The Masters is golf's most exclusive major — played every April at Augusta National Golf Club in Georgia — and it's essentially the sport's annual kick-off to major season. This year's edition runs April 9 through 12, with practice rounds earlier in the week and the Par 3 Contest following. If you're ready to watch it all live, read on to learn how to get US Masters tickets.
In recent years, the tournament has been defined by a mix of modern dominance and career-defining breakthroughs: Rory McIlroy won in 2025, completing the career Grand Slam, after Scottie Scheffler won in 2024. Heading into 2026, the contender list is loaded. Scottie Scheffler is still a favorite because his tee-to-green game travels anywhere, while McIlroy comes in as the defending champ.
It's not too late to secure your spot to catch the Masters Tournament in person. Whether you're planning to travel to Augusta or live locally, keep reading to check the schedule before heading to StubHub or Vivid Seats when you're ready to buy.
The Masters Tournament 2026 schedule
The Masters runs an official application/lottery system, and for 2026, face-value prices increased, with tournament-day tickets priced at $160 and practice-round tickets priced lower. If you missed the lottery, secondary-market pricing is where things get tricky: resale listings can jump into the thousands per day.

How much are US Masters tickets?
On the resale market, Masters tickets are expensive across the board, even before you get into weekend rounds. On Vivid Seats, the lowest pricing we're seeing for 2026 Masters practice-round grounds passes starts at about $2,191 for Monday practice, while higher-demand days jump quickly — the Wednesday practice/Par 3 day listings can reach up to roughly $53,703.
Over on StubHub, pricing is similarly steep — and can look even more extreme depending on the specific listing. For Monday practice (April 6), StubHub shows tickets starting around $2,340, with top-end listings on that same page displayed as high as over $866,881 — an outlier level that underscores how volatile (and seller-driven) Masters resale pricing can be.
