Tennessee adds talent fee to ticket prices

Tennessee to add 10 percent talent fee to ticket prices.

Tennessee announced an increase in ticket prices for the 2025 season.

The talent fee will result in a 10 percent increase in all season tickets, single-game tickets and donations.

The fee will be utilized to fund a revenue-sharing pool for student-athletes. Revenue sharing with student-athletes could begin as early as 2025.

Vol fans can renew season tickets beginning Thursday. A deadline to renew season tickets is Feb. 27, 2025. Tennessee is offering season ticket holders a 10-month payment plan.

The 10 percent increase will raise funds, which will go directly to student-athletes. The revenue sharing plan will be instituted as a result of the House v. NCAA lawsuit.

Terms of the settlement have yet to be determined, but it would allow athletic departments to directly compensate athletes up to $20 million.

All SEC and Big Ten schools are expected to opt into the model.
