The cost of tickets for this year’s Super Bowl, featuring the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers, may even cause millionaire Taylor Swift to be surprised.
The 58th Super Bowl will take place on Sunday, February 11 in Las Vegas, with the game starting at 6:30 p.m. ET. It will be broadcasted on CBS and can also be streamed on Paramount+.
The current lowest price for this year’s game is ,188, which is over 50% higher than the lowest ticket price during this time last year for the Super Bowl, which was ,997.
According to TickPick, the 2020 Super Bowl was the priciest one ever, with an average ticket price of ,370. However, this year’s game is 35% more expensive than that.
According to TickPick, the most expensive Super Bowl on record is currently the February 11 game. The average price is approximately ,800, which is a 70% increase from last year’s game.
“In the past year, Las Vegas has been establishing itself as the leading sports destination in the United States. This could be its defining moment,” he stated. The city of Nevada hosted a Formula 1 race in November.
If you’re searching for discounted tickets, it’s not worth it. According to Goldberg, although there’s a chance prices may decrease in the next two weeks, they didn’t go down before the 2020 Super Bowl game when both teams were in it before.
The Chiefs, reigning Super Bowl champions, are advancing to the championship game for the fourth time in the past five years. Their previous encounter with the 49ers in the Super Bowl was in 2020, where they staged a comeback and emerged victorious.
According to Goldberg, although there may be a decrease in prices, it may not be substantial.
A significant contributor to the excessively high prices is the city of Las Vegas. According to Brett Goldberg, co-CEO of TickPick, the city’s location is a major factor driving the record-high demand. This is because it turns a three-hour game into a week-long celebration for attending fans.
Typically, ticket prices may decrease as the game date approaches, as resellers aim to sell their seats for cheaper. TickPick observed this trend last year, citing “fatigue” among certain Chiefs fans, but Goldberg believes the city may be able to persuade fans to attend regardless.
