2019 NBA All Star Weekend Tickets
2019 NBA All Star Weekend tickets are on sale now! Fans of the NBA living in Charlotte rejoice. After much speculation, the league officially announced the 2019 all star weekend is coming to the “Queen City.” The NBA has not enjoyed the high ratings it has gotten over the past few years since Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, and Larry Bird dominated the game. We have a new generation of legends in the making that include Russell Westbrook, James Harden, Kevin Durant, and LeBron James.
The 2019 NBA all star game takes place on Sunday February 17, 2019. What do you need to know about tickets to the big game?
Let’s find out.
2019 NBA All Star Weekend Tickets in High Demand
As the home to the NBA Charlotte Hornets, the Spectrum Center seats nearly 20,000 fans. You can expect demand for tickets to the 2019 all star weekend game to far exceed the capacity of the Spectrum Center. High demand and low supply produces an inflationary effect that will push ticket prices up the closer we get to 2019 all star weekend. We encourage fans to purchase tickets long before the event sells out. This is especially true for groups that want to book parties in one of the luxury suites. Remember the ticket you buy for the all star game is just for the game, not for the numerous other events held throughout the weekend.
Where to Buy Tickets
Tickets are currently on sale for the 2019 NBA all star game. You can also purchase 2019 NBA all star weekend tickets for the skills competition and rising stars game. The Spectrum Center offers walk up service for fans who want to view the detailed seating chart. We recommend fans visiting from out of town become familiar with the layout inside the Spectrum Center. You can also purchase tickets for the big game online through sources. Reputable online ticket sites should present the seating chart for the Spectrum Center.
North Carolina Scalping Laws
Fans that visit Charlotte for the 2019 all star weekend, but do not have tickets to the game, might be tempted to purchase tickets sold by scalpers. In North Carolina, selling tickets to any event for more than three dollars what the tickets are worth is considered breaking the law. However, a recent bill signed by the governor permits online ticket scalping, without any restrictions on the price charge for tickets sold for any event. The mantra “Buyer Beware” pertains to buying scalped tickets online. Stay away from online classified advertisement sites such as Craigslist. Stick with trusted online ticket merchants, such as StubHub and TicketsNow. Your best strategy on the day of the all star game is to win a ticket or two from a bar or a restaurant conducting a drawing for tickets.
Tickets to 2019 All Star Weekend Parties
Charlotte will host hundreds of 2019 all star weekend parties. Most of the parties do not require tickets for guests to gain entrance. In most cases, you will need the invitation that you received asking for an RSVP. Many 2019 NBA all star game parties will take place at hotels, restaurants, and banquet halls.
