Event registration will be available on February 17, 2025, at 6:00 PM CST.

One of the challenges for groups that attend NAYC is locating a seat in the stadium for services. We are piloting a test plan that would offer leaders an opportunity to register for a reserved section on Level 100 on Monday, February 17th at 6:00 PM CST during NAYC Event Registration as you would any level. When you arrive at NAYC25, your group would select and occupy their number of registered seats within the reserved section on Level 100. While the individual seats may change for a group during the event, they would have seats in their reserved section for all of NAYC!

The Reserved Sections on the map and Reserved Section badges will be one color, but NAYC25 Event Registration offers you the exciting opportunity to sit within one of the 8 reserved sections.

The eight reserved sections will be:

• Section 101
• Section 102
• Section 103
• Section 105
• Section 148
• Section 151
• Section 152
• Section 153

Please watch NAYC Conversations for more information on Reserved Sections.
