So, you made it. You’re a UConn, Miami, or San Diego State fan who had high hopes at the beginning of the NCAA Tournament, then saw them justified by impressive runs. Or maybe you’re an outright delusional FAU fan living out the final stages of a fever dream.
Either way, you’ve got your flights booked, hotels reserved, and you’re at the Final Four in Houston! Now, it’s time to reserve some tickets. Lucky you, because the college basketball obsessives of the world don’t seem to be quite as attached to your team as, say, Duke-UNC in New Orleans last year. Their loss is absolutely your gain.
March Madness Ticket Prices: How much does UConn, Miami, FAU, San Diego State Final Four cost?
According to SeatGeek, the get-in price for a Final Four strip good for all sessions — that’s both games Saturday and the Final on Monday — can be had for just $107 including fees. That’s for the “worst available” seat in the house, but remember — all seats are both good and bad at the Final Four. They’re all in the arena: Good! And they’re all atop a football stadium attempting to house a basketball game: Bad!
The get-in price for Saturday’s pair of games alone (UConn-Miami and FAU-SDSU) is a mere $73, while the Final will cost you only $64. These prices leave any fan plenty of wiggle room if they prefer to get closer/get wined-and-dined a little.
But, as noted above, if you’d rather pay the big bucks and watch some bigger names, interest is soaring in the Women’s Final Four in Dallas, featuring Iowa’s superstar Caitlin Clark and a seemingly-unbeatable South Carolina Gamecocks team (as Dawn Staley surely fights off NBA overtures). That’ll cost you $273 to get into the semis Friday and $661 for the full three-game strip. Incredible.
