The Ten Most Expensive Cities to Go See a Concert

Posted by on in

Concert tickets are crazy expensive these days.  Especially if you have to buy them through a reseller.  So SeatGeek looked at how much second-hand tickets cost in America’s 50 biggest cities.

The lowest is in Norfolk, Virginia, where the average ticket costs $85.  Here are the ten most expensive cities to go see a concert . . .

  1. Las Vegas, $206 per ticket.  A study last year found Vegas also has more concerts per capita than any other city.

 

  1. San Jose, $167.

 

  1. Miami, $166.

 

  1. San Antonio, $159.

 

  1. Dallas, $158.

 

  1. New York, $154.

 

  1. New Orleans, $145.

 

  1. Houston, $142.

 

  1. Los Angeles, $140.

 

  1. Chicago, also $140.  We haven’t seen an average ticket price anywhere.  But out of the 50 cities they looked at, the median price was $123 per ticket.
