Please note: This was an April Fools gag – there are no tickets for sale, entry is free and there is plenty of room!

Due to unprecedented interest in the Celebration Weekend at the State Hockey Center (Queens Birthday weekend), the event is now SOLD OUT!

Pre-event tickets were initially expected to be limited to players, friends and family members however word quickly spread via social media and sales skyrocketed. So much so that the venue capacity of 2000 has been reached and no further tickets will be available to the general public.

“Quite an incredible show of support from the Gridiron community” said a GV spokesperson when asked for comment.

“We expected a big crowd for our first ever Women’s All Star Game on the Friday night however most patrons opted for the inclusive 3 day pass which exhausted allocation”.

The league is making a small number of tickets available to VIP guests and sponsors however those without a ticket will have to try their luck on Stubhub where Friday night passes are already commanding a prices well in excess of face value.

“Unfortunately only those with a valid ticket will be admitted at any point during the entire weekend” the spokesperson added. “Only registered players, coaches and officials will have their allocation honored at this time”

According to GV the last tickets were purchased online in the early hours of this morning.
