Friday is the Deadline to Claim Your Commencement Tickets!

Graduating seniors, don’t forget to claim and transfer your Commencement guest tickets by Friday!

Seniors in the Class of 2023: We can’t wait to celebrate Commencement with you and your loved ones next weekend. This is a reminder that Friday, May 19, is the deadline to claim guest tickets for Commencement and Baccalaureate. After claiming tickets, please remember to transfer those tickets to your guests on Ticketmaster, so that they can successfully enter the venues for each ceremony.
Also, please remember to attend the mandatory Commencement rehearsal on Friday, May 26, at 11 a.m. Meet on the north side of Ed Robson Arena. All graduates are required to attend rehearsal in order to walk in Sunday’s ceremony. You do not need to wear your regalia (cap and gown) to rehearsal, but you must pick up your cap and gown from the CC Bookstore by 3 p.m. that Friday, May 26.
Stick around after the Commencement rehearsal for an optional Senior BBQ hosted by the annual giving and alumni offices! Enjoy lunch from 12:15-1:30 p.m. on the concourse level of Ed Robson Arena.

Ticket Details


As a reminder, graduates can claim up to seven guest tickets (five seated, two standing room) for Commencement, and up to two guest tickets for Baccalaureate in Shove Chapel (with overflow tickets in Kathryn Mohrman Theatre) at am.ticketmaster.com/coloradocollege. After claiming tickets, follow these instructions to transfer them to your guests:

Instructions for graduates to transfer tickets:

  1. Log in with your CC email address to the CC Ticketmaster website: ticketmaster.com/coloradocollege
  2. Click on the “My Events” tab.
  3. Click the “Transfer” button.
  4. Enter the email address of the person(s) to receive tickets.

After you transfer tickets, your guests must complete the following steps:

  1. Guests will receive an email from Ticketmaster notifying them of the transferred tickets.
  2. They must then click on the “Claim Tickets” button.
  3. Guests will need to create an account on the CC Ticketmaster website (ticketmaster.com/coloradocollege; link also included in transfer email).
  4. After creating an account, guests will be able to visit ticketmaster.com/coloradocollege from their phones and pull up the bar code, which is required for entry into Shove Chapel and Ed Robson Arena for the ceremonies. Please do not use the main Ticketmaster phone app, as CC Ticketmaster is a different system.

A few final notes:

  • One guest may hold tickets for multiple people, as long as they enter the venue at the same time. However, only the individuals to whom you directly transferred tickets will receive next week’s important “Know Before You Go” message, which is specific to Ed Robson Arena.
  • Students must claim their needed number of guest tickets in one transaction on Ticketmaster (you cannot go back and claim more tickets at a later time).
  • There is no waitlist for students and families who wish to claim more than the allotted number of free guest tickets. Instead, please connect with other students who do not plan to use all of their allotted tickets, and ask them to directly transfer their extra tickets to you or your guests via Ticketmaster.

Remember to visit coloradocollege.edu/commencement for all Commencement weekend details, including a complete schedule of events, parking and venue information, and more.
