Bleachers are by far the most sensitive to price changes. Your best bet is to only raise prices when your arena is full for that category and only raise it by a max of 10% at a time.

But if it is as low as $5, then you are right in saying it is artificially low. It can probably be fine at around $10 which is the default when you start

Ya when I set it at $5 I did not realize how damaging that would be to my ticket revenue. For some reason I just wanted to sell out the stadium regardless of the money, but I am glad the time for changing ticket prices are coming out because I will be making alot more with the changes.

I have a question for yo fella`s about arena prices.

My Courtside seats and luxury boxes have sold out every single week of this season ( I have gradually been adding more). My courtside seats are set at $100 and luxury boxes are set at $800. Because they always sell out I would like to raise them in the upcoming change.

My question is what should I raise them too? I have read in this thread that a 10% rise is good. Do you think that 10% would be good for me?

I think that would be a good assumption for your arena too but I'm a little hesitant because you have so few seats.
Have you raised the price this season or is the current price the same for the hole season?
You should be careful with the position you hold in your league because as i can see you have a very balanced league.Loosing 2-3 balls in the Fan Survey you may lose some of your seats even in you higher priced places(Courtside/Luxury).
But 10% usually pays off pretty nicely and even if you don't fill up all the seats you will not lose many and you will be compensated by the higher price.

Thanks for the reply.

My ticket prices are the same as the start of the season. I was reluctant to raise my pices because of the very reason you pointed out. All the teams in my league seem to be pretty well balanced and a couple of losses would see a spiral down the league meaning less fans.

I think I`ll go for the small price increase and take my chances.
