Toronto Blue Jays ticket prices are soaring and they\u2019re unlikely to improve, with this year\u2019s World Series quickly becoming one of the priciest \u2014 ever.<\/p>\n

The Blue Jays are facing off against the Los Angeles Dodgers for Game 6 of the World Series on Friday, with huge fanfare trailing them. Dubbed \u201cCanada\u2019s team,\u201d the Blue Jays haven\u2019t won a World Series since 1993 and have largely been considered the underdogs against L.A.\u00a0They’re leading 3-2 in the World Series after a big win on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

But getting tickets to Friday’s game has been near impossible \u2014 and it\u2019s only getting worse.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Game 6 prices are averaging more than $2,000 US, or about $2,800 Cdn, and a potential Game 7 could cost nearly $3,000 US, or about $4,200 Cdn, on the resale market, according to data from Victory Live, a technology and analytics company that tracks verified secondary-market transactions.<\/p>\n

\u201cDaily trends show that Game 6 average prices have climbed each day since Tuesday,\u201d a Victory Live media release says.<\/p>\n

So it\u2019s unsurprising that diehard baseball fans and playoff bandwagoners alike have voiced major disappointment. Some reports<\/a> have even declared this year\u2019s World Series the most expensive ever sporting event in Canada.\u00a0<\/p>\n

At the time of writing, the cheapest ticket available on Ticketmaster was $1,462.50 for a single spot in the Rogers Centre outfield district, while the cheapest ticket available on StubHub was about $1,600.\u00a0<\/p>\n

According to Victory Live, Game 6 prices are trailing the resell average for last year\u2019s Taylor Swift\u2019s Eras Tour shows at Rogers Centre, which averaged at $2,320 US. If the Jays and Dodgers meet at Game 7, though, ticket prices could surpass that, the data shows.<\/p>\n

The sky-high prices have even inspired Ontario Premier Doug Ford to speak out, promising to look into the issue.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“My personal opinion … they’re gouging the people,” he said earlier this month. “When you have one player in the market that controls the tickets, that’s not right for the people.”<\/p>\n

Notably, Ford\u2019s own government scrapped part of a law<\/a> in 2019 that would have limited ticket resale prices to 50 per cent above face value.\u00a0<\/p>\n
