Red Sox expand military ticketing program online

BOSTON, MA - As part of a Major League Baseball initiative, the Red Sox today announced the expansion of their military ticketing program online with GovX.com, a company offering the first online verification ticketing service for the U.S. Military.  

The program will allow veterans and active members of the military to verify their military service online in order to take advantage of special pricing opportunities for regular season home games at Fenway Park. In the past, members of the military would have to show proof of service or government identification in person at the box office.

"This new partnership makes it easier for veterans and active members of the Armed Forces to come to a game at Fenway Park," said Red Sox Chairman Tom Werner. "Over the past 12 years, we have provided thousands of tickets each season to members of the military through our Tickets for Troops program, and we have also offered active duty service members an opportunity to purchase tickets on game days at the ticket office at a discounted price. We are pleased to introduce this new amenity to members of our community for whom we have such respect and gratitude."

Veterans and Military members can go to redsox.com/military to purchase tickets through the program.
