REGINA — The Saskatchewan Roughriders have unveiled their 2017 season ticket pricing and seating map for new Mosaic Stadium, which will host the first Riders game in June of 2017.
In addition to ticket pricing, the Riders have also announced more details on their Season Ticket Holder Transition Plan, which will reseat over 24,000 current Season Ticket Holders into new Mosaic Stadium. The transition process will begin in the coming months and is expected to take up to 12 months to complete.
Riders season ticket holders in standard seating sections who take advantage of early bird payment discounts will see price points that range from $27 to $81 per game. Single game tickets can be purchased at price points ranging from $32 to $98 per game.
“This is an exciting time for our fans as we will shortly have an incredible new stadium that will soon be the envy of the league,” said President and CEO Craig Reynolds. Reynolds revealed the news Thursday in a press conference that can be seen on Riderville.com.
“We took a fair and balanced approach to pricing at new Mosaic Stadium, including providing a number of price points and options which we feel will ensure capacity crowds will continue to provide us with the incredible home field advantage that our players feed off of.
“We feel with the exceptional experience and amenities that new Mosaic stadium will deliver, that the value for our fans will be second to none.”
Highlights of the new Mosaic Stadium pricing structure include:
- Standard seating single game adult tickets ranging from $32 – $98 per game.
- Season ticket packages for a family of four (two adults and two youth) for less than $100/game.
- Youth season tickets from $20.64 with early bird payment discount.
- Adult season ticket packages from $27.52 – $81.34 per game with early payment discount.
- Tickets for some locations will drop in price by over 22 per cent.
- The lowest-priced season ticket tier will decrease by seven per cent from current Mosaic Stadium
- Four of six Season Ticket pricing tiers will increase by three per cent or less
- The highest priced (tier 1) season ticket will see a 10 per cent increase based on early bird pricing
The Roughriders will continue to be the only team in the league offering youth discounts in all seat sections.
Reseating continues to be a point of emphasis, as it marks the largest season ticket holder movement in Canadian sports history with 24,000 being moved to the new stadium. Reynolds said the Riders leaned on other teams for the best approach to moving season ticket holders.
“Other teams are very forthcoming in things they’d do differently and things they’d do the same, and we looked a ton in terms of pricing and how you price to ensure sellouts,” said Reynolds.
Season ticket holders will receive pricing and reseat process information via mail and email in the coming days. Information on ticket pricing, reseating, stadium details and amenities will also be available at www.newmosaicstadium.com.
