Eye-watering average amount Super Bowl tickets actually cost

Suddenly watching it at home on TV doesn't seem so bad...

NFL fans are in for a treat today as the Kansas City Chiefs take on the Philadelphia Eagles in the hugely anticipated 2025 Super Bowl final - one of the global sporting calendar’s biggest events.

Many of us are tuning in from the comfort of our own homes, while others have been lucky enough to bag a seat and catch the action in person at New Orleans’ Caesars Superdome.

Among those in attendance is none other than President Donald Trump, who said in a statement ahead of the big game: “I look forward to joining the fans in New Orleans for Super Bowl LIX to cheer on two great teams - the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles - as they battle for the National Football League’s Vince Lombardi Trophy.”

Taylor Swift, of course, is also there cheering on her beau Travis Kelce, having been spotted nervously awaiting kick-off in her skybox suite.

But the privilege of watching live in the stadium doesn’t come cheap - not that it’s a huge concern for the likes of Trump, obviously.

How much are tickets to the 2025 Super Bowl?

CBS reported that the cheapest Super Bowl seats are on the Superdome terrace - the stadium’s upper level - in the 20th row.

As of 6 February, those cost $3,000 a pop on Ticketmaster, although some nearby spots were going for as much as $4,982.

"The price of Super Bowl tickets on resale often fluctuates drastically based on the game's location, the matchup, seat location, and date of purchase," Ticketmaster explained in its on-site FAQs.

"Generally, the historical cost of the average Super Bowl resale ticket has ranged between $4,000 and $6,000."

Over on StubHub, similar seats were priced at at least $2,920 each, with some tickets on various online marketplaces also being offered for nearly $5,000.

And if you were after ticket packages sold directly by the NFL - including extras like meat-and-greets with football stars - those were starting at around $6,700 per person.

The prices vary hugely depending on the type of seat and where the ticket is being purchased, but, according to CBS, the average price of a Super Bowl ticket was $8,076 in the final weeks leading up to the final.

That said, those looking to bag a spot on the ground level near the Chiefs’ area were looking at around $8,650 on StubHub or $12,000 on Ticketmaster - although the week before, tickets cost from $14,414 and $22,663 on StubHub, and up to $18,800 on Ticketmaster.
