The Most Exclusive & Expensive Tickets In Sports

If you are looking to spend big, these are the tickets to do it. Here are some of the hottest and most expensive event tickets in the world, and what you actually get for the price tag.
There are certain elite tickets that are not available to your average attendee due to their hefty price tag, as well as some pretty exclusive event experiences too. We have compiled a list of some of the most outlandish and interesting event tickets which demand top dollar across the globe. Here is a glimpse of how the other half live and if it is actually good value for money, as well as some of the more “accessible” high end luxury events you could attend!

Abu Dhabi Grand Prix

Price: $7,270
What You Get: 
One of the most expensive races in the yearly grand prix calendar the hill general admission starts at around $280 and that allows you to see just the screens. For a standard grandstand 3 day admission you are looking at around $560. However, if you are looking for the best experience and views (and the highest cost!) you can enjoy the Red Bull Paddock Club for the full three days for the price of $7,270 per ticket and this gives you:
  • Exclusive access to the VIP and Pit lanes
  • Prime viewing area for the race
  • Morning tea, lunch and wines
  • Exclusive access to the Formula One Paddock Club
  • Open bar and champagne
  • Entertainment
And they will even throw in an official program and some ear plugs too!

These tickets are highly exclusive and not readily available on the open market. If you are interested in going to the Grand Prix please email me (Larry) to learn how to get them.

The Masters

Price: $7,140
What You Get: 
One of the major tournaments in professional golf is held each year in April at Augusta National Golf Club, Georgia. The US Masters is the first of four major championships held throughout the year. Tickets are limited and particularly difficult to get hold of each year and the box office very quickly sells out but there are two ticketing options available, badges which are rented for the required days and then returned to their owners after the event or single day tickets which are purchased in a similar way to usual tickets. This is a four-day event (with an additional two practice days) and prices for tickets are as follows:
  • Monday/Tuesday Practice = Start at $600 per day and gets you in the grounds
  • Thursday – Sunday Competition tickets -  $1,800 and upwards (per day) which grants grounds access.
  • 4 Day Competition Seated Tickets - $6,000 - $7,296 (depending on seats)

Super Bowl


Price: $11,000
What You Get:
The annual American football championship that decides the winners of the NFL season is one of the largest sporting events and has culminated as a tradition and part of culture for much of the US. With performances, massive sponsors, celebrity fans and endorsements and plenty of hype, it is no wonder these tickets can be expensive. This year’s Super Bowl tickets had nothing selling below $2,400 per seat and the pricing looked like this:
  • The “cheaper” standard seats and ticket in the Upper End Zone - $2,500
  • Upper Level Side Lines - $3,000 and up
  • Club Level Corner - $4,600 (and up)
  • Premium Club Level - $9,000
For the big packages and premium seats however you are looking at around $11,000 a ticket and above, which also includes VIP passes to pre and post-game parties as well as appearances from NFL alumni and a smaller capacity area for a more intimate setting to watch the game.
There are no NFL games on the schedule, but be sure we ill email you when there are and let you know about tickets.

Olympic Opening Ceremony Tokyo 2020

Price: $1,400
What You Get: 
The Olympics is a global sporting event that doesn’t need much introduction and while tickets can be difficult to get a hold of, on the whole the organizers try to make the sporting spectator tickets fairly affordable to the masses. With Tokyo winning the 2020 bid an insight into ticket prices looks to be fair at around $40 - $60 per ticket for certain events (not including travel or accommodation costs of course) but it will be the opening ceremony that is costly. As all participants are showcased and parade the best seats for the Tokyo opening ceremony are looking at around 20 times the usual ticket price, at $1,400. Of course this event only comes once every four years and the opening ceremony tends to be a once in a lifetime experience.

These tickets are highly exclusive and not readily available on the open market. If you are interested in going to the 2020 Olympics please email me (Larry) to learn how to get them.

NBA Finals

What You Get:
The National Basketball Association in the US hosts a national league and this culminates to a large annual sporting event for the finals that occurs in June in a best-of-seven situation. These tickets tend to get more expensive as time goes on and each game is played, particularly if favourite rivalries are set to appear against one another. Previous finals have seen prices increase but on average attendees will be looking to pay this per ticket:
  • Game 1, 2, 5 and 6 - $1,500
  • Game 3, 4 - $ 1,300
  • Game 7 - $2,800
Depending on the teams that make the final, the situation and venue, the ticket price can fluctuate but for game 7, which in some cases is the deciding game, prices can skyrocket.
