The Lumineers at Citi Field: Cheapest Ticket Prices Revealed
Look, I don’t want to be the one to break it to you, but if you thought snagging stadium-sized indie-folk tickets would be a bargain, think again. The Lumineers roll into Citi Field on July 14, 2024, and yes, the cheapest seats still sting your wallet more than you’d hope. I told you so.
According to Ticketmaster’s official listing, the lowest-tier general admission floor spots start at $49 before fees—meaning you’re really paying closer to $75 once service and processing charges kick in. If you’re aiming for that lawn-party vibe, Citi Field’s grass section comes in at a supposedly “budget” $35 face value, but brace yourself for a surprise at checkout: fees can inflate that to nearly $60 a pop. My advice? Don’t get your hopes up thinking you’ll walk in for next to nothing.
On the resale front, StubHub paints an even less rosy picture. Average lawn tickets hover around $55 after fees, while actual seats in the bowl—for all those who can’t fathom standing on grass—fetch roughly $120. Side-view seats? Scalpers are shamelessly pitching those for north of $150. Yes, you read that right. I’ve seen more reasonable prices at your local drive-in flick, and they’re charging for popcorn too.
Want the inside scoop on presales? Citi Field’s heat-check presale for Citi Card members went live on March 20, via Ticketmaster, and as you might guess, those sub-$50 spots evaporated in moments. Verified fan pulls? They’re just a polite way of telling you you’re out of luck without a credit card from the bank in question. Your best bet is to stalk Ticketmaster’s “Verified Fan” emails like your life depends on it—though I’d wager more on truly finding spare change behind your couch cushions.
Here’s what the hardcore believers know: if you really want to dodge booty-burning fees, you’ll have to gamble on last-minute listings or local Facebook Marketplace groups. Still, that’s a risky play if you value showing up with an actual ticket. Trust me, I’ve seen enough FAQs about “will-call” scams to know it’s a minefield.
So there you have it. The Lumineers’ Citi Field show demands a bit of wallet therapy, even for the cheapest seats. And that, dear reader, is why we can’t have nice things.
