7 Most Expensive Concerts In Tampa This Year
Going to see a show is definitely not what it used to be. Pre-pandemic pricing for concert tickets was somewhat affordable and the resale game was not as competitive as it is today. Now your credit card is close to its limits if you plan to go to more than 2 “big” shows this year. We have a stacked lineup of artists coming to concert in Tampa this year. So we did a deep dive to see the most expensive concerts in Tampa for 2024.
Some clever people have found some hacks to get into these big shows for “cheap”. Many have learned this from Beyoncé’s Renaissance World Tour or Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour. Some people will wait till the last possible minute to buy their tickets. They note in some viral TikToks that if you go to the stadium and wait till the headliner hits the stage, the remaining resale tickets drop! It can be a very stressful process, especially if you REALLY want to be at a particular show. You may miss the first few songs, but the discount will be worth it!
The prices you see below for these concerts in Tampa are just to get you in the door. Meaning they won’t be the best seats in the house. Some refer to them as the “nosebleeds”. They also don’t include those pesky fees we all know (and hate). So be prepared to cough up an arm, leg, and vital organ if you plan on going to any of these shows. (All the prices shown are from Ticketmaster).
Some may ask “Is it worth it to spend this money on concert tickets?” Well, we know the cost of living is a struggle and we all have bills to pay. But these concerts bring so much joy and life-long core memories. Maybe you can treat yourself with a lucky scratch-off or win a contest (wink wink.)
