Best way to get tickets?

Best way to get tickets?

Me, my dad, and my auntie are coming over from Nelson for the Queensland game on the 14th.

What would the best way to get tickets, dad and aunty don't really want to stand up for whole game and kinda have to stay with them but i want to be as close to the fever zone as possible, so how do you get tickets in say aisle 22 23. We don't have a ticketek retailer in nelson, so where would we go game day in Welly where we can choose a seat. Online you don't get to choose..

Don't really wanna get em at stadium coz it'll be a fag queing won't it?

Depends how big the crowd is i guess.

Anyways anything is helpful

Cheers

James Smith building has a ticketek booth.

The stadium should be fine.

if you buy them at the stadium you get random tickets at each booth not sure you can pick your seat,think you can ring ticketek and buy over the phone if you have a credit card then you could ask for the seats you want.

yeh, i did that for a few mates a while back - got the seats they wanted, ticketek email you the tickets - it cops a manky $8 booking fee though

Ticketek is the  best way to go...yeah right

Seriously tho..the outlet at James Smith closes around 12 I seem to recall...although that was for a Saturday match.  Might pay to check over the phone

There is a ticketek booth at the Michael Fowler Centre.

Beware their advice though.  When I went there from out of town they got the orientation of the stadium 180 degrees wrong.

There is now a thicketek outlet at the New world supermarket a the Wellington rail station.
It is in the coffee shop / cafe in the entrance (rather than inside the supermarket).

The staff there seem OK

Avoid 22 if you want a seat... the majority of the zone is between 21 and 22...

23 was great

railway metro has a ticketek booth apparently. might be worth trying them, theyll deft be open

gate sales, at least that way you dont give ticketek any money. Mr twig2007-12-05 02:04:19

We'll try the station early afternoon on Friday as staying in Plimmerton.

BTW i've just finished college and have enrolled for Uni, i must be able to go as a student? or do you need id?

Well, your College ID should still be valid...

True

enjoy the game bro

Off topic Ticketek rant (sorry News) but I really hope Tony prints off a few choice Ticketek stories from this message board and takes them to the review meeting I'm sure he'll have with some Ticketek sales numpty at the end of the season.

exactly. how is it that going to the ticketek office incurrs a $6 booking fee, and yet a ticket booth at the stadium is less??? punishing people for getting there tickets early what the hell sort of an idea is that.

If you buy 10 tickets though, you pay $8 extra over the phone, and $3 extra per student and $4 extra per adult.

It all depends on volume...

My mate and I are coming down for the Sydney game on 4 January. What time does the ticket booth open at the stadium? We're coming down early so can maybe spend a few hours at the Backbencher. Would it be easier to get tickets at the railway station outlet??

you will get a ticket no probs, i think though coz its the final home game it will be a bit busier than normal so would get em at train station mate. or on the net and get em to your house.

I live in Ch-Ch and went to the Perth game a couple of weeks agp. I bought my tickets online at www.ticketek.co.nz and chose the Yellow Fever Zone, and we got 5 tickets in Aisle 22, which I thought were fantastic seats. We stood the entire game, singing, chanting etc. They then email you the tickets in PDF, which you print off, fold over a couple of times, and you scan the barcode as you go in - simple as.

See my experience here - http://www.yellowfever.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3814

Actually, I don't think it'll be that busy. In fact, it may end up being the smallest crowd of the season, given that a lot of people will probably still be on holiday.

That would be such a shame too. A small crowd sends all the wrong signals. I hope it's a huge crowd, but I have the same concerns I'm afraid.

the kids free deal should help numbers, and we can all twist the arms of any of our out of town visitors - they'll thank us for it!!

edit -that's kids free with a parent

Wonder if I'll get a refund on the Junior News' season ticket    

The clubs are just out to rort the active support... needs more flarez and Roofs zOMG !  (just for KP and our other visitors).

It doesn't matter too much. I'm picking next season will be a fantastic one for the Phoenix. More winz meanz more fanz, as we can tell already.

Yea im gutted i'l miss my first home game

Because i'l be away.( Not of personal choice obviously)

Yep, unfortuantely I'll miss the Sydney game too, but I'm making up for it by going to the Melbourne game at the Telstra Dome on 11 January.

I'll also ensure that some worthy soul borrows my season pass for the Sydney game to keep up the numbers.el grapadura2007-12-18 22:03:39

i knew i was in for many a scary and possibly traumatising moment when i registered but...

coming to sydney game at this stage have maybe 10 people coming and a few more thinking about it,ezi tickets are definetly the way to go just print them on your computer and cheaper than getting them couriered.

Yeah, I'm going to be in the North Island at the time so will go to the Sydney game (is it on the 4th)?

Yup, on the 4th.

Sweet, see you guys there then.

Any idea when Season tickets go on sale for next season?

After the debacle at the start of this season I'll be keen to get in earlier and secure my seat for the seaon.

aaaarrgghh, don't mention the war

ticketek

just when i was recovering
