2021 MLB Playoffs: How and where to buy tickets for the Astros-Braves World Series?
The World Series will get underway on Tuesday, October 26 with Game 1. The opening game of the series and Game 2 will be held at Minute Maid Park. If necessary, Games 6 and 7 will be also held in Houston.
Atlanta, on the other hand, will host Games 4, 5, and 6 (if necessary) at Truist Park. Each fanbase has its reasons to want to support their teams and attend its home games, so here we'll tell you how they can get tickets.
Tickets for games in Houston
First, tickets for the Astros home games will be very limited, according to the team's website. A press release from the franchise stated that fans who acquire 2022 season tickets can have access to World Series tickets. Ticket information is available at www.astros.com/postseason.
Fans may also opt to visit the secondary markets, but be ready for some mind-blowing prices if you do so. Resale tickets fluctuate constantly depending on demand and supply. In Stub Hub, tickets for Game 1 start at $420 but they can go as high as $2,500. In SeatGeek, the cheapest tickets cost nearly $430, while the most expensive seats exceed the $4,000.
Tickets for games in Atlanta
For the games in Atlanta, on the other hand, single-game tickets for the general public will be released on Tuesday, October 26, at 10 AM (ET) at www.braves.com/postseason. The team, however, has also announced that they'd be a very limited inventory of those tickets.
It remains to be seen how many tickets will be available as the Braves have already begun to email presale codes to A-List Members, who purchased 2022 A-List season ticket memberships, and Brave Insiders, who signed up to the Braves' email list. The presale began on Monday, Oct. 26, and will close on Tuesday, Oct. 27, at 9 AM (ET).
Tickets in Stub Hub for Game 3 at Truist Park start from $924 and can go well north by exceeding the $5,700, while in SeatGeek, the cheapest ticket costs $791 and the most expensive seats are at $11,900.
