The Blackhawks have an adaptive, data-driven system for ticket pricing and management, and prefer that tickets not be sold through third-party brokers.
Home Opener
The Blackhawks will again kick off the season with a red carpet event before the team’s home opener on Thursday, Oct. 17 against the San Jose Sharks at 7:30 p.m. The event will be held on Madison Street and inside the United Center Atrium, offering an exclusive opportunity for ticketed fans to see players make their arrival for the first home game of the season.
Over the summer, the Blackhawks added eight players via free agency and one via trade. Several top prospects are knocking at the door.
