Still no tickets on sale through the sec website. Does anyone know when they will and what prices have been like in the past? Looking to make the drive up to Nashville so trying to gather some info!

Just got an email back from the SEC Ticket Office:

"The SEC Ticket Office will not have a public sale for the 2025 SEC Men's Basketball Tournament.

We are currently renewing our existing ticket holders with accounts opened from 2000 to 2016.

There have been no new accounts for men's basketball opened since 2016 due to the demand for tickets from our member schools."

Vanderbilt buddy of mine in Nashville bought two books last week. Vandy stinks, but he always buys them to keep his account current, and then sells them to UK fans. Single ticket for all sessions was $2200.
Prices will be crazy this year with so many good teams. UK and Tennessee fans especially will drive up prices for single sessions.

That is outrageously expensive

Bumping this thread… so I made plans with my dad to the SEC men's tourney for his 70th bday not realizing how insane the tickets were going to cost. We got the same message that we have to buy tickets via secondary market since we've never been before. Does anyone have any tips on the best way to handle the ticket situation? Originally we were going to do the whole weekend but I didn't know if it made sense to do sessions or wing it when we get there. Not critical that we see every game but wanted to show him a good time - any advice is appreciated!

Instead go to the first 2 rounds of March Madness where the Aggies are playing. Every time it is one of the best athletic events we have been to. Especially when the Aggies are playing and when we are really good. Like this year.

You have to be on your computer with your airline of choice pulled up when the brackets are announced that Sunday and be ready to make hotel reservations too.

Probably best to try to get tix for the individual sessions you want. Prices will be higher if UK or Tenn is playing in same session as Ags. Tickets easier to get once those two get eliminated, so keep refreshing ticket app as teams lose each day.. Lots of fun places to watch game on Broadway if prices get too high. Worst case, Mid TN A&M Club meets at Tailgate Brewery on Music Row near downtown.
