How much are cheap Bruce Springsteen Philly tickets? Here's what we found
Last-minute tickets are still up for grabs for Bruce Springsteen's two concerts in Philadelphia later this month.
But some of the more affordable tickets may not be available for long, as some resellers are taking advantage by pricing them as high as a mortgage payment.
One year after the shows were rescheduled because of Springsteen's health issues, the E Street Band will finally headline Citizens Bank Park, home of the Philadelphia Phillies, on Wednesday, Aug. 21, and Friday, Aug. 23.

Springsteen postponed 3 shows on Europe tour 2024
The Philly shows were slated to happen last August, but Springsteen rescheduled the concerts because he was being treated for symptoms of peptic ulcer disease. The Boss would eventually cancel the rest of his 2023 tour.
The 74-year-old superstar returned on tour in March at the Footprint Center in Phoenix. He kicked off the European leg of his tour in May but would later postpone three of those international shows due to vocal issues, Springsteen announced on social media.
Those concerts were on May 28 at Prague Letnany Airport in the Czech Republic, and June 1 and 3 at San Siro Stadium in Milan, Italy.
Will Bruce Springsteen retire after 2024 tour?
Rumors have been swirling around the internet that 2024 might be the "Born to Run" singer's final tour of his career.
Steven Van Zandt, a childhood friend of Springsteen who also plays guitar in the E Street Band, recently tackled the rumors in an interview with The Telegraph published July 27. He suggested the band's future looks very bright.
“You never know,” admits Van Zandt. “I mean, we treat every show like it could be the last show, and we’ve been doing that for 50 years. But the audience is still there, and we can see them getting younger every year."
The guitarist also suggested Springsteen and the band are like the Energizer Bunny.
"I don’t see the end anywhere in sight, to be honest, especially in Europe, where we’re bigger than we’ve ever been," Van Zandt said. "I think we can play every summer for evermore, man."
