Just a tip for people interested in buying tickets...

When I looked on line, the best available seat was in section 108, row 12 (now 14). But when I called and spoke to a very nice, very helpful salesguy, he found me a front row seat in section 115. True, it's on an end, but in the center of an end, and I don't mind that to get a front row seat.

Also, not all seats are available for all event tickets. They saved some very good seats for individual sales, for example row 2 in section 123 was available for each day but not for the all event ticket package. If you buy individual tickets for each day, it's about $50 more for the tickets, and you don't get any practice pass (as far as we could tell).

So, if you don't like what the on line system is giving you, print out the seating chart and call directly.

hmmm...I got 2 all event tickets at centre ice in row 5 online. I did have to reject several sets of tickets in rows 10-14 before they came up though.

I didn't do too badly. I got Section 124, Row 1, Seat 12. Was put on hold the first time I called and had to call them back. Wasn't all that terribly impressed by that as you can imagine. First time that's ever happened when I've called Ticketmaster...Weird!! Anyway...I'm happy w/my seat!!

[VGL]

Hey Tig - you're 2 sections away from Blade1 and I! Sounds like you're near where you sat in 2002.

[Tigger]

Pretty close VGL. I asked for the section I had for 2002 Cdns, but there wasn't anything available in that section close enough for what I need. I'm happy. :)

Since I cannot find this information anywhere else, do we know which events are going to be held on Friday? I would love to go to this event and this is the only day I can go! TIA.

[PAskate]

I'll be in row 5, section 123. My friend handled getting the tickets and she didn't mention any problems getting them on-line.

Nevermind, I found out AFTER I purchased tickets to that I am going to see the mens and pairs free. Thats fine by me, but I wanted to see the ladies as well. Perhaps Ill do two days.

PS: That Friday in my original post was supposed to be Saturday! :oops:

Well when ordering your tickets did you ask what days what events were being held? Or perhaps you ordered them online? Is there an event schedule somewhere?

So what's on Saturday? I got third-row tickets for Sat, but could only find 14th row for all other days. I am going to call them to try and get better seats for Fri and Sun.

Saturday is the mens and pairs free

[Lili]

I ordered my tickets online and did not see that to the side there was the description of the event.

I will be attending Friday as well, I just bought the tickets! 6th row center. Perhaps if you call you will get better seats.

These skating competitions are taking their toll on my wallet! First it was Skate America, and now Four Continents. Ahh well, its worth it. ;)

Does anyone know what side the judges will be sitting on?

[VGL]

Judges are in section 108
