Boca tickets on sale
TICKETS to the Wellington Phoenix-Boca Juniors gala event match will go on sale mid-June.

Not only will 2010/11 season members receive a 10% on ticket prices, they will also enjoy an exclusive one-week period to buy tickets before they go on sale to the general public. So members can get a discounted price AND purchase their favourite seats for the big game against the champion Argentinean team.

So get your season membership, and keep an eye on www.facebook.com/wellingtonphoenixfc and www.twitter.com/wgtnphoenixfc for announcements on sale date.

Terry S on Deaker show now

Two new sponsers to be announced soon aswell

Great news.  So how much have they said it costs to run the Phoenix per season?  I know they've mentioned it.  And how much do the sponsors cover?

lol @ "sonny" :D

great news that

Would be good if members got a quota like with the finals - have a workmate keen to go and could also hit up some others.

Anyone know of the prices yet?

I don't but it is almost mid-June so not long to go.

OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!

December was pretty much a given (road transport easier with family).

Was hoping to bring up a bunch of others but people are bloody hard to motivate.......

Please keep me informed about team appearances (Phoenix or Boca) or trainings on Thursday 22 July or 23 July because I will do anything to get my son in and around the players.

Thanks Shane Jones for creating Grabaseat's Labour of love!

No stripey, no likey

No stripeys around at the moment.  May be lucky and new gear comes in before the boca Jnr match.

Love it. Thanks.

BTW congrats Ahmad for winning the Sony Style prize from Twitter :)

Still nothing on the ticketek site for this match.

There's a waitlist for the match (need to be a ticketek memeber). On front page click on the sports tab and then it is on the bottom left. No other info at the moment but could sign up if you want to know early, though probably on here just as quick. Good to see some movement though, bring it on!

Banking on finding out from here or from the nix in due course. 

I can smell the PAX 

yep pretty much.

HOLY sh*t Anyone else shocked by the prices???

Standard prices (Wellington Phoenix season 2010/11 members receive a 10% discount of they purchase June 21-23)
Gold: Adult $69, children $32, family (two adults, two children) $180
Silver: Adult $48, children $22, family (two adults, two children) $125

How much was the Galaxy game?? More expensive than both the Bahrain Qualifier (international game) and the A-League Semi-Finals....

Its bloody Expensive, I'm really shocked I actually can't afford $48 but its the nix so I will find it some how but I won't be buying for a while. I don't think many people will pay this price to watch to be honest.

Its not that expensive, whats a silver ticket worth to a regular season game 35ish?

Hmm.  $112.50 for silver family.  I think the Bahrain game was $99.

Yeah suppose.

I thought us season pass holders were going to get a discount?

1). Price - about 25% too high.

THanks WB .. answers a question I had about being able to select seats if booking on Monday. I guess we can't  So it will be a case of getting in early for a saving, or going later for the specific seats. I will probably opt for the former.   

Let's face it - they are doing it for the money and the promoters are (like FIFA in the World Cup) going to charge the highest price they can get away with and still sell seats.

The hardcore (Mr. Cboz himself) would go hungry for a week to go to this game and they know it.

But my first thoughts on the pricing are they are just milking the football high this country has at the moment, and I just don't think people are going to fall for it. Maybe I will be proved wrong.

I'm loathe to complain too much about the pricing publicly as I don't want to put people off coming (and a big crowd is important not necessarily for the atmosphere but more so for the success and viability of the event leading to future such events).

So I guess I'll try to restrict my public bitching to this forum - at least it's partly sheltered.

How much was Galaxy? Robb said around $70 so in that case is this an expected price?

Student price?

Negative!!

I am not so much concerned with the price, though it's definitely higher than expected.

The main issue people not being able to select their seats during the members sale.

The last time we had that situation, the LA Galaxy game, we got stuck with a bunch of muppets behind us who complained to security we were standing up in the Yellow Fever zone.

I'll see how sales go, but I think I'll wait till Wednesday to pick seating.

With these prices wouldn't there be a reasonable chance you'll be able to shift seats without a lot of difficulty?
