The Columbus Blue Jackets joined the NHL as an expansion franchise in 2000, bringing big-league hockey to Ohio's capital city. Nationwide Arena, a 19,500-seat downtown venue, opened the same year and has hosted some of the loudest crowds in NHL history during Columbus playoff runs. The Blue Jackets' cannon — fired after every goal and goal song — is one of the most distinctive traditions in the league. The team's 2019 playoff first round sweep of the Tampa Bay Lightning (who had set a regular-season points record) stands as one of the biggest upsets in NHL history. Columbus has cultivated a loyal Midwestern fan base that packs the arena in red, navy, and gold. The Blue Jackets are central to the growth of hockey in a non-traditional American market.
How to Find Cheap Columbus Blue Jackets Tickets
The cheapest Blue Jackets tickets typically appear on weeknight non-rivalry games — Mondays and Tuesdays against non-conference opponents move at the steepest discount. Upper-bowl and end-zone seats are 40-70% cheaper than centerline lower-bowl, with comparable views of the action. Check the AllSports listing close to game day too — prices can drop in the final 48 hours when more seats release.
Avoid the markup trap: compare AllSports listings by section, opponent, and game date before you buy. Mid-bowl 200-level seats are the sweet spot for budget-conscious fans — strong sightlines, half the price of premium club seats.

Rivalry-game inventory at Nationwide Arena routinely clears 60-90 days before the first whistle, with the steepest price jumps on the lower bowl. If a rivalry date is on your wishlist, lock in tickets as soon as the schedule is released — waiting until game week often costs 2-3x the early-onsale price.
