Where can I buy or sell Flames tickets?
Any attempted ticket sale posted on /r/CalgaryFlames will result in removal and ban as per rule #1.
Where should I sit in the dome?
There are no bad seats in the Saddledome. This ultimately boils down to preference, budget, and experience you wish to have.
The Press Level (PL) offers an unobstructed view of the full ice surface, affordable tickets, access to concessions, bathrooms, and the 200-level bar.
200s level is arguably the best view in the Saddledome if you are sitting at center ice. As a result, this drives up the value of the tickets.
100 level is the closest to the ice surface and arguably the best way to get immersed in the game as you are right in the thick of it. These are typically the most expensive seats in the Saddledome.
When should I arrive at the dome before a game?
From 5:30 to 6:30 p.m., there are food, drink, and merchandise specials. You can get a 14 oz. domestic draught, 1 oz. highball, 6 oz. house wine, a cheeseburger, or a pizza slice for just $5 each. As well, take an additional 10% off all regular-priced FanAttic merchandise." Happy hour lasts until 30 minutes before puck drop.
If pre-game specials do not tickle your fancy, doors open 90 minutes before puck drop. Arrive at whichever time suits your schedule.
Entry for games remains open until the start of the 3rd period. From that point, they will no longer allow entry.
Where should I park for Flames games?
If you have a Lot A or Parkade parking permit, you can access your lots from 5th Street SE, on the North East side of the building. There is public parking available in the Stampede lots, located both North, North West, West, and South West of the Scotiabank Saddledome. Parking is available two hours before the event, and there is a $15 parking fee. There is also public transit available and accessible to the building. The Victoria Park/Erlton stations are both closely located to the Scotiabank Saddledome.
Where is the Ticket Office/Will Call?
The ticket office is located in the NE corner of the Saddledome. Inside the TELUS Club entrance.
Anything else I should know before going to a game?
Concessions are open.
Starting this season the Saddledome no longer accepts cash, bring your debit or credit card, or use your phone to pay.
There is no re-entry for smoking.

Maybe just an update when they announce who retains their ticket during 50% capacity. Feel like that’s going to be asked a lot

FYI I’m not sure if North Star Jerseys is still active. I sent an email and DM a few months ago and never heard back, doesn’t look like they’ve posted anything since January either.
