San Francisco runs 5 pro teams across NBA, NHL, NFL, MLB, and WNBA — the Warriors (NBA), the Sharks (NHL), the 49ers (NFL), and the Giants (MLB), and more. This page filters every live listing to August 21 – August 23 only — sorted by date so the earliest weekend start sits on top — so a Friday-night game, a Saturday matinee and a Sunday afternoon all surface in one feed.
What's worth seeing in San Francisco this weekend
Baseball is the value play in San Francisco: an 81-date home schedule means the Giants at Oracle Park carry the deepest, softest inventory, and weeknight upper-deck seats are routinely the cheapest tickets in town inside a 41,265-seat ballpark.
Hockey seats swing hard by opponent — the Sharks at SAP Center at San Jose price midweek non-rivalry games far below weekend and Original-Six matchups, so a flexible date is the surest path under $50.
Basketball pricing tracks the marquee visitors: the Warriors at Chase Center discount weeknight games against lottery teams, where upper-bowl corners are the value seats in Mission Bay.
Football is the scarcest ticket — just 9 home dates means the 49ers rarely dip cheap, but early-season and cold-weather late-season games are where resale softens first.
Planning Your San Francisco Weekend
San Francisco has 10 games on the schedule this weekend (August 21 – August 23). Warriors, Sharks, 49ers stack their highest-demand matchups Friday through Sunday, so marquee games (rivalries, divisional clashes, premium opponents) often sell out the primary market fast. Verified resale floors regularly drop in the final 24–72 hours before first pitch or kickoff as sellers move inventory before it loses value. If you're locking in plans this week, check the grid below tonight, pick 2–3 candidate games, and watch prices into Friday morning. Weeknight pivots also work — a Tuesday or Wednesday home game routinely prices 30–50% under the Saturday date.
San Francisco Weekend Venues
Chase Center anchors the San Francisco weekend calendar, hosting most Warriors home games. The grid above pulls events across every covered San Francisco venue, so a Friday-night game, a Saturday matchup, and a Sunday afternoon all surface in one feed.
San Francisco sports market at a glance
San Francisco is one of the country's deepest sports markets, with 5 pro teams spanning NBA, NHL, NFL, MLB, and WNBA. That translates to roughly 192 combined home dates across the calendar year, which means competition for entertainment dollars keeps the secondary market active and gives flexible buyers more chances to find value.
Venue capacity shapes the price floor here. Oracle Park seats 41,265 for Giants games, which creates more available inventory per event and generally softer resale pricing. In contrast, Chase Center holds 18,064, so Warriors tickets carry tighter supply and higher floors on popular dates.
Game-day guide: San Francisco venues
Chase Center — Warriors (NBA)
Chase Center (18,064 seats) is a large indoor arena in Mission Bay that hosts Warriors (NBA) home games. Upper-level center seats are the value play for sightlines, with lower-bowl corners and baselines offering closer views at mid-range prices. Courtside, rinkside, and club sections sit at the top of the price scale. The on-site Mercedes-Benz Garage at 99 Warriors Way and Warriors Way Garage anchor parking, with nearby UCSF garages. The Muni Metro T Third Street line stops at the UCSF/Chase Center station just outside the arena.
SAP Center at San Jose — Sharks (NHL)
SAP Center at San Jose (17,435 seats) is a large indoor arena in Downtown San Jose that hosts Sharks (NHL) home games. Upper-level center seats are the value play for sightlines, with lower-bowl corners and baselines offering closer views at mid-range prices. Courtside, rinkside, and club sections sit at the top of the price scale. Two SAP Center lots on Santa Clara Street provide about 1,700 spaces, including a 1,500-space lot between Montgomery and Cahill streets. San Jose Diridon Station sits across the street, served by Caltrain, Capitol Corridor, and VTA light rail and buses.
Oracle Park — Giants (MLB)
Oracle Park (41,265 seats) is a mid-size stadium in Mission Bay / China Basin (South Beach) that hosts Giants (MLB) home games. In a stadium this size, upper-deck sideline sections offer the best value views, while lower-bowl seats between the 20-yard lines or behind home plate carry the highest prices. End-zone and outfield seats split the difference. The Pier 48 and Lot A parking sit across McCovey Cove, with limited garages in the surrounding South Beach area. Muni Metro N and T lines stop at the 2nd & King platforms beside the ballpark.
