Questions
Tickets
How much are tickets?
Women’s, Beatmaker and Youth Nights are $25. Friday is $30 for the 8 AM–3 PM $10K tournament and $60 for Main Event Day 1, 4:30–11 PM. Saturday’s main event is $60. The Monday pre-kickoff is free. Coming more than one day? See the packages below.
Friday has two prices. Which do I need?
$30 gets you into the DS6 x KCS tournament during the day. $60 gets you into Main Event Day 1 that night. Want both? Buy both, or get a package: it counts Friday as one day.
How do I get my tickets?
They’re emailed as QR codes once we confirm your payment. Show them on your phone at the door. One scan per ticket.
Can I buy at the door?
Yes, if presale doesn’t sell out. Door prices may be higher.
Refunds?
Tickets, packages and $10K entries are non-refundable. If a night is cancelled, you get a full refund to the card you paid with. If a night moves to a new date, your ticket is good for the new date, or ask for a refund within 7 days of the announcement. Can't make it? Transfer your ticket to a friend instead. Full terms: deadendfam.com/terms.
The $10K battle
How do I enter the $10K open?
Register online for $85: name, krump name, where you rep, a photo, and payment. Your spot locks once we confirm the payment. 200 online spots. VIP includes the entry.
What photo do I need?
Just you, face visible, no filters or text. It goes on your battler card, the bracket and the contenders wall.
Packages, vault & merch
What packages are there?
Bronze ($95): any 3 days, you pick them. Silver ($145): all 5 days and DS6 merch. Gold ($195): all 5 days, merch and a food voucher. VIP ($300): all 5 days, a DS6 gift box, 2 food/drink vouchers each day, VIP seating, lightning lane entry and access to watch the $10K tournament. One QR covers every day in your package. The free Monday kickoff needs no ticket.
How many VIP packages are there?
Only 20. VIP is for watching: it gets you into the $10K tournament as a spectator, not as a battler. To battle, register for the $10K Open separately.
Can I give my pass to someone else?
Bronze, Silver and Gold: yes. Transfer it from your ticket email and the QR code moves to the new holder. VIP can’t be transferred, because it carries your $10K battler entry.
Where do I get my merch, vouchers and gift box?
At check-in. Show your QR and pick them up there.
What is the vault presale?
Video of every DS6 battle. Pre-order the full week (coming soon) or one day (coming soon) now. Single videos (coming soon) go on sale after the event. It all unlocks on Feb 21. Stream or download.
Can I buy merch online?
No. Merch is a limited run, only at the merch table during the event. Silver, Gold and VIP packages include merch.
