locations from the seating map. Available chairbacks will be marked with a blue dot, while the unavailable seats will be marked with a black X.
