I'm going to SFGAM tomorrow, and I currently have a season pass that needs to be activated with the picture and everything. Just wanted to know, where do I go to get that activated? If I dont get an answer its OK, but I just wanted a heads up on where to go. TIA, Steve
Hey Steve. Do you mean that you have a pass from last year that you're trying to activate for this year? Or, do you have a ticket that you're trying to process for a brand new pass for this year. I believe there is a Season Pass information booth outside of the park, near the ticket booths. You might try to go there if you're trying to activate last year's pass, since you probably can't get into the park until it's activated. But, I'm not familiar with activating season passes and such.
no, if you have a ticket from jewel, u go into the park like you bought a regular ticket, then you go over by where triple play is (it's by the main stage and where you buy speed passes).. there are signs all over the park that say season pass processing. you just follow them. you already bought your pass so all u need to do is go get a pic and stuff. i bought one from jewel this year myself. just go in by regular admissions and KEEP your ticket stub and there is a building called pass processing center, u go there and give it to them and they take ur pic and ur done! it was really easy. not a wait at all. basically follow the signs.

Very cool, now, another question, tomorrow is a bring your friend for free day. Can he come in the park with me, or does my friend have to wait outside the park, while I go in and get my season pass processed?
well i'm not really sure but i'm pretty sure youre going to have to wait in line by the main line with your friend because they probably will want to see you have a season pass maybe. i would just wait with them. you'll be bored all by yourself. honestly, i don't think you get in any quicker with a season pass. everyone has to wait to be checked by security guards. just make sure u remember that coupon! lol

Another tip is to fill out all the Season Pass information on that ticket before you go to the park. A guy sits outside of the Processing building with clipboards for those who purchase at the park or didn't fill out the information. By doing this, you get to process your pass quicker and go on to the fun. And, for your friend, as long as you have the Season Pass ticket, he should be able to get into the park with you at the same time.
yeah, I called them today about it, as long as you show them the ticket stub they should let you in. If they pull crap with you just say "Well, Im just gonna go in there, get in line, then come back out with the pass, and then I will get my friend in for free". If they make you do that try a diff. window I'm sure some other people would be nice and let you pass. If not just go in there get in line and come back out as soon as you get your pass processed
The season pass processing use to be at the main gate. I dont know why they decided to put it inside the park. The place where they process the passes now use to be an arcade.
I finally retired the Sarah Palin signature because she is now 100% irrelevant.
This isn't going to help you that much but for anyone else who doesn't know that reads this, its in hometown square next to the firehouse pizza place. its got the words Season Pass Processing Center
Yeah, thanks for that. I'll never have to use it, it just struck me as awkward that it would be in the park. Do you have the tear away ticket from the pass so that you can park for free the first time?
I don't think you get to park for free, but you take that day's parking pass($10) to the Processing Center and get a Parking Pass for an additional $30. On the Season Pass ticket, you keep the part with all your information on it.
Yeah, we don't get to park free (I don't think)... That would be nice though. $10 just to have your car sit all day is pretty steep. I can see why it's so high though, because at the end of the day the parking lot looks like a landfill. It's horrible! People that don't throw their trash in the cans really annoy me. They have tons of trash cans everywhere.
If you were to buy your pass somewhere else, at SFWoA there is a tab that you rip off and you get free parking to go any day of the year to get your pass processed and you get to park your car for free. That's why I was wondering.
to get a parking pass its 40 dollars, there is a booth outside of the gate of SFGAM and its called season passes. you buy season passes there and you buy parking passes. you should get your ten dollars back when you buy the parking pass. i didn't this year because the guy didn't know what the heck he was doing and didn't do it right.
