Season tickets in Dallas are now on a waitlist only basis for the upcoming season.

For the first time in over 20 years, the Dallas Stars have completely sold out of season tickets for the upcoming season.

After making two Western Conference Finals appearances in a row, the hype around the Stars has reached a point that hasn't been matched since winning the Stanley Cup in 1999, and maybe not even then. Victory Club memberships have reached capacity from top to bottom in the American Airlines Center, and any fans looking to get their membership now have to go on the waitlist.

The Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex has seen unprecedented success across almost all sports over the past year, starting with the Texas Rangers winning the World Series in November and continuing into basketball and hockey season. The Stars fell just short of making the Stanley Cup Final, while the Dallas Mavericks made it to the NBA Finals but lost in five games to the Boston Celtics.

During the 2023-24 season, the Stars averaged 18,532 fans, equivalent to 100 percent capacity over the regular season. In the chart below, the number of sellouts increased significantly from the previous season, marking the highest change in the entire league. Dallas had 14 more than the previous year through March 31 of the regular season.

Add another successful playoff run, and demand quickly overtook supply. Last year, memberships in the lower level of the American Airlines Center were sold out, but this year, the whole building's Victory Club membership quota will be completely filled.

This is a far cry from the situation just over a decade ago, after Mike Modano, Sergei Zubov and Jere Lehtinen had ended their careers with Dallas and before Jamie Benn and Tyler Seguin fully entered the conversation. There were years of bankruptcy from ownership, and a few seasons where only the most loyal fans remained season ticket holders. Partial plans even had tickets as low as $9 to attract anyone and everyone to become a hockey fan again.

Then came current owner Tom Gaglardi, the victory green sweaters the team still dons to this day, and a newfound excitement for the players and the team overall. A few years of success combined with a few years of falling below expectations turned into a much more steady rate of winning, and more and more playoff series victories. Now, the final goal of making it to and winning another Stanley Cup is the last hurdle for the current state of the franchise to achieve.

Stars fans might remember the days of snagging a cheap ticket to a game here and there, and while those chances may still exist on the secondary market, they are few and far between now. With success comes the premium of ticket prices going up and supply going down.

For Stars fans still looking to snag tickets, individual game tickets are expected to go on sale closer to the beginning of the season. Teams cap their season ticket allotment under the building's capacity by a certain amount to allow for fans with less opportunity to still get a chance to see a game.
