How much is a night out at a KC game? See ticket costs for Royals, Current & more
Summer is almost here, and if you’re looking for things to do in the Kansas City area, four of the metro’s professional sports teams will be in the middle of their respective seasons with plenty of home games on the schedule.
Baseball fans can get their fix at Kauffman Stadium or Legends Field, while soccer lovers can call CPKC Stadium or Children’s Mercy Park home for the season. The Kansas City Royals, Kansas City Monarchs, Kansas City Current and Sporting Kansas City play often from June to September, sometimes on the same day.
No experience is the same, and neither are ticket prices. Entry for the games can fluctuate depending on how well the teams are performing, who they’re playing, the time and day of the game, or if there is a special activity or theme. Tickets can be as low as $17 per person to enjoy a night out at one of the stadiums in the area.
