Regular season games fire off at Fenway on Friday, April 13 against the Rays. 

If you're visiting Boston, attending a Red Sox game at Fenway Park lets you experience Boston - and baseball - at its best.  As you walk to the centrally-located stadium, you'll smell the Fenway Franks, smile when you see banners lining the streets, and soak up the excitement of the crowds.

And of course, once you enter the stadium, then the real fun begins!

The Sox play all home games at Fenway Park, located in central Boston in the Fenway neighborhood.  You can easily reach Fenway Park by public transportation, car, or best of all, on foot.

Ever since winning their first World Series in 86 years back in 2004, the Sox have sold out every home game at Fenway and getting tickets can be challenging - so once you know the dates when you want to see them play, get your tickets as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.

How to get Boston Red Sox Tickets

If you want to get Red Sox tickets for good-to-great seats on fairly short notice, your best bet will be a ticket broker.  Why?  Lots of the best seats go to season ticket holders, and most of the rest get snapped up as soon as tickets go on sale each January.  Lots of these seats end up being sold or resold to brokers.

TicketLiquidator and AceTicket are two brokers that do a lot of business here in Boston because they offer big inventories at reasonable prices, they're reliable, and they provide good service.  Best of all, they guarantee their tickets.  You may also want to check Ticketmaster and StubHub.

Ace has pick-up locations near Fenway Park, and TicketLiquidator sends tickets quickly.  I've used them both, with excellent results.  Yes, you'll usually pay more than face value - but it's much cheaper than buying tickets early and not being able to use them.

On occasion (like when a game might be rained out), brokers offer tickets for less than face value.

If you venture beyond Ace and TicketLiquidator, be careful.  Not all brokers are licensed, not all guarantee their tickets, and some charge very inflated prices and/or fees.  Never, ever buy from scalpers, those guys who sidle up to you outside the gate and mutter "tickets."  What they're selling may not get you through the gate.

Single Ticket, Game Day, and Red Sox Ticket Auctions

Here are several more options for getting Boston Red Sox tickets to consider, when they make sense, and how to pursue them:

Single Tickets to Red Sox Games

Although all Red Sox games do sell out since the 2004 World Series championship, a few tickets - almost always for single seats - often remain available through the ticket office until close to game time.  These tickets make sense when:

• You don't want to sit with friends
• You don't mind how much you pay
• You don't care where you sit

Game Day tickets

When they make sense:

• You don't mind how much you pay or where you sit
• You don't mind standing in line for a few hours
• You won't be heart-broken if you don't get a ticket

If you do want to try for Game Day tickets, you need to line up at Gate E.  Ticket sales start 2 hours before the game, but you'll normally need to be in line hours earlier.  You can buy only 1 ticket for yourself, and you must enter Fenway Park immediately after buying your ticket.  The number of available tickets vary per game. 

Red Sox Ticket Auctions

When they make sense:

• You enjoy bidding wars
• You don't care how much you pay
• You won't be disappointed if your bid doesn't win - or:
  
  
  • You're committed to out-bidding the competition
