Amalie Arena Overview
Amalie Arena is an indoor multipurpose arena located in Tampa, FL. The facility was opened in 1996 and was previously known as the Ice Palace. The arena’s naming rights were sold in August 2002 to the St. Petersburg Times. Accordingly, the facility was known as the St. Pete Times Forum from 2002 to 2012 and Tampa Bay Times Forum from 2012 to 2014.
The Amalie Arena is primarily the home venue of the Tampa Bay Lightning. Aside from ice hockey, the arena plays host to a wide range of other events, including professional wrestling, basketball, concerts, arena football, and stand stand-up comedy shows. The arena’s innovative design provides 20,500 seats for basketball games, 19,092 seats for NHL games, as well as 21,500 seats for concerts.
The Amalie Arena features a lot of outdoor patio and seating area, which is unique compared to all other hockey arenas in the league which are too cold most of the year. You can sit on the patio overlooking the Tampa Bay during intermission at the Lightning game.

How to Get Cheap Tampa Bay Lightning Tickets
Ticketmaster
Ticketmaster is the largest official ticket outlet in Canada and the United States for sports tickets. Every single team in every league has partnered with Ticketmaster to sell tickets to their games safely and securely.
One nice thing about Ticketmaster is that they also have third-party verified tickets available from season ticket holders. Season ticket holders can post their tickets directly to Ticketmaster for a small fee, who then sells them to fans who missed out on first-party tickets. This means you can be sure you are getting secure tickets.
The only downside to Ticketmaster is that the fees attached to its ticket sales are pretty high compared to some of the other third-party ticket sites. You may not get the cheapest Lightning tickets, but you know the tickets will be secure and legitimate.
StubHub
StubHub is our favorite third-party ticket setting website for buying cheap tickets to sporting events. Most sports leagues have a third party partnership with StubHub to sell and advertise tickets for their games. StubHub has the largest selection of resale tickets available for events, which often pushes the cost down below face value.
StubHub will show you if the ticket listed is a reasonable price or not compared to the average price and the location of the seat.
StubHub also has a rewards program that you can join. You earn credits through purchasing tickets, and once you earn enough credits, you can apply these to your purchase for even cheaper tickets.
All tickets purchased through StubHub are 100% guaranteed, so you can be sure you are getting safe and legitimate tickets. I highly recommend checking out StubHub for cheap Tampa Bay Lightning tickets.
GameTime
One of the most recent and best ways I have found cheap Lightning tickets is through Gametime. Gametime is known for last-minute ticket deals for every single professional sport. These tickets are 100% guaranteed through Gametime and are often the cheapest tickets you will find last minute.
Gametime works with teams and venues to get blocks of unsold tickets, which they advertise as last-minute deals. It allows Gametime to offer cheap prices and low fees by selling tickets that would otherwise go unsold.
If you don’t need to plan ahead, I highly recommend waiting last minute to buy your tickets. If you wait until the day of and even a few hours before the game starts, very cheap tickets will be available. They are delivered to your smartphone almost instantly and offer event cancellation protection should the event not go as planned.
Gametime is a top pick for finding the cheapest Tampa Bay Lightning tickets.
How Much are Tampa Bay Lightning Tickets?
The average ticket price to a Tampa Bay Lightning hockey game is about $60 per ticket. This is below average compared to the rest of the league, despite Tampa Bay having success over the past decade. Low ticket prices are due to the warm climate and overall lack of hockey interest in the area.
There are a number of ways to purchase tickets for Tampa Bay Lightning games, including through the team’s official website, through ticket brokers or resellers, or through the box office at Amalie Arena, where the team plays its home games. It may be helpful to compare prices from a variety of sources and to consider purchasing tickets in advance to get the best possible price.
Cheap Tampa Bay Lightning Parking Near Amalie Arena
After you buy your cheap tickets, make sure you save money on parking by Amalie Arena too. By buying in advance from SpotHero, you can save a lot of money. Parking on Tampa Bay Lightning game-day or an Uber can cost you over $40 or more in Tampa, but you’ll find parking in the links below for as cheap as $5.
