The Edmonton Oilers have called Rexall Place home since 1974. Rexall Place has a seating capacity of over 16,000 fans. However, since ice hockey is a very popular sport in Canada and the fans are very dedicated to their team, Edmonton Oilers games at Rexall Place may sell out very quickly. Edmonton Oilers tickets should therefore be purchased as far in advance as possible if you do not hold season tickets. Our site is a convenient place to buy Oilers tickets, which are available in a range of prices that nearly every fan can afford.
