Looking for Houston Texans tickets?

Houston offers a slightly different NFL ticket proposition from many of the teams we’ve covered.

The Texans play at Reliant Stadium, where a retractable roof means you don’t need to build your buying strategy around Texas heat, rain or winter weather in quite the same way as you would at an open-air stadium.

Current ticket prices are also relatively accessible. Several remaining Texans home games can still be found from around $65–$90, including divisional matchups.

Add Houston’s strong tailgating culture and comparatively straightforward METRORail access, and the Texans can offer good value for somebody looking to experience live NFL football.

This guide covers the 2026 schedule, current prices, where to sit, which remaining games stand out and how we’d approach buying Texans tickets.

The Texans’ 2026 season includes eight home games at Reliant Stadium, eight traditional road games and an NFL International Game against Jacksonville at Wembley Stadium in London.

Houston also entered the season celebrating the franchise’s 25th year.

For the remainder of the regular season, the home schedule is relatively simple:

Indianapolis Colts
Baltimore Ravens
Jacksonville Jaguars
Tennessee Titans

What immediately stands out is that none of those games currently carries an enormous get-in price.

Even the AFC South fixtures remain accessible compared with some of the rivalry premiums we’ve seen elsewhere.

That creates an interesting choice.

If your priority is pure value, Indianapolis and Tennessee currently offer inexpensive entry.

If you want the strongest remaining home opponent, Baltimore is an attractive option without carrying a dramatic price premium.

And if divisional relevance matters, Jacksonville in December could become increasingly interesting depending on the standings.

Houston Texans Home Tickets

The remaining Texans home schedule is attractive because each game offers something slightly different without requiring Super Bowl-sized spending.

Indianapolis Colts — Thursday Night Football

Indianapolis visits Houston on Thursday 19 November.

This is both an AFC South game and a prime-time fixture, so you’re getting something more distinctive than a standard Sunday afternoon without currently paying a huge premium.

For somebody visiting Houston and wanting a night-game atmosphere, this would be high on our shortlist.

Baltimore Ravens — the strongest remaining non-divisional opponent

Baltimore visits on 29 November.

The Ravens bring a recognisable AFC opponent and travelling support, but current get-in prices remain remarkably close to Indianapolis.

That makes this one of the more interesting value propositions on the schedule.

For more information on the visiting team, see our Baltimore Ravens Tickets guide.

Jacksonville Jaguars — divisional significance

Jacksonville comes to Houston on 20 December.

The Texans and Jaguars already met at Wembley earlier in the year, which gives this return fixture an extra storyline.

Depending on how the AFC South develops, a late-December divisional matchup can also gain importance quickly.

Tennessee Titans — Week 18 uncertainty

Tennessee visits in the final week.

The date and kickoff time won’t be confirmed until later.

That uncertainty can work both ways.

If the game develops major playoff implications, demand could rise sharply.

If neither team has much left to play for, the market may behave very differently.

We’d therefore treat Week 18 as a ticket to monitor rather than one we’d automatically rush to buy months in advance.

Houston Texans Away Tickets

Houston’s remaining road schedule is unusually varied.

The Texans travel to Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Washington, Philadelphia and Green Bay.

If you were choosing entirely on ticket price, Philadelphia currently stands out as one of the cheaper options.

If you’re choosing for the NFL experience, however, Pittsburgh and Green Bay are much more compelling.

Pittsburgh for atmosphere

The Texans visit Acrisure Stadium for Sunday Night Football.

That combines a strong football city, prime time and one of the NFL’s most recognisable home atmospheres.

See our Pittsburgh Steelers Tickets guide if you’re considering the trip.

Green Bay for the bucket-list stadium

Houston finishes Week 17 at Lambeau Field on Monday Night Football.

That is currently the most expensive remaining Texans road game — but it’s also the one we’d find easiest to justify paying more for.

A January night game at Lambeau is not really comparable with a standard road fixture.

You’re paying for the destination and stadium experience as much as the opponent.

Philadelphia for value

The Christmas Eve game in Philadelphia currently has one of the lowest get-in prices on Houston’s remaining schedule.

Travel costs and holiday logistics could change the overall economics, but the ticket itself is comparatively accessible.

So again, we’d compare the whole trip, not merely the first price on the marketplace.

How Much Are Houston Texans Tickets?

Houston currently sits in a relatively accessible part of the NFL ticket market.