Select your event using the widget below and browse cheap Amalie Arena parking now.
Cheap Tampa Bay Lightning Away Game Tickets
If you want to see the Lightning for cheaper, there are not a lot of driving options. The Florida Panthers are a relatively short drive away in Miami. Other than them, the closest team is the Carolina Hurricanes in Raleigh.

When Do Tampa Bay Lightning Tickets Go on Sale?
The Tampa Bay Lightning typically release their schedule for the upcoming season in the summer, and tickets for individual games typically go on sale at that time. The exact date that tickets go on sale can vary from year to year, so it is a good idea to check the team’s official website or social media accounts for updates. It may be helpful to compare prices and seating options from a variety of sources to find the best deal on tickets.
Keep in mind that popular games and seating areas may sell out quickly, so it may be a good idea to purchase tickets as soon as they become available if you are interested in attending a specific game.
Tips for Buying Tampa Bay Lightning Tickets
Want more tips for buying cheap Lightning tickets? Check out these other ideas to consider.
Go to weekday games
Heading to games that aren’t on a Friday or Saturday will be cheaper due to supply and demand. Most people planning trips to watch their favorite team will arrange to see them on the weekend. This means that weekend games will be much more expensive than games during the week.
People may also not want to be out late on a weekday because they have work or other things to do the next day. Buy cheaper Tampa Bay Lightning tickets during the week.
Skip games against rivals
Games against rival divisional teams will be way more expensive than any other game. Also, games against Canadian teams are often higher in price because these teams have big, distributed fan bases.
If you choose a game against a US non-divisional team during the weekday, you will find the cheapest tickets.
Avoid advance sales
Most NHL teams will offer advance sales once the schedule is released for fans who can’t wait to purchase their tickets. Advance sales will come with a higher cost for tickets.
Yes, you are getting your tickets guaranteed right away, but they will be much more expensive than if you were to wait closer to the game.
With travel plans, this may not always be possible, but something for you to keep an eye on.
Buy tickets the day of the game
Waiting until game day and purchasing tickets on Gametime will be the best way to get the cheapest tickets to a hockey game. When it gets closer to the game, sellers are more desperate to get any money for their tickets, which means they will list them lower than they usually would.
Take advantage of these sellers!
The biggest drawback is that you might not be able to wait. If you are travelling from out of town, you want to secure your tickets early. And if the game is sold out, there will be nothing on Gametime to purchase!
Other Things To Do In Tampa Bay
Visit the Busch Gardens Theme Park
The Busch Gardens Theme Park opened in 1959 and predates Walt Disney World. It offers a wild animal exhibits and full amusement park with wild roller coasters, tempting food, and great shows. It has lush landscaping and lovely gardens.
When you arrive, make sure you take a dive on the SheiKra. It is a rollercoaster that lifts you up 200 feet in a floorless car before dangling you over the edge at 90 degrees! You can also go on the Prowl with Cheetah Hunt to enjoy a giddy experience. Riding on the coaster will make you feel as if you are racing against speedy animals.
Walk the Tampa Riverwalk
Walking the Tampa Riverwalk is one of the best things to do if you are in the Tampa Bay area. The site is home to waterfront dining options, fun festivals, museums, and lots of other fun activities. You can walk or ride the river on a water bike or kayak. You will enjoy the views of the downtown Tampa skyline as you pedal down the river. You can also cruise the Tampa Riverwalk by electronic scooter or bicycle.
The Tampa Riverwalk hosts lots of bike share rental kiosks, so you can rent a bike for the day or by the hour. If you love scooting, then you can hire an electric scooter to cruise around the Tampa Riverwalk. Amalie Arena is right nearby, so you will be close to the game.
Explore Clearwater Beach
Clearwater beach is your best bet if you love hanging out or relaxing beside the beach. On or before game time, you can take a ride to a Clearwater beach to feel the gulf breeze, watch the waters, and feel the white sand. As you relax close to the beach, you get to see beautiful marine life.
The site hosts clever pelicans, slippery eels, cute sea turtles, humorous otters, intimidating rays, and other water wildlife. Thankfully, many of these are kid-friendly for touching.
