Location & Transportation

Driving and Parking: Driving is the most practical option for most attendees. On-site and adjacent parking is available at the Holiday Park complex, and lots can fill closer to event start times. Arriving early gives you more time to park, enter, and get settled before the show, game, or event begins.

Transit: Broward County Transit bus service operates throughout the area, while Brightline’s Fort Lauderdale station and the Tri-Rail system serve the broader city. Transit can be useful depending on where you are coming from, though many guests will find the venue easiest to reach by car.

Rideshare: Uber and Lyft serve the venue, and drop-off and pickup are straightforward because the venue sits outside the densest part of downtown. Brief waits can happen after events as guests leave at the same time.

How Much Do Tickets to FTL War Memorial Auditorium Cost?

FTL War Memorial Auditorium ticket prices vary widely depending on the type of event, the artist or act, seating section, and demand — which is what you'd expect from a venue that hosts everything from standard concert dates to high-demand touring acts.

For standard concerts and smaller shows, tickets can start around $36. Rear and side seating sections are often among the more affordable options, while closer center sections can cost more depending on demand.

For high-demand concerts and premium seating locations, prices can rise into the mid-range and reach several hundred dollars or more. Artist popularity, event type, seat location, day of week, and overall demand all affect pricing.

Getting Ready for Your FTL War Memorial Auditorium Event

Once your tickets are confirmed, a few practical steps make your visit run significantly smoother — especially at a multi-use complex near Holiday Park where concerts, skating, hockey, and community events can bring guests to different areas of the venue.

• Download your tickets before you leave. Save your tickets to your phone's wallet or screenshot them before departing so you're ready at the entrance without needing a signal.
• Charge your phone fully. Digital ticketing is standard, and your phone is your entry. A portable battery pack is worth having for a full evening.
• Arrive early. Parking lots at the Holiday Park complex can fill closer to event start, so giving yourself extra time helps with parking, entry, and security.
• Dress warmly for ice-rink events. Rink-side areas run cold, so layers are a smart choice if you are attending skating or hockey programming at Baptist Health IcePlex.
• Know your entrance. A quick look at your event details before arrival helps you head directly to the auditorium entrances or IcePlex access within the complex.
• Check the bag policy in advance. Reviewing the venue's guidelines before packing prevents delays at security.
