Packers will raise ticket prices for 2015 season

The Green Bay Packers announced plans for a price increase on stadium bowl tickets for the 2015 season. The increase will range from $3 to $5, depending on seat location in the general seating area.

Invoices sent to season ticket holders this week included a brochure from the Packers which outlined the new pricing, previewed next season's home opponents and related events, as well as updated season ticket holders about the Lambeau Field Atrium renovation. Packers President/CEO Mark Murphy discussed the pricing for the 2015 season in the mailing.

“We project this increase will place us 18th in average ticket price, which is just below the NFL average,” Murphy said in the brochure. “We use that benchmark each year to help us determine pricing so we maintain great value for season ticket holders and provide a fair share to our partner teams.”

With the $3 to $5 increase, tickets in respective areas in 2015 will cost:

•         End zone seats – $80 (increase of $3)

•         South end zone, 700 Level – $89 (increase of $4)

•         End zone to the 20-yard line – $92 (increase of $4)

•         South end zone, 600 Level – $96 (increase of $4)

•         Between the 20-yard lines – $105 (increase of $5)

Payment is due in the Packers' ticket office March 31.

Comparatively speaking around the NFC North for the 2014 season, the best sideline seat for the Bears was $200, Vikings $161 and Lions $195.

Additionally, Lambeau Field suite tickets in 2015 also will increase $5 to $105. Lease rates for suites and club-seat ticket prices are set per client contracts, with invoices also mailed this week.
