In a day and age where music festivals are a dime a dozen, it takes a true all-star lineup to catch the attention of music lovers, and the iHeartRadio Music Festival has managed to do that yet again in 2015. This year's festival, which will take place September 18 and 19 in Paradise, Nevada, features major headlining superstars like Nick Jonas, Kanye West, Fall Out Boy, Sam Smith, Coldplay, Janet Jackson, Demi Lovato, The Weeknd, Tove Lo, Jason Derulo and Prince Royce. Both nights are entirely sold out on the primary market for the Vegas area music festival.
Although you can test your luck and enter to win tickets to the festival weekend, that is not the only option as last-minute buyers are still able to purchase tickets from the secondary market. Currently, a ticket for Friday night at the iHeartRadio Music Festival is averaging at $696 with a get-in price of $202, and a Saturday ticket is slightly higher at $751, with a get-in ticket price of $140, according to data provided by TiqIQ.

A handful of the festival headliners will be taking a break from their own tours, including Janet Jackson, who kicked off a massive world-wide "Unbreakable" tour on August 31, and Nick Jonas, who started his tour run on September 6. Jackson's tour marks her first since 2011, and has been pricey on the secondary market. Across all of her North American dates, the average price to see Janet Jackson's Unbreakable tour is $193. The singer's October 16 stop in Los Angeles is currently her priciest show, and has an average ticket price of $569. Nick Jonas, who was recently heralded as "the next Justin Timberlake" by rapper Jay-Z, has also embarked on a solo tour he's coining "Live in Concert." Jonas will also be hopping on a few dates with Kelly Clarkson, and tickets to see Nick Jonas are currently averaging $92.
Last year's festival lineup included artists like Taylor Swift, Coldplay, Usher, and Zac Brown Band, and the average secondary ticket price was $646 for both dates.
