In the past it was only 3 times a season but it changed to be able to change prices at any time a while ago.

Thanks, the manual in my language does not include that change.

I sent a message to the Spanish LA for him to check.


It is no longer necessary. The manual does not refer to the three changes.
It is in a "modern" guide to the game dating from 2015 where I read that restriction.

My mistake.

… I would recommend to start with bleachers, they pay back first and give you more flexibility in case of winning (and loosing) streaks,


I have to correct myself:
1 VIP-Box 16.000 $ pays back with the 17th game at the latest, if permanetly sold from the beginning.

You can buy 80 bleachers for 16.000 $ which are easier to sell, thats why I stated, that they pay back earlier. The minimum revenue of these 80 seats is 400 and they pay back with the 41st game.

Based on what I've read in the forums, I think the optimal path depends on whether you expect to mostly win or lose in the coming months. I will probably lose most of my games, so I try to focus on higher tier seats.

Correct, expensive seats are filled even with poor results if you put them at the right price.
The cheap ones if you don't win are very difficult to fill even with the price at its lowest.

On the other hand, if you win many games you can get cheap seats even with higher prices.

It's not an exact science but more or less.

2. the are no fixied fees for each step of expansion

4. I.e. Adding 2000 seats to a 8000 seat arena (adding 25%) takes longer than adding 1000 and 1000


Are you sure?

Bleachers: 200$ for seat
Lower Tier: 700$ for seat
Courtside Seats: 2000$ for seat
Luxury Boxes: 16000$ for seat

Since I started to expand with 6,000 seats until now that I have more than 10,000, the construction prices have not changed. And according to what my colleagues have told me, the stadium with more than 22,000 seats has not changed either.

Bleachers: 249 in 6 days, 499 in 7 days, 999 in 9 days, 1999 in 13 days. 1 more day for 250 seat extra.
Lower Tier: 166 in 6 days, 333 in 7 days, 666 in 9 days, etc. 1 more day for 166 seat extra.
Courtside Seats: 99 in 6 days... 1 more day for 100 seat extra.
Luxury Boxes: 48 in 6 days

With the data I have, the construction budget, it would take longer to build 1000+1000 seats (20 days) than to build 2000 at once (14 days). Unless the builder is scamming me, which I highly doubt given their reputation for meeting deadlines and budgets.

I did. not double check this, but I am fine with being wrong, but following stays:

I recommend to expand it in some smaller steps:
1. you will get a better feeling for pricing and attendance of the larger arena
2. the are no fixied fees for each step of expansion
3. the more seats you add, the longer it takes … you can sell the new seats earlier and earn money

Do not expand to more than 21.000 seats in total (I would rather go for 18-20000).
Faktor 3-2,5 / 1 / 500 / 50
(Bleachers 3-2,5 : 1 Lower Tier)



With the data I have, the construction budget, it would take longer to build 1000+1000 seats (20 days) than to build 2000 at once (14 days). Unless the builder is scamming me, which I highly doubt given their reputation for meeting deadlines and budgets.

From my professional experience (being a construction project manager for about 22 years now) they never will

Hello everyone!
I am a new enthusiastic player, and I would like to start expanding the Arena right away. How do you recommend proceeding? Should I spend all the money I have at once, or do small works week by week? Also, how should I balance the proportion between standing places, seats, courtside seats, etc.? For every 1000 standing places added, should I also add 100 seats and 10 courtside seats, or how else do you recommend proceeding? Thank you all for the help!

P.S. I have noticed that there are differing opinions among users regarding the ticket prices in the Arena: some say not to change them game by game (due to possible reactions from the fans), others suggest changing them based on the opponent and type of match (TV, playoffs, strong opponent, direct rival...) and analysis from the spokesperson. What do you think about this? The more advice, the better.
P.P.S. Do you recommend getting a level 2 spokesperson (just to have one with a specialty) right from the start? I have read that many users have benefited right away from the spokesperson's specialty, regardless of their level.

Thank you very much for the help and advice, and enjoy Buzzer Beater!