At our November 2026 check, remaining entry-level resale prices broadly started around:

Game	Approximate starting price
Texans at Browns	$35+
Colts at Texans	$65+
Ravens at Texans	$65+
Texans at Steelers	$110+
Texans at Commanders	$65+
Jaguars at Texans	$90+
Texans at Eagles	$50+
Texans at Packers	$170+
Titans at Texans	$65+

The useful point isn’t whether one listing is $64 or $67.

It’s the overall shape of the market.

Three of Houston’s four remaining home games currently start around the $65 level.

Jacksonville is slightly higher, but still below $100 at the get-in level.

That means the Texans currently offer something we didn’t see as strongly with Buffalo or Pittsburgh: you can choose the type of game you want without the opponent automatically multiplying the ticket cost.

Our approach would therefore be to spend more time comparing seat quality.

If the difference between an upper-level ticket and a significantly better location is relatively modest, we’d rather upgrade the view than obsess over shaving another $10 from the cheapest ticket.

Our NFL Ticket Prices guide explains the wider factors that affect NFL pricing.

When Do Houston Texans Tickets Go On Sale?

Texans single-game tickets become available once the NFL schedule is released, with official inventory sold through the team’s ticketing channels.

But Houston’s current market shows why the original on-sale date is not the whole story.

There is still meaningful inventory available deep into the season.

For a flexible buyer, that means you can continue comparing games and sections rather than assuming you missed your opportunity by not purchasing in May.

The situation can change when a game develops greater meaning.

A December AFC South fixture that suddenly affects playoff qualification can behave very differently from the same game months earlier.

So we’d see the schedule announcement as the start of the buying window, not automatically the best point within it.

If you’re unfamiliar with primary inventory, resale tickets and mobile delivery, our How to Buy NFL Tickets guide explains the main options.

When Is the Best Time to Buy Houston Texans Tickets?

Houston is one of the teams where we’d focus less on timing and more on what your money buys.

Don’t chase the cheapest ticket automatically

With several home games already available around $65–$90, the difference between “cheap” and “cheapest” may not materially change your trip.

We’d compare sections first.

Spending another $20–$40 for a noticeably better view may produce much more value than waiting days hoping the get-in price falls slightly.

Prime time is currently good value

The Colts game is particularly interesting.

Thursday Night Football adds atmosphere and novelty, yet the current entry price is broadly similar to several ordinary Sunday fixtures.

If you enjoy night games, that looks like a strong combination of experience and price.

Jacksonville could become more expensive for a reason

December divisional games can gain importance as the playoff picture develops.

If Texans–Jaguars becomes significant within the AFC South, demand could strengthen.

If that’s the game you specifically want, we’d be less inclined to wait indefinitely.

Week 18 is a calculated gamble

Titans at Texans is currently affordable, but the final week is inherently uncertain.

The upside is obvious: it could become a meaningful divisional finale.

The downside is that the exact date remains unconfirmed and the sporting significance may disappear.

For somebody travelling internationally, we’d prefer a confirmed earlier game unless Week 18 itself is the attraction.

Reliant Stadium Tickets and Seating

houston texans reliant stadium tickets — *Image Credit: eschipul CC BY-SA 2.0*

If you’ve previously seen references to NRG Stadium, don’t be confused.

It’s the same building.

The stadium reverted to its original Reliant Stadium name in August 2026 after being known as NRG Stadium since 2014.

It opened in 2002 as the Texans’ home and was the first NFL stadium built with a retractable roof.

That roof materially changes the ticket-buying experience.

The roof removes a lot of weather anxiety

Houston can be hot and humid even when much of the NFL is moving into autumn.

At an open-air venue, that might influence whether you choose an afternoon game, shaded section or particular time of year.

Reliant Stadium is different.

The retractable roof can be closed and the building climate controlled.

The final roof decision is made on game day based on factors including temperature, rain, cloud and wind.

For a visitor, that means weather should generally play a much smaller role in deciding when to buy than it does in Cleveland, Pittsburgh or Green Bay.

Lower level — proximity comes at a premium

Lower-level sideline sections provide the closest conventional views of the action.

As with most NFL venues, midfield locations tend to command the strongest prices.

If you’re comparing corners and end zones, look carefully at how far around the bowl you are rather than assuming every lower-level seat is automatically superior.

Loge and club seating

The stadium includes substantial club and premium inventory.

These tickets can provide upgraded amenities and climate-controlled spaces depending on the product.

If you’re paying a meaningful premium, check precisely what access is included.

