How much do playoff tickets cost?

[HockeyCrazy3033 168]

During the game tonight they said playoff tickets are going on sale, and im REALLY interested in getting some. Anyone know how much it costs for Round 1?

[Echolalia 2,961]

150 dollars for lower bowl for the first round

[HockeyCrazy3033 168]

150 dollars for lower bowl for the first round

Thanks. Any idea how much upper bowl would be?

[Offsides 21]

It's a bit over $100 per...at least for the first few rows... up to at least the $54 range...after that it's close to $100, and I think the cheapies are almost $60

BEFORE service charges unfortunately.

Ouch. I don't want to know how much Rounds 3 and 4 are. lol

I just got up and checked my ticket from last year and it was $81 for section 203. That's crazzzzay. Oh well. I still REALLY want to go.

[Flip-check 6]

Yeah... I'm definitely waiting until after college to attend a Wings playoff game!

Too much money.

I'm inclined to think the regular season games are enough as it is... There was a time when they were genuinely cheaper and actually a fair price, I think, but I don't recall numbers.

These days I don't really think about going to see the Wings much more than once or twice a year, or if anyone else happens to have tickets. Lower bowl tickets are ridiculous, but seriously, that's the best place to spy the game from.

I'm kind of curious now what other teams around the league charge. I wouldn't be surprised if D-town fans get raked when it comes to this.

This may surprise you, but the Blackhawks actually charge MORE money to their games than the Wings do. The ownership there is very, very bad.

I don't know every price for every team, but I believe the Montreal Canadians are the most expensive team to go watch. Given the currency differences, it's still a lot.

I know I had a list somewhere of the teams prices, I just can't find it.

It definitely would, but I think I've heard about the Chicago folk's ownership woes there with the Hawks. Very little really, but it's ridiculous, I know.

I'm glad we don't have a situation of poor management/ownership like that... but at the same time, I'd ever be ready for ticket prices coming down. I'd sooner catch a Tigers game than the sport I favor. $40/per for infield box seats? Sure!

On the subject of playoff tickets, when will the dates of the first round games be announced. I really want tickets but there are a couple nights in mid-April that I am busy so I want to make sure.

Usually the night the regular season ends. They'll have the dates on the news, or FSN.

[puckhog419 0]

i really want to fly out to detroit for the first round beacause i have yet to go to a wings game and i have a free airline ticket. i think it is a good way to use a free ticket.

[Bluedevils_13 0]

Ya I want to go too, but none of my friends are crazy enough to spend that much to go.

[reyalp 4]

Good thing I got an awesome girlfriend thats gonna score us 2 free tickets fifth row from the ice to one of the games

[Cicada 4]

Ouch. I don't want to know how much Rounds 3 and 4 are. lol

isn't that a moot point anyway?

[HockeyCrazy3033 168]

Yeah, but I was talking in general as most playoff tickets would probably be very similar.

I can only dream about going to see the wings in the playoff's.

Nose bleed to Round 1 game 7 will set you back $63 + outrageous service and handling fees and parking.

And according the article dated March 7th... Public sales are TBD. In years past they wait up until like the tuesday of the final week (i.e. next Tuesday or Wednesday) to go onsale. The whole wings org is filled with LAST MINUTE notification. We got our Playoff invoices 3 days before they were due and got our skate at the Joe tickets 1 day before we had to show up.

[Barrie 900]

Round 1 Wings tickets are still cheaper than Regular Season Leaf tickets.

[Offsides 21]

Tickets go onsale at 10 on April 3rd

I shall have my Dad stand in line at ticketmaster with his card ready to go. I was tellling him that since I've gotten all A's & B's since being in college that this is all im asking for in return.

Just wondering.....Usually if you are on the waiting list for season tickets you get a chance to buy playoff tics before the general public, are they not doing this for individual games this year. I got my e-mail about buying 8 or 16 game packs but nothing on individual games. Anyone know anything about this?

[redwingschick33 0]

I am a member of Red Wings World, which up to this point, had been a waste of my money. However, they do a presale for RWW members and there were plenty of playoff tickets available this year. Due to my budget and the fact that I have no one to go to the games with until home game #3 of the first round, I was only able to buy tickets to 2 games.

Round 1 - Home Game #3 (5th overall) - Section 207 [center ice] Row 10 for $100/ticket

Round 2 - Home Game #2 (2nd overall) - Section 106 [center ice] Row 2 for $153/ticket

I was only planning on buying a pair of tickets in the first round, but how could you pass up second row seats in the second round of the playoffs for only $300? Maybe I'm a sucker, but sitting on or near the glass is like nothing else.

Christy

P.S. I'm also on the waiting list for season tickets and I too got the email about the 8 or 16 game ticket package, but I never heard anything about buying individual tickets.
