Date Change: 2026 Skate America in Everett, WA; Salt Lake City for 2027 U.S. Nationals - info/planning thread

Did anyone buy Skate America tickets today in the FoFs presale?

I'm signed up for the USFS newsletter which they said would have a code for tomorrow's fan presale but haven't received a code yet - has anyone else received it?

Does anyone have any information on the Skate America arena set up - i.e., where the KnC and Judges stands are, any limited view seats to be aware of, etc?

I'm disappointed but not surprised about the lack of info about this event from USFS given FoF sales were supposed to begin today and newsletter subscriber sales are supposed to begin tomorrow.

I got my tickets in the FOFS presale. I got an email yesterday with the seating chart information so you should get one today for the presale tomorrow. The judges are behind 117-119 and Kiss and Cry is the 113 side. I snagged Sec 117 row 10 for $200 so not bad. Sec. 118 was blocked out.

I got an email from USFS with a code and a link to buy tickets. We were in section 118 row 9 (I can't remember but I think they were good seats) but from the previous post it looks like that section will be blocked this time. Everything else looks to be the same.
I also got an email from Angel of the Wind arena and it has a different code

This was one of the smoothest ticket-buying experiences.

I got a letter too. I noticed that nowhere in it does it say the date of the event. LOL (I was trying to see if I have a commitment that weekend and I couldn't remember the date.)

I got the email with the code too. And it's super weird that it doesn't mention the date of Skate America - especially since the date changed!

Hoping the hockey glass is taken down for the event. Bought tickets in section 119.

I got tickets! That was the easiest I can remember it being, it opened at the correct time and accepted the code.

I had originally thought of doing the combined Skate America + Skate Canada but with the date change, I'll only be doing Skate America. It feels like it's a very long time from now but I'm excited for it!

Unfortunately, I am putting on an event that weekend.

Oh and I can't afford it either.

Major events never have the glass up

Tickets purchased!

Major events never have the glass up

Because they take place in arenas with no ice surface until one is built.
