Tickets to attend Barack Obama's speech in Grand Forks next week are available now online.
Visit www.demnpl.com for the free general-admission tickets to see the Democratic presidential candidate at the Alerus Center. The tickets will be delivered by e-mail.
For those without Internet access, ticket locations are still being finalized, party officials in North Dakota said.
Obama is scheduled to begin speaking at 5:30 p.m. on April 4. Gates will open at 3:30 p.m. For security reasons, attendees need to be seated at least 20 minutes prior to the speech.
The Alerus Center can seat up to 21,000 when set up for a concert. Obama's speech will be the keynote address for the 2008 state Democratic party convention.
About an hour earlier, Obama will appear at a state party fundraiser at one of the Alerus Center's ballrooms. Tickets are $100 each.
