Knicks pause ticket sales after error caused them to be listed at prices too
high
NEW YORK (AP) --- The New York Knicks said Thursday they are pausing ticket
sales after an error caused them to be listed for amounts that were too high.
The NBA champions put individual game tickets for the 2026-27 season on sale
this week. The get-in price for the Oct. 20 season opener against Philadelphia
was more than $1,000.
"We are pausing Knicks individual ticket sales due to a mistake in our pricing.
We are rolling back to last year's prices plus an average increase of 12%. We
will restart sales with new prices shortly, and anyone who already purchased
individual tickets will be refunded the difference," Madison Square Garden
Sports said in a statement.
There is generally a ticket increase after seasons when the Knicks made the
playoffs. Owner James Dolan has not raised them when the team does not.
"Our intention was never to overcharge our loyal fans, and we thank everyone
for their support of the Knicks and their patience as we get this right," MSG
said.
