I am planning on going with my 2 kids but there are only options for purchasing 2 tickets.  I was going to buy 4 and bring a buddy or see if my Wife wanted to come with us to see my sons and I lose our minds but it only allows 2 tickets. 

 

Anyone know if you buy 2 tickets if you can come back into the app and buy another 2?or does this need to be done with another TM account?

Yes, you can. (I did it through a browser, though)

Canada Soccer has set up pods of 1/2/3/4.

The South side is pods of 2 or 4 only.

Thanks for all the info everyone.  Much appreciated!

My kids demanded to be in the Vs section. So we did two sets of two at the top.

Thanks again.

Can't wait!!

Yeah, you can buy two twice.  You just get Ticketmastered when you do.  They make you pay the order fee twice.

Interesting. 

I didn't see the seating map until this morning.

I was surprised it was so many 2's. 

They have a lot of space in the rest of the stadium to spread out and have a wider selection of seating pods.

If you added singles to our area, we would have lost seats I think.

Yes, buy a pair then go back in and buy a 2nd pair.

Yeaaahh got Ticketmastered for Honduras but whatever still cheaper then anywhere else is stadium plus get to sit with the V family!!! 

Thanks for much for everyone involved setting this up. 

Over the moon right now.

I was able to get a single in 111 in the last row of the aisle on the rail across from 112. I believe its because there are an uneven amount of seats in the row.

That, and they have more space to move into before they hit the 15K limit.

I didn't go through the Voyageurs, but I got tickets through a pre-sale this morning. As per usual, the ticketmaster site could use some improvements. Before I got to see the seating map it asked me what I was going for, I interpreted it as 1, 2, 3, or 4 tickets. I selected 3 and that took me to the seating map with "3 tickets" pre-selected that I couldn't change. I clicked on the section I was interested in and I see all these groups of 2 and 4, no 3's. Not sure where the 3's were, it would be nice if you could be shown that without having to scan the whole stadium. Couldn't even look for tickets based on price like you used to be able to do (unless I missed that somewhere). So I tried to pick 3 out of a group of 4 (it made me individually click each seat) but then it wouldn't let me buy them because you need to take all 4. I ended up just getting 4, I should be able to find another person to come along.

A bit frustrating when dealing with Ticketmaster, but I've got the tickets and I'm pumped up! 16 more sleeps to game 1!

I think, to be fair, the system was just never really built for this.

Definitely got Ticketmastered! 

Would have rathered that money go to the Vs but for now just thrilled to be seeing a game in person again.

Curious.  Any chance there will be Vs merch available before the game? 

Appollogies I imagine the logistics of everything is pretty chaotic at this point and don't want to add to it. But had to ask. A lot of our older stuff is looking well worn or getting pretty small.  Would be great to get some new gear.

Many thanks for all that you are doing for us!!!

In dividing the seats into blocks for distancing, I wonder if it works out perfectly that if they sell every seat available, that's the 15,000 capacity limit, or did they just divide seats into groups of 1, 2, 3, or 4, and whenever they reach 15,000 sold, they'll just stop.

Most places I have contacted for a pre game would rather set their place on fire than see us there it seems.  That might change, and once ticketing settles we'll go knock on some doors.  

Without knowing if these games were even going to be on it was too risky to order a pile of merchandise that could sit there till.... well, let's say years.

We will have something set up. It could be a pre game, it could be a table at the bottom of Atlantic.

We'll know soon.

That is an interesting question.  I have not looked closely at the rest of the stadium.  It would maximize the cost, as you would need x ushers and security per section.  But if 15k distanced stretched into all the sections anyway, then that would be a sensible way to do it.

I read that as "it could be a table at the bottom of the Atlantic (Ocean)" and was momentarily very confused.

Holy crap, is that new?  I would expect a SWAT team to show up to a tailgate in Ontario

Does that apply to the Ex grounds?  Things get weird there.

Aren't outdoor events limited to 100 right now?

What about that Acqua Dolce place we used a few years ago, on the Exhibition grounds, southwest of the stadium (south of the ampitheatre). That worked well I thought. Not sure how much it cost.

Though perhaps only a post-covid option.

[EJsens1]

I saw this today.  It mentions MLSE manages BMO.  I wonder if this will apply.  I’m double vaxxed and applaud it but could be issues for some and getting a test done

Not sure how it would work with covid limits but its likely the biggest place you could do.

I haven't looked yet, but I think there is still a 100 person limit on outdoor events.  I also wonder if anyone has pulled this off on the Ex.  I'll ask RPB. If anyone has, it is them.
