Washington Nationals - Discount Tickets
If you were 40 or older and bought Washington Nationals single-game tickets directly from the team between March 29, 2023 and March 28, 2024, you were excluded from a discount offered only to fans aged 21–39. A federal court approved a settlement on September 12, 2025, and you can choose between a ticket credit (no action needed) or a cash payment (file by December 12, 2025).
Official eligibility wordingYou may be a Settlement Class member if you were age 40 or older when you bought a single-game ticket directly from the Nationals (online, by phone, or at the box office) for a 2023 or 2024 regular-season home game between March 29, 2023 and March 28, 2024, in an Eligible Seat section, and were ineligible for the “Millennial” or “Young Professional” discount due to your age.

Key facts
- Who may qualify You may qualify if you were 40 or older when you bought at least one single-game ticket directly from the Nationals (on Nationals.com, MLB.com, by phone, or at the box office) for a 2023 or 2024 regular-season home game between March 29, 2023 and March 28, 2024, and your seat was in one of these sections: Baseline Box, Baseline Reserved, Infield Box, Corner, Scoreboard Pavilion, or Upper Gallery.
- Claim deadlineDecember 12, 2025 (closed)
- What you needKnown class members (people the Nationals already have on record) don't need to do anything to get the ticket credit. To get a cash payment instead, submit a claim form by December 12, 2025. If you're an unknown class member, you must file a claim form certifying your date of birth and confirming your purchase, and you have 90 days after final judgment to do so.
How hard is this claim to file?
What the form asks
- Date of birth — Your date of birth, sworn under penalty of perjury, to show you were 40 or older when you bought the ticket. (Your own personal records.)
- Ticket purchase affirmation — A sworn statement that you bought a covered ticket during the eligible window. (Your order history on the Nationals website, MLB.com, or any box office receipt you have.)
- Election of benefit type — Choose between a Ticket Credit or a cash payment. (Your own preference. Ticket Credit goes to your MLB.com account; cash comes from the Settlement Administrator.)
Watch out for
- The cash payment deadline was December 12, 2025. If you missed it and you're a Known Class Member, a Ticket Credit may still come your way automatically.
- Only tickets in specific sections qualify: Baseline Box, Baseline Reserved, Infield Box, Corner, Scoreboard Pavilion, and Upper Gallery. Other seats aren't covered.
- Unknown Class Members don't get anything automatically. You had to submit a Claim Form to receive either benefit.
- The discount the lawsuit challenged ended March 28, 2024, so tickets you buy now aren't part of this.
