Second-Chance Ticket Drop for Bill Nye "The Science Guy"

Following an incredible response to the first-ever Early Access ticket release for Bill Nye "The Science Guy," the Barrick Lecture Series is making an additional limited number of tickets available through a Second-Chance Ticket Drop.

Second-Chance Ticket Drop

Opens: Wednesday, Sept. 2 at 10 a.m.

Closes: Thursday, Sept. 3 at 10 a.m.

The Second-Chance Ticket Drop is not first-come, first-served. UNLV faculty and staff may submit a ticket request at any time during the 24-hour request period. If requests exceed the number of available tickets, recipients will be randomly selected from all eligible submissions.

No preference is given to early submissions. All eligible requests received during the request period will be given equal consideration.

Each person may submit one request for one ticket and must be signed in to their UNLVMail account. Duplicate submissions will be removed.

If you successfully submitted a ticket request during Early Access and received a confirmation email, you’re all set and do not need to submit another request. Early Access ticket recipients are not eligible for the Second-Chance Ticket Drop.

All participants will be notified by email on Thursday, Sept. 3, whether or not they were selected. Selected recipients must accept their ticket by 5 p.m. Friday, Sept. 4. Tickets are nontransferable.

Those not selected will have another opportunity when General Access tickets are released Tuesday, Sept. 8 at noon.

Bill Nye "The Science Guy" will appear at UNLV as part of the Barrick Lecture Series on Monday, Sept. 28.
