1. A system for providing event content to a system user, comprising:
- an event server configured to manage said event content, said event server providing a restricted access to said event content over an electronic network; and
a user device configured to communicate with said event server over said electronic network by performing a wireless communications procedure, said user device including a processor, a display, a device memory, a sound module, one or more user interfaces, and input/output interfaces, said input/output interfaces including a wireless communications interface, a network interface, and a removable memory interface, said device memory storing user data related to said system user for sending to said event server to facilitate optimally providing said event content, said user data including at least one of a user profile, event location information, and access rights, said access rights including one or more time-stamped access capabilities that each correspond to a different event service, said time-stamped access capabilities being provided by said event server after receiving said access code from said user device, said user device initially providing an access code to said event server for accessing said event content, said event server responsively providing said event content to said user device until said access code expires.

Abstract
A system and method for selectively providing information to a user device includes an event server that provides restricted access to various types of event content information and services related to a particular event. A wireless portable user device may provide an access code to the event server at a particular event location through a wireless base station that is coupled to a local area network. A system user may thereby utilize the user device to access the event server for downloading appropriate event content information and related services until the foregoing access code expires.

36. A system for providing event content to a system user, comprising:
-
an event server configured to manage said event content, said event server providing a restricted access to said event content over an electronic network; and
a user device configured to communicate with said event server over said electronic network by performing a wireless communications procedure, said user device initially providing an access code to said event server for accessing said event content, said user device having one or more time-stamped access capabilities that are each utilized to access a different event service, said time-stamped access capabilities being provided by said event server after receiving said access code from said user device.
