The Super Bowl is one of the year’s most anticipated events for football fans and sports enthusiasts alike. The event has come a long way from its humble beginnings in 1967 when a ticket to the game cost just $10, equivalent to just over $90 in today’s dollars, as informed by CBS News.
As the San Francisco 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs prepare to face off in the 2024 Super Bowl on Sunday, February 11, ticket sales are surging. According to StubHub, a fifth of tickets have been purchased in the last three days, and sales have risen 7% since Tuesday. According to the ticket marketplace, this percentage is expected to increase daily as Sunday draws closer.

Typically, according to ticket resale site Seat Geek, Super Bowl ticket prices jump immediately after the conference championship games, played on January 29, then fall as the game nears. Currently, the cheapest face-value tickets for this year’s Super Bowl sold directly by the NFL were about $2,000. However, that price is after fans, including season ticket holders, win the chance to fork over several grand to buy them via a lottery system.
So, how much do the cheapest Super Bowl tickets cost for 2024? It’s anyone’s guess at this point. However, if the upward trend in ticket sales continues, prices will likely continue to rise. Regardless of the cost, fans will undoubtedly be eager to attend the game and witness history in the making.
