SOLD OUT?! - World Championship - Round 6 tickets

Avatar of Frecky

Just went on ticketmaster, and round 6 appears to only have the $600 VIP tickets left...

Does anyone know if there is any way to find a $75 day pass instead?

Or would anyone who bought a ticket be willing to sell it? Message me please!

Tickets are not being sold on Ticketmaster. They are using ticketfly- http://www.ticketfly.com/event/1337861-tournament-pass-world-chess-new-york/

It looks like there are still $100 tickets left for opening day tomorrow and $75 tickets for rounds next week.  Round 2 on Saturday does appear to be sold out.

Here is another link to look at the whole schedule. It appears that Round 6 is not sold out for the $75 passes. (It appears that only Round 2 and Round 7 are currently sold out.)

Thanks for the answer. Unfortunately rounds 6 and 7 are the only ones i can attend, and they are both sold out... Anyone else got ideas?

They are available on StubHub for only $258.  Lots of Broadway show tickets are more expensive than that.

You could apply to be a volunteer. Their site says they are flexible and you can pick the dates you want to work. There's no guarantee that you'll be anywhere near the match, though.

 If the opening ceremony is being held separately from game 1, the location and time must be a secret. There is nothing about the opening ceremony on the website of the championship.
