How to get 2009 NBA All-Star Game Tickets

Kevin Smith
The 2009 NBA All-Star game is set, and will take place at the US Airways Center in Phoenix, Arizona. If there is a high profile event that can be difficult to get tickets to, the NBA All-Star weekend is one of them. Fortunately, there are multiple resources out there for purchasing tickets to the many different events going on at the 2009 All-Star weekend. As usual you are able to purchase tickets at the venues box office which is the US Airways Center in Phoenix, AZ for the 2009 season. Tickets to the actual NBA All-Star game are only available online. There are many ticket brokering websites such as findticketsfast.com that are selling tickets to the many different events going on during the 2009 NBA All-Star weekend. There also auction sites that have offers for tickets to the many events. The point is that those who have a will to attend, have a way to do it.

If you try to research NBA.com for tickets to the 2009 NBA All-Star game, you'll find that the game itself, as well as the NBA All-Star Saturday night events are not open to the general public. You'll find that tickets to the actual All-Star game and the NBA All-Star Saturday night are used by the NBA for their guests, including players, teams, partners, etc. With that said, tickets are being sold for the game and the Saturday night events all over the Internet. So here is a guide to buying tickets to the 2009 NBA All-Star game and all events for the 2009 NBA All-Star weekend.

The US Airways Center

This is where the NBA All-Star weekend events will be held at. Here you'll be able to buy tickets for the NBA Celebrity All-Star game, the T-Mobile Rookie Challenge, and the NBA youth jam.

Ticketmaster

As usual, tickets can be purchased at Ticketmaster.com or at any Ticketmaster outlet. The only tickets that are actually available on Ticketmaster.com itself are tickets to the celebrity All-Star game, but other Ticketmaster outlets such as ticketsnow.com have tickets available for the other events. Physical Ticketmaster outlets may have tickets available for other NBA All-Star weekend events

Findticketsfast.com

It would be easiest to advise you to do a google search for tickets online where there are dozens of ticket providers, but having already done some research on this I found findticketsfast.com which probably has the most variety of tickets available for the 2009 NBA All-Star weekend events. At this web site you can find tickets to the NBA All-Star celebrity game, the NBA All-Star rookie game, the NBA All-Star Saturday night events, the NBA All-Star practice, and the NBA All-Star game. Findticketsfast.com is pretty much your one-stop shop for NBA All-Star weekend tickets online.

EBay.com

Everyone knows that if you can't find tickets the traditional way, you can most certainly find someone selling tickets on eBay. The 2009 NBA All-Star game is no exception. On eBay tickets are being sold for the 2009 NBA All-Star game, the NBA All-Star practice, the NBA All-Star Saturday night events, and the NBA All-Star rookie challenge. People will be selling tickets on eBay all the way up to the last-minute.

Craigslist

Craigslist is more so for last-minute tickets. Whenever there is an event going on especially as high profile as the 2009 NBA All-Star game, people use Craigslist to get rid of extra tickets, and tickets that they are not able to use. The likeliness of the finding tickets are Craigslist ahead of time are slim to none. The good thing about Craigslist in most cases, is that you can negotiate a price with the seller.

Tickets to the 2009 NBA All-Star game and all of the All-Star weekend events can be found in various places. Tickets can be found more so on the Internet than at physical locations such as Ticketmaster and the US Airways center box office. Online tickets can be purchased at Ticketmaster.com and any of its outlets, findfasttickets.com which is like a one-stop shop for tickets to the NBA All-Star weekend, eBay, and Craigslist for last-minute tickets. Ticket prices are inflated for the NBA All-Star weekend as usual, but with all of the various NBA superstars coming together for one venue it is definitely worth it.
