Tickets still available for Stars on Ice Holiday Tour

Tourism Sarnia-Lambton is hoping for a last minute boost in ticket sales for the Stars on Ice Tour this Saturday.

Executive Director Mark Perrin said sales have been a bit slower than hoped.

"Ticket sales are going alright, [they're] a little bit lower than we'd like to be," Perrin said. "But, we know [sales] the week of [the event] typically [increase] and we're looking forward to a great event now that the winter weather is here, snow is in the air and holidays are on everyone's mind."

Perrin admits having the event conflict with Sarnia's Santa Claus parade has been tricky.

"The date, obviously, is part of a national schedule so we had to pick from what was available. This is a year in the making. Last year they wanted to come and we just couldn't make it work between the schedules at the arena and we put the date in the calendar a year ago and it just so happens that it is on the same date as the Santa Claus parade."

Perrin said Elvis Stojko is headlining the show at Progressive Auto Sales Arena.

"He's a two-time Olympic silver medalist, three-time world champion, and seven-time Canadian champion. [He's] bringing a star-studded cast with him as well; Kaetlyn Osmond, Kaitlyn Weaver, Andrew Poje, the list goes on and on of great skaters that are coming and being part of this holiday tour," he said.

Tickets for the 7 p.m. show start at $39.99 for children 12 and under and $59.99 for adults.

They can be purchased through the Sarnia Sting Box Office or at starsonice.ca.

"I think it's been 10 years since the last [professional] figure skating show [in Sarnia]. So, we want to put our best foot forward and give a good crowd for Sarnia and see what else we can make happen in the future," Perrin said.
