This initial release of tickets relates to home games at The SSE Arena, Belfast in October 2021 only.

Commenting on the announcement, Adrian Doyle, Director of Experience Operations for The Odyssey Trust, owners of the Belfast Giants said: “If the continued easing of restrictions allows, we are confident that our planning – backed by our Covid entry requirements, risk assessments and our ventilation systems – will ensure the safe return of hockey fans to the Arena, at these capacities.”
