"We believe we've settled on a fair level of pricing for what is the biggest event New Zealand will host since [the] Rugby World Cup 2011.
"A family of four will be able to see the British and Irish Lions take on their Super Rugby team for under $160, while the tests are priced at about the level of a Rugby World Cup quarter-final or other major international event.
"We believe we've got the balance right - we want to encourage as many New Zealanders as possible to embrace this unique rugby experience as we welcome the legions of Lions fans to our shores once again."
More than 20,000 Lions fans are expected to descend on New Zealand during the series.
"We're aiming at having at least 250,000 tickets across the 10 matches available to buy. The remaining tickets are being sold through official travel and hospitality packages. We're already seeing significant demand for tickets in the UK and Ireland with Lions Rugby Travel likely to sell out their allocation of tickets as part of their Supporter Tours packages."
