2024 Season Ticket Renewals / Playoffs

[samiam]

How many Oiler bucks do they give you again? And do they work at Ice District Authentics? I can't recall.

You get $100 in Oiler Bucks per seat IF you renew your seats by the preliminary deadline in March.

Has anyone received their season ticket packages yet?? I received mine but no oiler bucks? Anyone get oiler bucks with package

if you sell a lot of your games or transfer to other people... OEG stopped giving oilerbucks to those that sell/transfer to others

I'm curious where you got this information from.
It clearly states in the renewal package, that as long as you renew your seats and submit your deposit, you will receive $100 in Oiler Bucks per seat. Period. No conditions/Fine print.
As my season seats are for business, I transfer 90%+ of my games to clients. I have always received my Oilers Bucks.
There seems to be some holes in your theory above, and was just wondering where you may have received your information. Cheers

From the oilers. They said if you sell more than you attend you get put on a list and they don’t send oilers bucks to those

We have four partners, so 75 percent gets transferred away from the primary account holders. The four also then sell them or transfer to others. Always got out bucks before.

I’m looking to buy tickets to 1 or 2 games this season. Any recommendations on best sites?

sent you a message

 

[PaPaDee]

Not sure if allowed in here, but I’m looking for 2 tickets (preferably lower bowl) for October 21st versus the Jets. Message me if you have anything available.

Does anyone know when the account credits for paying for your season tickets early generally hit the account? The Oilers reps refuse to tell me and it's frustrating because I'm looking to buy people tickets for gifts that I could use the credits for to get for free.

Looks like 24/25 season seats going up by 12%…wow!!

 

[samiam]

With the exception of when we transitioned to the new arena, this is the biggest price increase in my 23 years as a season seat holder.
Normally it has always been 3%-5% max.
This 12% increase is crazy!

 

[Beerad]

Crazy increase, I will not be renewing.

That's insane! They had better come very close or win it all this year or they could see a lot of cancelations.

A pair of lower bowl tickets and something to eat/drink after all is said and done means about $500 for the evening. That is simply not justified for what you get.

Been a proud season seats holder since 95
Past few years I have been debating on giving them up. I believe this is the year it’s come to an end.
Can’t even get playoff tics without renewing so I guess I’ll be watching on tv this year.

 

[GMofOilers]

The playoff package is the more frustrating part, crazy increase on playoff tickets.

What are we talking for a first round ticket?

Yes you can.

 

[Ck1]

Yes you can.

You can if you pay for the playoffs in 3 payments
That’s 16k for playoffs. But you still have to renew for next year just don’t have to put the 15% down until closer to next season
I’m just a dirty old construction worker and have to pay as they play in the playoffs. I’m not in a position to put up 16k unless I take out of my retirement savings and that’s not happening. Usually I have enough banked up from tickets I sell during the season but this year wasn’t easy getting rid of a few. Anyways like I said earlier I’ve been thinking about giving them up anyways with the cost going up.

just shy of $400, over $400 for second round over $500 third round and just about $900 for finals, all prices are single seat

Wow! I think I might have paid $20-25 tops for my finals tickets back in the 80s

 

[bellagiobob]

$1,633 for each game in the final round. Wow.

 

[guymez]

$1,633 for each game in the final round. Wow.

Absolutely ridiculous that people would pay that.
If the team isnt able to re-sign McDavid it will be interesting to see how they handle the pricing.

Probably won't have to worry about playoff pricing if McDavid goes.

I have season seats in the "cheap" sections if you can even call it that and I don't have a problem paying for them now when the team is good, but there is just no possible way I would pay close to this much if they are shitty. With the renewal prices that will be even more the case.

I wish I could sit in on OEG meetings on ticketing strategy. Sports are in a funny spot because there has never been a time where there is generally less value in holding season seats. For an average NHL team you could probably buy every game on resale and end up saving money in the big picture. Would be interested to see what the strategy is for pricing if/when the team's performance slides backwards and how they would plan on retaining non-corporate holders.

35% increase for playoff tickets for my seats vs last year. Don't know if it's a consistent 35 across all seats. I think I'll pass this time around. I think it's a winning tactic: if they win I'll still be happy. If they lose at least I'll be happy that I wasn't fleeced.

Clearly the Oilers are all in for the playoffs. Ticket pricing, that is. Too bad Kenny wasn't all in before the deadline.

Makes those Stanley Cup Finals tickets at centre ice in the first row of the blues for $27.50 in 1990 look pretty good.
