As part of a $6.3 million renovation project spearheaded by the Milwaukee Admirals and the Wisconsin Center District to upgrade the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Panther Arena, the Admirals unveiled three new seating areas Wednesday.
The Admirals will play at the arena for the first time since the 1986-1987 season, and the new seating areas were added to give fans updated options. The team’s home opener is Saturday, Oct. 29.
The new seating areas are the U.S. Bank Club, a section located right next to the glass on the north end of the ice for up to 60 guests; the Ice Box, an area with seating for up to 12 between the Admirals and visiting team benches; and the South Goal Tap Room, a bar located on the south side of the arena behind the stands that will have 12 beers on tap.
The cost per ticket to watch the game from the U.S. Bank Club is $65 and $75 on “premium” game nights. Any group of 40 or more will have exclusive access to the area. The cost to rent out the Ice Box for a game is $750 on regular game nights and $1,000 on “premium” game nights. The cost includes 12 tickets and $300 in concession cards.
Fans can pay $40 on regular game nights for a seat immediately behind the south goal and two drink tickets at the South Goal Tap Room. The deal will cost $45 on premium game nights.
