UConn and Michigan are set for a rematch of their 2026 national championship game Friday night at TD Garden in Boston, with tipoff scheduled for 8 p.m. The game has turned into the headline act of a doubleheader, and as of Thursday, tickets were still available on secondary markets — though they were moving fast.

As reported by Connecticut Post, resale tickets on Thursday ranged widely depending on seating level. Balcony tickets were listed from $112 to $210, loge seats ran from $250 to $600, and floor seats were going for more than $1,000. The outlet pointed buyers toward Ticketmaster, StubHub, SeatGeek and Vivid Seats as the marketplaces carrying inventory.

A separate report from CTInsider confirmed tickets remained available on secondary markets Thursday but noted the majority of what was left sat in the balcony levels. The same report listed Ticketmaster, StubHub, SeatGeek and Vivid Seats as the ticket sources fans were watching.

A Championship Rematch With Rankings on the Line

Friday's game is a direct rematch of the 2026 NCAA championship, when Michigan beat UConn 69-63 at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis on April 6 — UConn's first loss in an NCAA title game. Both programs enter Friday off wins in their season openers. CTInsider's report has UConn ranked fourth in the AP poll and Michigan ranked 16th.

The matchup is the second half of a doubleheader at TD Garden. Boston College and UMass tip off first, at 4 p.m., in what the venue and the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame are calling the Hall of Fame Series Boston. The Hall of Fame's own release notes it marks Boston College and UMass's first meeting at TD Garden since 2014, setting the stage for the UConn-Michigan rematch to follow.

One Ticket, Two Games

Fans do not get to pick just one game. According to the Hall of Fame, one ticket provides admission to both November 6 contests. TD Garden echoes that policy directly, stating that tickets for the event are good for both games and that the games cannot be purchased individually.

TD Garden says tickets are available online, at the box office, and at all Ticketmaster outlets — the same primary-market channel named by CTInsider among the secondary resellers still carrying inventory. With tipoff Friday night and the secondary market reportedly thinning out, fans hoping to see the rematch in person have a shrinking window to lock in a seat.
