How much do Celtics vs 76ers Playoff tickets cost?

As is tradition for this rivalry, ticket prices are significantly higher than regular-season averages, especially in Boston, where the Celtics are the betting favorites to win the East.

Prices vary based on the venue and the stakes of the game.

Boston’s TD Garden is currently seeing Game 1 prices starting around $150, with balcony seats trending toward $200.

A trip to Philadelphia’s Xfinity Mobile Arena for Game 3 is currently more affordable for entry-level fans, with prices starting at $65.

• Seating Tier: Balcony and nosebleed seats are the most budget-friendly. Premium Loge and courtside seats at TD Garden for Game 1 can easily exceed $1,500 on resale platforms.
• Series Momentum: Boston has won six straight playoff series against Philadelphia. If the 76ers manage an early upset, expect prices in Philadelphia for Games 3 and 4 to skyrocket as Philly fans sense a breakthrough.
• Market Demand: Both cities are among the most passionate basketball markets. TD Garden often sells out its primary inventory before the postseason even begins, leaving the secondary market as the only option for many fans.
