US Trends

how much do us open tickets cost

US Open tennis tickets typically start in the low hundreds for early-round day sessions and can rise to several hundred dollars (or more) for prime night sessions and finals, especially on resale platforms.

Quick Scoop on Prices

  • Early rounds (week 1, upper levels): often a bit under or around 200–300 USD on resale for many Ashe sessions when prices are considered a “good deal,” with some cheaper options for grounds passes or less in-demand sessions.
  • Later rounds (second week, quarters/semis): prices commonly move into the 300–600+ USD range for decent seats, with premium locations far higher.
  • Finals and top premium seats: can climb into the high hundreds or thousands per ticket on the secondary market, depending on matchup, seat location, and timing.

Ticket marketplaces list specific sessions in Arthur Ashe or Louis Armstrong stadiums with “lowest price” figures around 350–500+ USD for some 2026 sessions, illustrating how high-demand dates trend. One independent fan guide frames “good deal” resale prices by section and session, noting that published ranges are only for what counts as reasonable and that top-end prices can run into the thousands.

What Affects How Much You Pay

  • Session and round (early weekday vs. Labor Day weekend, semis, finals).
  • Stadium (Arthur Ashe is usually priciest, Louis Armstrong and grounds passes are cheaper).
  • Seat location (courtside and lower bowls vs. upper levels).
  • Timing and demand on resale (star players, night matches, and historic runs push prices up).

Simple Example

If you’re just trying to see some tennis on a budget, an upper‑level Ashe or a non‑Ashe session in the first few days might be a couple of hundred dollars or less if you catch a good resale deal, whereas a prime-time semifinal in Ashe can easily be several times that.

Always check the official US Open site and a couple of major ticket marketplaces before buying, since prices are highly dynamic and can change quickly year to year and even day to day.

TL;DR: Expect roughly low hundreds for cheaper early‑round seats and grounds options, mid‑hundreds for many popular later sessions, and potentially into the high hundreds or thousands for the best seats and the biggest matches.
