No more tickets available for Leeds Chiefs’ Elland Road opener
Rink owners Planet Ice released 500 tickets for the game against Sheffield Steeldogs a month ago, with them all being snapped up within 24 hours.
Planet Ice initially said they hoped to release more tickets nearer the time of the fixture but yesterday announced that would now not be the case.

A statement on the club’s social media channels, said: “Planet Ice Leeds are only days away from opening the doors. We can confirm that there will be no more tickets available for the Chiefs first home game on Elland Road this Friday.
“Tickets for February home fixtures will be released in the coming days.”
After tomorrow’s Yorkshire derby, the Chiefs will have 11 home fixtures remaining.
