Ticket Fees

No additional fees are charged when purchasing tickets.

Cancellation and Refund Protection

Holiday Wonderland tickets are non-refundable. If your plans are uncertain, Ticketmaster offers the option to purchase ticket insurance during checkout. Review the coverage terms before adding protection, as not all cancellations or changes may be covered.

Parking

Holiday Wonderland takes place at Petco Park in downtown San Diego. Parking is available in the surrounding downtown area, but spaces can be in demand during busy holiday evenings and other events.

You can reserve parking near Petco Park in advance rather than searching for a space when you arrive.

Entry Windows and Arrival Times

When purchasing tickets, you’ll need to select both a date and an arrival time. Admission is staggered, with a limited number of guests assigned to each hourly entry window to help manage crowds.

Your group should arrive during the designated time on your ticket. Once inside, however, there is no fixed departure time. You can stay and enjoy the event for as long as you like, rather than having to leave after a set number of hours.

This makes your arrival time an important part of planning your visit. Allow enough time to park, walk to the entrance, and get through the admission process.

Entrance Gates

Holiday Wonderland visitors should use the Balboa Gate Entrance, located on the north side of Petco Park near J Street and 9th Avenue.

If you’re unfamiliar with the stadium, take a look at our Balboa Gate entrance guide and Holiday Wonderland map before heading downtown.

Promo Codes and Discounts

Looking for a Holiday Wonderland promo code? We hear you. Christmas isn’t cheap for families, and saving a few dollars on admission is always welcome.

Unfortunately, promo codes and substantial discounts are rare. We keep an eye out for available offers, so check our Holiday Wonderland promo codes and discounts page before purchasing.

A word of caution: Be careful with third-party coupon websites advertising supposedly exclusive Holiday Wonderland promo codes. Many list expired, unverified, or entirely made-up offers. Use the official Ticketmaster purchase link above to ensure you’re buying authentic tickets.

Pro tip: If your schedule allows, look at midweek dates in early December. These visits tend to offer two potential advantages: lower admission prices and a less crowded experience than peak weekend dates.
