ICEHOGS MOBILE TICKETING
HOW DO I GET MY MOBILE TICKET(S)?
You can access your tickets through the Rockford IceHogs mobile app, which can be downloaded for free in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. Fans can purchase and access their tickets through the IceHogs Ticket Manager on the app. Download the App Here!
Don't forget to charge your phone battery before heading to the arena, and we strongly recommend adding your ticket(s) to your phone's digital wallet before arrival to avoid any connectivity issues upon entry!
BUT I PURCHASED MY TICKETS FROM TICKETMASTER… CAN I STILL ACCESS THEM THROUGH THE ICEHOGS APP?
Yes! You can link your IceHogs Account Manager or Ticketmaster account with the IceHogs mobile app to centrally manage your tickets alongside other gameday experiences and guides. Alternately, you can access your IceHogs Account Manager or Ticketmaster via your mobile web browser.
WILL A SCREENSHOT OF MY TICKET WORK TO ENTER THE BMO HARRIS BANK CENTER?
No. Mobile tickets will feature a rotating barcode when opened through the IceHogs mobile app or emit a signal if opened through your device's digital wallet. As a result, screenshots will not work for entry into the arena.
CAN I HAVE MULTIPLE TICKETS ON A SINGLE PHONE?
Yes. Once you tap on the desired game, you will be able to swipe through your available tickets.
Don't forget, your entire party needs to enter at the same time if you choose to keep all tickets on one phone. We recommend transferring each person in your party their own ticket to streamline entry at the gates.
HOW DO I TRANSFER TICKETS TO FAMILY AND FRIENDS ATTENDING THE GAME?
The process for transferring tickets through the IceHogs app and through Ticketmaster has not changed, but recipients are now required to present their ticket on a mobile device for entry. Make sure to communicate in advance with your intended recipient to make sure they have a smartphone device and that you know the email address associated with their Ticketmaster account to accept and view tickets.
A reminder that screenshots are not an approved method for the transfer of tickets and will not work for entry into the BMO Harris Bank Center.
WHAT IF I DO NOT HAVE A SMARTPHONE OR NEED HELP ON GAMEDAY DUE TO ISSUES WITH MY MOBILE DEVICE?
If you have purchased tickets and do not have access to a smartphone, please contact the IceHogs Ticketing Team in advance at rkrause@blackhawks.com or with your Ticketmaster confirmation number for assistance.
If you are having trouble with your device, we encourage you to visit the BMO Harris Bank Center Box Office on gameday. Please have a valid ID for the name on the account.
