Prices for Chiefs divisional round tickets have soared since 2018

The #Chiefs have played in the AFC divisional round each year during the Patrick Mahomes era and average ticket prices on the secondary market have more than tripled in that span.

If you’re looking to head to GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium for the AFC divisional round matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and Jacksonville Jaguars, you’ll be paying a pretty penny.

According to TicketIQ’s Jesse Lawrence, the average price on the secondary market for a ticket to the Chiefs-Jaguars divisional round game is $484. That number is actually the lowest mark of any NFL divisional-round game this year, but it also marks the most expensive divisional-round game for Kansas City during the Patrick Mahomes era. That doesn’t include the 2020 game against the Browns, which was played with reduced capacity due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

In the 2018-19 divisional round game against the Indianapolis Colts, the tickets averaged a list price of just $150. They’ve more than tripled in price since that point. In 2019-20 against the Houston Texans, the average list price was $349. Against the Buffalo Bills in 2021-22, it was up to $361.

TicketIQ says the least expensive tickets for this upcoming game between K.C. and Jacksonville are listed at $197, which is also the most expensive get-in price for a Chiefs divisional-round game since they began tracking them. The highest-priced tickets currently listed on the secondary market exceed $3,400, with some of the highest prices located in the midfield area in sections 101, 102, 136, 120, 119 and 118.

This will be the fifth time the Chiefs are hosting a divisional round game in the Patrick Mahomes era and it is at least 34% more expensive than any of the previous four divisional round games. If the wave of success in Kansas City continues, you can only expect the prices to rise.
