Companion Seating

Each wheelchair accessible seat includes the option to purchase at least one (1) companion seat immediately adjacent to the wheelchair location, and, subject to availability at the time of purchase, up to a total of three (3) additional companion seats. Guests in need of additional companion seats should advise their ticket representatives at the time of purchase, and every effort will be made to locate them as close to the wheelchair space and one (1) adjacent companion seat. Unsold platform seating may be released for public sale in accordance with applicable law.

Wheelchair and Aisle Seating

People with mobility disabilities who require accessible seating because of their disability can purchase tickets for accessible seats. This group includes people who use wheelchairs or other mobility devices, people who cannot climb steps or walk long distances because of significant medical conditions, individuals who cannot sit in straight back seating because of a disability or individuals who need additional space for service animals. Tickets for accessible seating may be purchased by individuals requiring accessible seating or someone purchasing on their behalf. Accessible seats are available on all levels and in every price range. Individuals purchasing accessible seating may purchase one adjacent and up to three contiguous additional seats. Proximity to the ADA accessible seating may be affected by availability. Every effort will be made to have the seats as close as possible. Companion seating will be equivalent to seating in the immediate area, however, these seats may be moveable. For people with disabilities who do not require the specific features of accessible seating, there are also designated aisle seats for use by fans with disabilities that have removable or retractable armrests on the aisle side. These seats will be identified by signs or markers, but are not subject to policies governing accessible seating ticketing.

Ticket Exchange

Should a guest need access to a wheelchair space or accessible seating on a temporary basis, accommodations can be made through the Cleveland Browns Ticket Office. The tickets may only be exchanged, based on availability of existing accessible seats by contacting the Browns Ticket Office prior to game day. Please call the Ticket Office at (440) 891-5050 to report your need for accessible seating and to check availability. Due to the high demand, accessible seating can run out.

Mobile Ticketing FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Will all events at FirstEnergy Stadium be using digital tickets?
For the 2021 season, we will be using digital tickets for all home games. Other concerts and events will be handled on a case-by-case basis.

What does a ticket on a smartphone look like?
Tickets on your mobile phone will have a rotating barcode that refreshes every 15 seconds. This means screenshots will no longer be able to scan upon entry.

What if I don't have a smartphone?
If someone coming with you has a smartphone, you can transfer the tickets to them via Account Manager. They can use their smartphone to scan more than 1 ticket and provide you both access to the game.

On game day, if you have issues with your smartphone or do not have a smartphone you can head to the Box Office for assistance.

How do I manage or access my tickets?
If you are using the Browns Mobile App on your smartphone, you can access your Account Manager account under the "Manage Tickets" menu option.
If you are using a web browser on your smartphone or a computer, click this link to access your Account Manager.
**If you purchased tickets on Ticketmaster.com and you are using a computer, you must log into your Ticketmaster Account to manage your tickets. It is not the same portal as the Browns Account Manager. Click this link to access your Ticketmaster.com Account.

What does "manage my tickets" mean?
Once logged into Account Manager or the Browns Mobile App, you can:

  • ​Access and view your tickets on your smartphone for entry through the Browns Mobile App
  • Transfer tickets to friends or family
  • Donate tickets to charity
  • Post tickets for resale directly on Ticketmaster's Ticket Exchange, as in prior seasons
  • Add your tickets to Apple Wallet (recommended for faster entry)

What if I forgot my password?
Click "Forgot Password?" then enter the email address associated with your account and check your email to reset your password.

When I transfer tickets via Account Manager or through the Browns Mobile App, how does the recipient access the tickets?
Once you transfer tickets, the recipient will receive an email from the Browns. The recipient can accept the transfer via their computer or smartphone.

Tickets on your mobile phone will have a rotating barcode that refreshes every 15 seconds. This means screenshots will no longer be able to scan upon entry.

NOTE: Tickets transferred through Account Manager can be managed on a computer, but you will need to view tickets on your smartphone to gain access into FirstEnergy Stadium.

Can I enter FirstEnergy Stadium with multiple tickets for multiple people using one smartphone?
Yes, as long as everyone is present and enters the Stadium at the same time. The ticket holder (smartphone holder) can access multiple tickets on their phone and swipe to scan as their friends or family enter after each ticket scan. However, we recommend that you transfer tickets to each person attending the game for easier access into and throughout FirstEnergy Stadium.

What if my smartphone battery dies or my screen is cracked?
If your smartphone battery dies before entering FirstEnergy Stadium, you can visit the Box Office to get your tickets reprinted. Depending on the location and severity of the cracked screen you may have to visit the Box Office to get your tickets reprinted. For any reprint, customers must have a valid photo ID matching the name the tickets are owned by. The Box Office is unable to reprint tickets for anyone other than the ticket holder of record.

Why is the "print-at-home" delivery method or "print-at-home" functionality in Account Manager no longer available?
When digital ticketing is fully adopted, special paper stock is needed to print paper tickets. The paper you have in your home or office printer cannot encode data as RFID. Therefore, PDFs cannot exist in that ticketing environment. PDF tickets are not secure and can be easily duplicated and/or counterfeited. In preparation for digital ticketing, the NFL and the Browns have phased them out.

By phasing out PDF tickets, do I still have the ability to resell on third party sites of my choice?
Yes, subject to our other terms and conditions on resale. As digital ticketing continues to grow, most platforms have adapted to accommodate digital tickets.
