-
The Masters ticket lottery for the 2026 tournament has already opened and runs through June 20. Prices for tournament rounds are around $160 per day, with practice rounds in the $125–$160 range depending on day. Expect a late-July payment deadline if you win. This is the official process, and Augusta National warns that only tickets sold through the official source are valid, with resale strictly prohibited.

If you miss the lottery or prefer secondary sources, reputable ticket marketplaces frequently list Masters tickets, but these are not official channels and prices can vary widely. Always verify buyer guarantees and source credibility, and be aware of Augusta’s policy against third-party ticket sales. [cite ][cite ]

For planning, you can consider alternative viewing options: public broadcast coverage and official Masters merchandise or hospitality packages through the official site. These options don’t grant tournament access but can enhance the experience for fans at home or on-site without risking invalid tickets. [cite ][cite ]
Illustrative example
- If you’re aiming to attend, apply in the official lottery window (June 1–June 20) and be prepared for a competitive draw; if successful, you’ll finalize payment later in the summer. If you don’t win, you can still monitor reputable resale marketplaces, but treat them carefully due to Augusta’s resale restrictions. [cite ][cite ]
