Not sure, but this might have come from me.
The sales rep for the club seat presentation told me this and that those remaining sections would not go on sale before 2026.
Just a dumb question: are we anticipating our season ticket prices to raise significantly with this new stadium?
I'm a founding member season ticket holder who typically purchases supporter section seats for something hovering around 500 a year.
I love to support this team, but I am not interesting in dropping multiple thousands of dollars just because it's the new stadium.
Genuinely curious how this is going to pan out if anyone has any intel.

From a convo with a rep, my sense is they will be slightly higher but not order of magnitude higher. My guess would be something like 50% higher, so $750 up from $500 for example. But 100% unconfirmed, and not yet finalized.

I’m fully expecting the equivalent tickets to my 129 seats I’ve had since day 1 to carry an astronomical increase. If I end up not being able to afford like for like seats in the new stadium, I will be very cranky. May mean going SS for a year and then canceling my membership entirely after year 1. Fully expecting Y2 secondaries to be way below market once the shine wears off. I’m a brick-sunk-cost -fallacy-deadender. After 30 years waiting for my team to have a stadium (including the Revs), it’s my one absolutely irrational financial self-indulgence.
This!
Applauding Revfugee and FootyLovin for emotional awareness. Everything that has happened since I cancelled has made me happier about the decision, but hopefully I'll get a picture in front of your bricks some day (possibly while wearing my founding member scarf)
Ha!
I do a fair amount of work with the concept of emotional intelligence in my job. One way of defining EQ is a 2x2 grid with awareness of own and others' emotions on one line and ability to influence own and others' emotions on the second line. Revfugee and I clearly have the awareness but we lack the ability to influence that emotional state. Alas.
Where is seat selection on your urgent/important matrix though?
That's both easy and complicated.
It is urgent because I want my seats now, but not urgent because there is nothing to be done for many months. It is important because seat location can have a major impact on enjoyment of the match. But it is not important because what I think matters (what my view is) is actually trivial compared with what will really matter and I have no way of knowing (what kind of cool people or assholes will be within 10 seats of me in any direction).
