Eagles’ resale ticket prices up 179% from last year, 4th-most expensive in NFL

After returning to the Super Bowl, Philadelphia Eagles resale ticket prices are up 179% from last year, and are the 4th-most expensive in NFL

After being crowned NFC champions and losing 38-35 to the Chiefs in Super Bowl LVII, the Eagles are one of the hottest and most expensive tickets in town.

Philadelphia has an MVP candidate in Jalen Hurts, along with one of the NFL’s top skill groups and a retooled defense that’ll be among the league’s best.

With success comes more expensive tickets, and although the team hasn’t raised the prices, the resale market is making things expensive for fans to visit Lincoln Financial Field.

Touchdown Wire recently looked at the average ticket prices for every NFL team, listing the tickets priced from lowest to highest.

According to TicketSmarter, the average resale price of Eagles tickets is $523, which ranks as the 4th-most expensive in the NFL.

They’re among a dozen teams whose average resale price has increased from 2022 to this season, rising from $187 to $523 – an increase of 179%.

Only four NFL teams — the CardinalsBengalsRams, and 49ers — saw their average resale prices drop from the 2022 NFL season to the 2023 NFL season.

The other 28 NFL teams all saw increases ranging from gradual to astronomical.

The Birds’ $336 increase in their resale ticket prices from last season was good for the most significant jump in the NFL.

With new or renovated stadiums popping up all across the NFL over the past decade or two, it shouldn’t be a shock that fans are hit the hardest by increased ticket prices.

Star quarterbacks run the league and as ownership groups get more creative with increasing their overall revenue, raising the ticket prices has always been the simplest form of adding profits to the yearly margins.

The Action Network recently looked at ticket price increases over the past 15 years from all 32 NFL teams, and the Eagles landed just outside the top 10, at No. 12 overall.

Since the 2006 season, Philadelphia’s ticket prices have increased from $69 dollars to $127.06, an 84% markup, putting the Eagles in the middle of the pack.

The Raiders, Seahawks, Packers, 49ers, and Texans were the top 5 teams in ticket price increases, while the Jets, Chargers, Bengals, Commanders, and Patriots have the lowest percentage of increase across the league.
