Toronto Maple Leafs Playoff Tickets Soaring Past $7K
Toronto Maple Leafs Playoff Tickets are already soaring past $7,000 on resale sites, even though the first round hasn’t started and opponents remain unconfirmed. With just days left in the regular season, die-hard fans are scrambling for seats — and some are paying eye-watering prices for the chance to witness a deep playoff run.
$7,000 for a First-Round Seat?
Ticket listings for Game 7 of Round 1 at Scotiabank Arena are hitting $7,125 per seat in lower bowl sections like 111 and 114. Even less premium seats — including obstructed-view spots in the 300s — are fetching nearly $300 on Ticketmaster.
Here’s a quick breakdown:
- StubHub: Game 1 seats go from $353 to over $4,000
- Ticketmaster: Obstructed-view starts at $293.50; premium lower bowl up to $2,518
- Standing room for Game 7? Starts at $240, but rises quickly
And yes — opponents, game dates, and even Game 7 itself remain unconfirmed.
Why the Rush — and the Rage?
Toronto clinched its playoff berth with a win over the Florida Panthers and currently sits atop the Atlantic Division. Potential matchups include the Ottawa Senators, Florida Panthers, or a Tampa Bay rematch.
But it’s not just the steep resale prices drawing frustration. Season ticket holders were also hit with 20%+ increases on 2025–26 renewals, with some packages nearing $36,000 for playoff seats alone.
“It is sad that the game has become so corporate,” said one longtime ticket holder, priced out after 84 years in the family.
What Comes Next?
A public ticket sale is expected after the Leafs wrap their regular season on Thursday, April 17. Until then, fans are left choosing between sitting tight or paying top dollar on speculative resale seats.
As the playoffs approach, so does the question: how much is too much for a shot at seeing history?
