The package adds another USD 1,460 to the costs per room (plus USD 1,560 for two persons), and includes transport to/from the hotel and arena.
Without the budget to buy a Premium Package, it is going to be hard to grab a ticket for the NBA All-Star main events such as the Slam Dunk Contest, the Three-Point Contest, the Skills Challenge, and of course the All-Star Game 2019.
Tickets for Hornets supporters
Most of the tickets will be distributed to sponsors, media partners, NBA affiliates, businesses, and the Hornets. In order to give all the season pass holders a fair chance, the Hornets conducted a lottery for the tickets for the NBA All-Star Event 2019 in Charlotte.
Stay tuned for more information about tickets available on the aftermarket. We will update this post with information regarding availability and pricing. Though, expect tickets to be expensive.
