UFC 209 tickets below face value on resale market
Looking for cheap events to attend in Sin City this weekend? UFC 209 might be right up your alley.
T-Mobile Arena will host the league’s latest marquee event on Saturday, penning Tyron Woodley and Stephen Thompson in a headlining UFC Welterweight Championship bout. The event doesn’t seem to be drawing much interest in ticket sales, however, as a significant amount of inventory is still available on Ticketmaster just two days out.
More than 1,500 tickets are also available on TicketIQ, a search engine that collects data from over 90 percent of the resale market. That is a notable number a mere 48 hours prior to the event, and perhaps most concerning is the lack of demand. In fact, resale prices for UFC 209 tickets are trending well below face value.
According to Ticketmaster, the cheapest available tickets are currently listed from $80 each. UFC 209 tickets on TicketIQ start from as low as $60 each, 25 percent below the cheapest primary asking price. The TicketIQ app offers an additional 10 percent in savings on all IQ Certified listings.
This value continues into most seating areas of T-Mobile Arena, including Lower Level center seating. Ticketmaster listings start from $600 and are selling under $400 on TicketIQ.
The current average list price for UFC 209 tickets on TicketIQ is $200, making it the cheapest UFC PPV event the company has tracked since UFC 186 ($165 average at Bell Centre in Montreal).
Woodley and Thompson meet for the second time after fighting at UFC 205 in New York City’s Madison Square Garden. The fight, which preceded the marquee McGregor vs. Alvarez bout, ended in a majority draw.
Four other bouts round out Saturday’s main card. Khabib Nurmagomedov will take on Tony Ferguson while Lando Vannata fights David Teymur in two separate Lightweight fights. A Middleweight fight is scheduled between Rashad Evans and Dan Kelly. Alistair Overeem and Mark Hunt battle in the main card’s sole Heavyweight fight.
