Demand for tickets to WNBA games has soared on the secondary market ahead of the 2025 season, fueled by surging interest in star players like Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese, and Paige Bueckers. According to Victory Live, a ticketing technology company that analyzes sales across the secondary market, the league’s average ticket price (ATP) is up 43% year-over-year, climbing from $122 in 2024 to $173 in 2025.
Much of the growth is driven by the demand for tickets to see Clark and the Indiana Fever on the road. However, the top ATP for home games goes to the Dallas Wings, who just drafted Bueckers with the #1 overall pick in last week’s draft.
Key Takeaways
- The Indiana Fever are the top draw, appearing in 8 of the top 10 games by ATP.
- Dallas Wings, as an away team, saw a massive +89% increase in ATP.
- The average WNBA ATP is now $173, up from $122 in 2024.
