When it was revealed in December that if the United States Men’s National Team won Group D, it would play on July 1 at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif., the get-in price was in the $700 range, where it remained until the last few weeks.
Now that the USMNT has won Group D, it will cost more than $3,000 for a ticket to the round-of-32 match, per TicketData.com, as millions of Americans have jumped on the bandwagon, hopeful of a historic run on home soil.
For round-of-16 and quarterfinal matches, get-in prices have also soared over $3,000 for matches that the Americans could play in if they advance to those rounds.
Meanwhile, ticket prices for the U.S.-Turkey Group D finale match, which does not mean anything for either team, are dipping. The prices began to fall on Friday night, when Paraguay defeated Turkey.
Paraguay’s win secured the Group D title for the U.S. team, lowering the get-in price from more than $2,000 on Friday morning to less than $1,400 a day later, according to TicketData.com. The U.S. plays Turkey on Thursday night at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Calif.
FIFA’s official resale platform posted Category tickets at $1,150, which is higher than the original price, but well below any tickets listed for that match earlier this week.
StubHub ($3,393 including fees), SeatGeek ($3,209) and FIFA’s ticket platform saw significant increases in prices for the U.S. round-of-32 match in Santa Clara as of Saturday morning, which had been around $2,000 earlier this week.
The U.S. could play Bosnia and Herzegovina, who take on Qatar on Wednesday on the final day of Group B play. If that match is a draw, it is unclear who the U.S. will face on July 1.
