The countdown to the 2025 MLB World Series has begun, with the championship series scheduled to start on either October 21 or October 24. The exact date will depend on the outcomes of the current playoff series, which could see both competing teams advance quickly. Tickets for the World Series are already available on secondary market platforms such as Vivid Seats, SeatGeek, and StubHub, all of which provide buyer guarantees.
Purchasing tickets early is advisable, as they tend to sell out rapidly. Should the team you support fail to make it to the World Series, buyers can expect a refund or the opportunity to transfer their ticket purchase to a different game.
