The Arizona Coyotes are at the bottom of the NHL standings, but next year they’re hoping to charge premium prices to see them.
The team released its ticket prices for the 2022-23 season, with season tickets ranging from $3,649 to $14,350. Half-season options are available for around 60% of the season ticket prices.
Supply will be limited: After a dispute around its current home, Gila River Arena, the Coyotes will play at least the next three seasons at Arizona State University, which has a capacity of 5,100.
- Gila River Arena holds more than triple that – 18,300 – but the team’s average home attendance this season has been 11,414, third-lowest in the NHL.
- The Coyotes will call ASU home for the next three seasons, with an option for the 2025-26 season.
Perhaps most eye-catching are the single-game prices announced for next season: Tickets start at $89 and rise to $350. One can currently find a seat at Gila River Arena for $24.
Desert Drama
The Coyotes were nearly locked out of their own arena earlier this year over $1.3 million in unpaid city and state taxes. The franchise caught up on its bills in December, citing human error for the issue.
The team’s situation has been in flux since the city of Glendale told the team in August that its lease would not be renewed.
In September, the Coyotes proposed a new 46-acre arena and entertainment district in Tempe.
