The best
I will never use stubhub again. Seet geek is the best way to ticket. You buy the ticket and you know the price. You can’t go, sell the ticket. Takes 5 days to get money back but worth it. Thank you for this company.Charliebb7

2025 NCAA March Madness Tickets
When the calendar flips to March, there is one thing on every sports fan's mind: March Madness is just weeks away. With dozens of games every year that help the tournament live up to its "Madness" nickname, it's an event on every fan's bucket list.
Selection Sunday is on March 16, 2025, with the First Four games taking place March 18-19 in Dayton, Ohio. First and Second Round games will take place March 20-23, with the Sweet 16 and Elite 8 taking place March 27-30. The Final Four will be in San Antonio, TX on April 5 with the National Championship on April 7.
March Madness ticket prices can vary substantially based on a handful of variables, including the stage of play, the location of the games, and the teams playing. The earlier rounds are typically less expensive. As the tournament progresses and demand for tickets rises in the later rounds, ticket prices tend to increase. See below for more detailed ticket information.

The 2025 NCAA March Madness tournament begins with Selection Sunday on March 16. The tournament will then continue as follows:
First Four: March 18-19

Second round: March 22-23
Sweet 16: March 27-28Â

March Madness Tickets by Round |

How much are NCAA March Madness tickets?
March Madness ticket prices depend on a variety of factors, including match up, location, date, round and more. You'll usually find lower ticket prices during the earlier rounds, like the First Four and the First and Second Rounds.
Later rounds, like the Final Four and NCAA Championship Game, skew higher prices due to the severity of the game. Between the exciting storylines, Cinderella stories and diehard fanbases, the later rounds provide the most exhilarating March Madness gameplay.
Not sure which rounds you want to see in person? Or when to buy tickets? Click into any event listed above and click the heart icon at the top of that page to "track" the event. You'll receive notifications on price drops and changes, so you'll always have the most up-to-date information on March Madness ticket prices.
How can I get cheap NCAA March Madness tickets?
March Madness tickets typically start around $206. You'll likely find the lowest prices during the first few rounds of the tournament, as storylines are still developing. Ticket prices also depend on seat location, venue, date and a number of other factors. In most venues, you'll find the cheapest tickets in the 200- and 300-level sections.
Make sure to utilize SeatGeek's "Deal Score" to find the best deals on March Madness tickets. SeatGeek combines ticket price, seat location and a few other factors to determine how good of a deal you're getting on tickets. Click into the event you're looking to attend above and check out the Deal Scores.
What is a full strip ticket?
A full strip of tickets includes a ticket to each of the sessions hosted at that venue. For the first and second round locations, this would include tickets to the two afternoon session games, the two evening session games, and the two second round games in the third session. In the case of the Sweet 16 and Elite 8, a full strip would include tickets for the games at the location for both those rounds. In the case of the Final Four, a full strip includes tickets to the two semifinal games as well as the Championship game.
Unlike most sporting events, in the case of March Madness, many tickets include admission to more than a single game. In the First Round, Second Round, and Sweet 16, each session includes admission to back-to-back games. However, in the case of the First Round Session 1 tickets do not include admission to the games in Session 2, and vice versa, even though the games are on the same day.
What is a NCAA March Madness session ticket?
Since all of the March Madness venues host multiple games over multiple days, session tickets are often sold together as a package or split up.
"All session" tickets are the most straightforward, and give you access to all the games at that venue. Whether it is the First Four, the Final Four or one of the regional sites, when you buy an All Session ticket you are able to attend all of the games in that location.
"Session specific" tickets can be a little tricky, but we'll explain. Most fans end up opting for session specific tickets because they are focused on seeing their specific team. At the first and second round locations there are three different sessions, while at the regional locations there are two different sessions. The table below demonstrates what each session gets you access to:
First and Second Round Locations
Session # | Description |
Session 1 | The first two games of the first round and day at that location, typically in the early afternoon |
Session 2 | The last two games of the first round and day at that location, typically in the evening |
Session 3 | The two second round games at that location. These take place two days after the first round |
Regional Locations
Session # | Description |
Session 1 | The two Sweet 16 games at that location. Your ticket gives you access to both |
Session 2 | The one Elite 8 game at that location |
What teams are playing in NCAA March Madness?
Teams are decided on Selection Sunday, which will take place on March 16, 2025.
