Spartan+ Ticket Protection

Spartan+ Ticket Protection is a benefit of Spartan+ membership that allows members to commit to events with full confidence.

There are some things in this world that even Spartan grit and determination can’t overcome so we have created a program that means our members will not be stuck with a useless ticket to a canceled event.


As a Spartan+ member, if your event gets canceled or moved by Spartan, you may request a full refund of tickets, add-ons, and fees. It’s that simple.

What is it and what is covered?

  • If you are a Spartan+ member and we cancel your event without a rescheduled date we will refund your purchase. No action is necessary.
  • If we cancel the event and have rescheduled it, members may request a refund.
  • Valid only for Spartan event cancellations, not for any other participant reason such as injury or illness.
  • Covid-related Spartan event cancellations are covered.
  • Date change due to venue issues is covered and members may request a refund. 
  • Change of announced venue is covered. Venue announcement change from “TBD” to a specific venue is not covered. 
  • Local Vaccine requirements that prevent a racer from attending an event are not covered as this is out of the control of Spartan.
  • Included with Spartan+ annual, monthly, and memberships attached to Trifecta or Season pass. 
  • Must be a member on the date of the cancellation announcement to receive a refund.
  • Full-price purchasers will get their money back

  • If a member purchases multiple tickets then all tickets purchased are covered.
  • Transfers to an event that is later canceled are covered. No refund of the transfer fee ($35).
  • If your heat does not run due to extreme weather or the day-of cancellation by Spartan, members can be refunded.
  • If your heat starts but does not complete due to extreme weather, you can be refunded. Racers must request a refund in their account. 
  • Groupon purchases are not paid to or refunded by Spartan. However, tickets purchased with a Groupon voucher will have fees and add-ons refunded. Refunds on the Groupon voucher can be requested by contacting Groupon directly.
