In-hand dates should not be less than 7 calendar days out from an event. If no in-hand date is specified in the listing file, or if the specified in-hand date has passed, the listing will display as being in-hand.
In-hand dates closer to the day of the event are acceptable only for Special Delivery listings, and specific teams, venues, or events that are subject to delivery delays from the primary market box office.
Additional policies on acceptable in-hand dates can be found in section 4.3 of the Large Seller Handbook.
