How much are World Series tickets for Game 1 in Cleveland?
How much does a ticket to Game 1 of the World Series between the Cleveland Indians and Chicago Cubs cost?
Thanks to a little help from Royals first baseman Eric Hosmer and the American League All-Stars, Game 1 of the 2016 World Series will be played at Progressive Field, home of the Indians. This is an important advantage because of the Indians’ home record as well as the Cubs’ incredible success this year at Wrigley Field. The Tribe are in the World Series for the first time since 1997. Tickets are naturally expensive to get in for the first World Series home game in nearly 20 years.
According to Vividseats.com, tickets cost $700 just for standing room only. Tickets are officially unavailable on the Indians team website. However, if you really want to get into Game 1, Stubhub has some seats available.
On Stubhub, the cheapest tickets available as of Monday at 1:20 p.m. ET are $675 for standing room only. The cheapest seat available is in the upper deck (section 557) behind home plate for $849. Considering how long it has been since the Indians have made it to the World Series, that’s a price well worth it for some Indians fans. Progressive Field will be taken to its limits as far as the fire code with many standing room only sections being added to their attendance potential.
Game 1 of the World Series is on Tuesday Oct. 25 beginning at 8:00 p.m. ET. The Cleveland Indians will have ace Corey Kluber on the mound. Meanwhile, the Chicago Cubs have yet to announce their starting pitcher for the first game of the 2016 World Series. For the first two games and for four of them overall, the Indians will have a designated hitter. This luxury will disappear once the game heads to Wrigley Field for Games 3 through 5.
