World Series ticket prices for every game

The World Series is a best-of-seven series at the end of the baseball season, in late October and early November. This page tracks resale prices for every World Series game that is listed and how prices have moved over the last 30 days.

World Series listings usually open during the postseason in October.

Prices, listings and the daily price history show here automatically as soon as World Series listings appear.

How much are World Series tickets?

No World Series listings are tracked right now, so there is no current price. Prices appear on this page as soon as listings do, with the full 30-day history from then on.

Where to find the cheapest World Series tickets

Upper deck seats in the outfield corners and games 1 and 2 are usually the cheapest. Games 5 to 7 can list lower because they may never be played.

When do World Series tickets go on sale?

Each team puts its home games on sale once it reaches the series, often during the league championship series, with season ticket holders first. Resale listings follow within hours.

How World Series tickets are sold

The two league champions sell World Series tickets for their own home games, usually to season ticket holders first and then to the public in small allocations. Most fans buy on the resale market, where listings appear as soon as a team reaches the series.

The World Series uses a 2-3-2 format. The team with the better regular season record hosts games 1, 2, 6 and 7; the other team hosts games 3, 4 and 5. Games 5, 6 and 7 are played only if needed.

What moves the price

Ballpark size has a large effect. A small ballpark has fewer seats to sell, so entry prices start higher than at a large one. A long title drought or a historic rivalry raises demand for both teams.

Within a series, the game where a team can clinch at home is the most sought after. A sweep removes the later games entirely, so listings for games 5 to 7 carry a discount for the risk that they are never played.

Reading the numbers on this page

Each row is one game with its cheapest and median listing before fees and the number of listings. Between seasons this page shows the latest listed games and fills again once the next postseason is set.
