The NFL was formed in 1920 as the American Professional Football Association (APFA) before renaming itself the National Football League for the 1922 season. The NFL agreed to merge with the American Football League (AFL) in 1966, and the first Super Bowl was held at the end of that season; the merger was completed in 1970. Today, the NFL has the highest average attendance (67,591) of any professional sports league in the world and is America’s most popular sport,![Understanding America’s obsession with football](https://i.imgur.com/t9zJXYr.png) attracting tens of millions of spectators annually. The Super Bowl is among the biggest club sporting events in the world,![Super Bowl LIII was most watched ever with 103 million viewers](https://i.imgur.com/qqd4Kpn.png) and individual Super Bowl games account for many of the most watched television broadcasts in U.S. history, all contributing to its success as a sporting event and as a piece of entertainment television.
How to find out when tickets go on sale
The NFL schedule is released in the spring, typically in April. Ticket information is usually released at that time as well. However, because of the coronavirus pandemic, the 2020 NFL season was postponed, and the 2021 NFL season is still up in the air. As a result, ticket information for 2021 has not yet been released.
The best way to find out when tickets go on sale is to sign up for NFL Ticket Alerts. By signing up, you’ll be notified as soon as ticket information is released for the 2021 season.
How to get the best deals on tickets
The best deals on 2021 NFL tickets will come from buying them directly from the team or an authorized dealer. However, there are a few things you can do to get the best price:
– Check the team’s website for any ticket specials or promotions.
– Join the team’s mailing list to be among the first to hear about ticket sales and special offers.
– Follow the team on social media for even more insider information on upcoming ticket sales.
– Contact the box office directly to ask about any discounts or promotions they may be offering at the moment.
How to get tickets if you’re not a season ticket holder
If you’re not a season ticket holder, the best way to get NFL tickets is to buy them through the league’s official resale marketplace, NFL Ticket Exchange. There, you can buy and sell tickets from other fans with the peace of mind of knowing that all transactions are guaranteed by the league.
The NFL Ticket Exchange typically opens for business a few months before the start of the regular season. So if you’re hoping to buy tickets for the 2021 season, you should be able to do so sometime in late spring or early summer.
Of course, buying tickets through the NFL Ticket Exchange isn’t your only option. You can also try your luck with sites like StubHub, SeatGeek, and Vivid Seats. However, be aware that prices on those sites are often considerably higher than face value, so you’ll need to be prepared to pay a premium if you go that route.
Conclusion
The 2021 NFL regular season is set to begin on September 9th. Tickets for all NFL games will go on sale to the general public on August 25th.