Upper level — where Houston’s value becomes interesting

Because the overall Texans get-in price is currently fairly low, upper-level tickets can provide an inexpensive route into live NFL football.

But this is also why we’d compare upgrades.

If a materially better section costs only a modest amount more, Houston may be one of the markets where moving down a level makes sense.

Tailgating at a Texans Game

Houston’s game-day culture is worth planning around rather than arriving only in time for kickoff.

Official stadium parking lots generally open four hours before the game, giving supporters a substantial tailgating window.

The Texans also regulate access to the Reliant Park property on game days: fans need either a game ticket or a designated tailgate ticket to enter the grounds.

So if tailgating is part of why you’re attending, treat it as part of the ticket-day plan rather than something you’ll simply wander into from outside.

We’d arrive early, particularly for a first Texans game.

Four hours of parking-lot build-up followed by the game itself creates a much fuller NFL experience than walking through the turnstiles ten minutes before kickoff.

Getting to Reliant Stadium

Reliant Stadium sits south of downtown Houston rather than in the city centre.

But public transport gives visitors an alternative to driving.

METRORail is the obvious option without a car

Houston’s METRORail operates for Texans home games.

For someone staying near a useful rail connection, that can be considerably simpler than dealing with stadium parking and post-game traffic.

If you’re driving, organise parking beforehand

Reliant Park contains multiple large parking areas, but a pre-paid parking pass is the sensible approach.

Lots open several hours before kickoff because tailgating forms such a large part of the game-day culture.

Rideshare is available too

The stadium has a designated taxi and rideshare location near Yellow Lot 35.

If you’re staying elsewhere in Houston and don’t want to navigate rail or parking, rideshare is another practical option.

Biggest Houston Texans Games

Indianapolis Colts — the divisional matchup with history

Houston and Indianapolis have spent the Texans’ entire existence together in the AFC South.

That makes the Colts one of the franchise’s most familiar opponents.

The remaining 2026 meeting is also Thursday Night Football, which gives the fixture more appeal than a standard divisional game.

Jacksonville Jaguars — London and Houston in one season

Texans–Jaguars has an unusual 2026 story.

The first meeting took place at Wembley Stadium in London.

The second takes place in Houston in December.

For UK-based NFL fans in particular, that creates an interesting connection between a game that happened locally and the return fixture in Texas.

Our NFL London Tickets guide covers the Wembley side of the season.

Tennessee Titans — the historical connection

Houston and Tennessee share more than a division.

The Titans franchise previously played in Houston as the Oilers before relocating.

That history adds another layer to the matchup beyond the current AFC South standings.

The 2026 home game also lands in Week 18, potentially adding significant postseason implications.

Dallas Cowboys — the Texas matchup

Dallas isn’t a divisional rival, and the teams don’t meet every season.

But when they do, geography creates obvious demand.

The 2026 meeting at Reliant Stadium brought together Texas’ two NFL franchises and is a good reminder that some of Houston’s strongest ticket demand can come from outside the AFC South.

Houston Texans Playoff Tickets

Houston’s current regular-season ticket prices should not be used as a guide to playoff pricing.

If the Texans secure a home postseason game, demand broadens beyond ordinary regular-season buyers and the amount of available inventory changes.

There is another consideration: speculative playoff listings can appear before Houston’s seed, opponent or even home game is certain.

Always check the ticket conditions carefully.

If your purchase depends on a specific round being played at Reliant Stadium, you need to understand what happens if Houston does not host it.

Once the fixture is confirmed, pricing can move quickly.

A Wild Card game is one market.

A Divisional Round game is another.

And an AFC Championship in Houston would represent a completely different level of demand.

Our NFL Playoff Tickets guide explains postseason ticketing in more detail, while our AFC Championship Tickets guide covers the conference final.

Yes, if Houston qualifies and postseason inventory becomes available. Check the conditions carefully when buying before the exact opponent and home venue are confirmed.

Find Houston Texans Tickets

Houston currently offers an appealing combination: relatively accessible ticket prices, an indoor/outdoor stadium experience and several meaningful remaining games.

For a night-game atmosphere at a reasonable price, we’d look at Indianapolis.

For a recognisable non-divisional opponent, Baltimore stands out.

For potential late-season significance, Jacksonville deserves watching.

And if you’re choosing purely on the NFL experience, arrive early enough to tailgate rather than treating the ticket as only three hours inside the stadium.

Choose the Texans game you genuinely want — then compare the available sections and total price.
