Super Bowl 58: The Most Expensive Ticket in History – What’s Driving the High Prices?

  • by

Super Bowl 58 is on track to have the highest-priced tickets ever. If you plan on attending, be prepared to spend big as it is expected to be the most costly Super Bowl yet.

As of Thursday, the lowest priced single ticket available on the ticket resale site TickPick was $8,000. This ticket would provide you with a seat in the upper 300 section, although the site does mention that the purchase does guarantee a seat.

If the current prices remain the same, this year's Super Bowl ticket could become the most expensive one ever sold. The previous record was set in 2020, when the average ticket price was $6,370. The main reason for the high price that year was the fact that the home team, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, was playing in the game. However, this year, the home team is not playing in the Super Bowl.

The upcoming Super Bowl will be the first one ever held in Las Vegas. Ticket experts believe this unique location is causing prices to rise as fans are eager to enjoy a weekend in Sin City and attend the renowned sporting event.

In case you were curious, the average price of a ticket to the inaugural Super Bowl was $12.

The location of the game plays a significant role in attracting 49er fans. According to StubHub, 26 percent of ticket sales come from California, as fans from there have a shorter distance to travel to support their team. In contrast, Kansas and Missouri account for only 7 percent of ticket sales on the website.

Let's also consider the influence of Taylor Swift! Her presence at the event could attract a larger number of female fans than usual.

Regardless of how you enter, Allegiant Stadium, with a capacity of 65,000 seats, will be completely full. Super Bowl 58 is scheduled to start at 6:30PM ET on Sunday, February 11.
