Super charge
If you’re hoping to score some last-minute Super Bowl LVIII tix to see the Chiefs take on the 49ers this Sunday, your big game budget better be as stacked as some ad agencies', with prices rising above $10k-per-ticket — the highest on record.
This year’s championship game is taking place in Las Vegas for the first time ever, as the ultra high-spec Allegiant Stadium is set to host ~65,000 football fans (Taylor Swift likely among them), as well as a half-time show from Usher and pre- and mid-game performances from Post Malone & Tiësto.

Of course, Super Bowl ticket prices vary across vendors, but hikes have been seen across several platforms as the world of sports continues to mirror the “gigflation” trend observed by American concert-goers last year. Indeed, sports tickets soared 15% year-over-year in December, according to BLS data, while getting a seat for an NFL game typically cost almost 9% more in 2023 than the year before.
On TickPick, an online marketplace where fans can buy and sell tickets fee-free, some premium Super Bowl seats are reportedly available for as much as $41,818, with the average ticket listing on the site spiking to $11,060 some 13 days before the event, 93% more than the cost of tickets at the same point in 2019.
