After a busy start to the year and so many huge events to come in 2023, the team at SlotsOnlineCanada.com wanted to delve deeper into ticket prices at the biggest showpieces in sports.
Check out the findings below…
Top Sporting Events
Results showed that the most expensive event by almost double was the Super Bowl back in February, which saw the Kansas City Chiefs defeat the Philadelphia Eagles. The biggest sporting event in North America cost $9,378 for an average ticket at State Farm Stadium in Arizona.
Remarkably, the UFC 286 event in London came second, with average prices at $4,460. This cost is likely to come as a surprise to US fans, who often pay a fraction of the cost that UK punters face in order to watch the Octagon action.
The first Golf Major arrives in April in the shape of The Masters. For golf fans wanting to spend the full four days at Augusta National, it will cost you $2,650 to see Scottie Scheffler attempt to defend his green jacket.
Formula 1 makes its first appearance of the season in the US in May, but it’s the Canadian Grand Prix which will set you back the most at a cost of $2,332 for a full weekend ticket.
Meanwhile, tickets to this year’s electrifying WrestleMania come in at a whopping $1,028 for wrestling fanatics wanting to attend both days of the biggest event in sports entertainment. This was more than the average price of tickets combined for both the Anthony Joshua vs Jermaine Franklin and David Benavidez vs Caleb Plant fights.
The NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament (AKA March Madness) tips off in the middle of March and as the tournament progresses and tensions rise, so do the ticket prices. Tickets to a Final 4 game were found to be an average of over $500.
Rounding off the ticketing prices in the tennis world, Wimbledon is the place to be seen for a social occasion in the United Kingdom. Finals weekend average prices were $308, just over $50 more than the US Open at Flushing Meadows.
