How Much Do Tickets to L.P. Frans Stadium Cost?

L.P. Frans Stadium ticket prices vary significantly depending on the type of event, the artist or team, seating section, and demand — which is what you'd expect from a venue that hosts everything from Crawdads general-admission lawn seating to reserved grandstand baseball seats, concerts, and special events.

For Hickory Crawdads baseball, general-admission and lawn tickets can often be found in the approximately $8–$15 range. These options are typically among the most affordable ways to enjoy a game at the ballpark, especially for fans who prefer a casual grass berm setting.

Reserved grandstand seats for Crawdads baseball are typically around $12–$20 or more, depending on seat location, opponent, day of week, and demand. Seats behind home plate and along the baselines may cost more than lawn or general-admission areas because they offer a closer, more traditional baseball view.

Concerts and special events at L.P. Frans Stadium vary by event. Pricing can depend on the performer, event format, stage setup, available seating areas, and overall demand.

Buying earlier generally provides better seat selection, especially for popular promotional dates, fireworks nights, and the July 4th celebration. As inventory shrinks and the event date approaches, prices for the best remaining sections can rise.
