Citi Field isn’t just a ballpark, it’s one of Queens’ biggest stages for heritage, spectacle, and rivalry all season long. Between Latin heritage nights, Friday fireworks, and a lineup of marquee opponents, the New York Mets’ 2026 schedule has more than a few dates worth circling.

The Mets close out the season’s crosstown rivalry with a three-game set in the Bronx, the kind of citywide baseball moment that pulls in fans well beyond either team’s regular fan base. This one plays at Yankee Stadium, so ticket pricing runs through Yankees channels rather than the Mets’ own box office.
Mets Tickets
Single-game tickets, memberships, and special event ticket packages for heritage nights and promotions are available.
Lowest prices listed above are current resale starting prices via SeatGeek, the Mets’ official ticket marketplace, and fluctuate daily, so treat them as a general guide rather than a locked-in rate.
The Mets use demand pricing, so buy early for the best prices. The cheapest seats are midweek games.
