During a season of record interest in the league, WNBA All-Star 2024 in Phoenix is about to shatter some records of its own. The demand for the All-Star Game in Phoenix outpaces previous years. Sales for this year’s All-Star Game are already more than double that of last year’s final game sales on StubHub; over the last three years, sales have increased by a factor of 13.
Tickets for Saturday’s game at the Footprint Center start at $130 on StubHub. The most expensive is $50,345, sold as part of a package deal valued at over $100,000. Adam Budelli, spokesperson for StubHub, said:
