Registration for the Celebration

A reserved ticket and UC San Diego staff ID verification are required for event admission. This year, there will be two ticket types:

Admission Only

Includes admission to Staff Summer Celebration at RIMAC Field. This ticket does not include a lunch ticket. Staff are encouraged to bring their lunch, eat before arriving or simply stop by throughout the event to take part in the festivities.

Lunch + Admission

Includes admission to Staff Summer Celebration at RIMAC Field and a lunch ticket. Lunch tickets are limited, while supplies last.

Ticket registration* will be available on Tuesday, August 25, 2026, at 12 p.m. on the UC San Diego Events Calendar.

*Only UC San Diego email addresses may be used to register for a ticket. All orders reserved with a non-UC San Diego email will be canceled.

If for any reason you are no longer able to attend the event, please cancel your ticket to allow other staff the opportunity to participate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to bring my ticket?

 Yes! Bring a digital copy of your ticket to the event.

Do I need to bring my Staff ID?

Yes! All staff will be required to show a form of UC San Diego staff ID verification.

What do I do if tickets sell out and I am unable to secure a ticket?

A reserved ticket is required for event admission. If Admission Only tickets (does not include lunch) become available, they will be given out on a first-come, first-serve basis starting at 1:15 p.m. at the Will Call tent. There is no guarantee that tickets will become available.

No. All attendees must be UC San Diego employees.

What if I can no longer attend the event?

  • Option 1: Cancel your ticket.
  • Option 2: Transfer your ticket to another staff member. Send an email with your name, your colleague’s full name and colleague’s UC San Diego email address to sep2@ucsd.edu.

After registering for your ticket, a confirmation email will be sent to the email address you provided in the “Contact Information” section. To cancel your ticket, scroll to the bottom of the email and click “Need to cancel your ticket? Go to My Ticket.”

Why was my ticket voided?

Your ticket may be voided for the following reasons:
  1. You registered using a non-UC San Diego email address: Only UC San Diego email addresses may be used to register for a ticket. Any tickets reserved using a non-UC San Diego email address will be voided.
  2. You used your name multiple times to register for a ticket: Only one ticket may be reserved per person, all other duplicate entries will be voided.
