Super Bowl LVI will be held on February 13, 2022, at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, home of the Los Angeles Rams and the Los Angeles Chargers, and marks the finale of the 2021 NFL season. The NFL season’s champion will be decided by a showdown between the teams that prevail in the AFC and NFC championship games.

The Super Bowl, which is annually held in February, is the most viewed television show in the United States, with commercial ad time fetching millions of dollars every 30-second block. It’s become something of a national holiday.

How Much is the Cheapest Seat at the Super Bowl?

Tickets for the Super Bowl are always in high demand, making them the most sought-after in all professional sports. Some fans are able to purchase tickets through their team or NFL On Location Experiences, but the bulk of fans that attend the game acquire their tickets through a secondary market.

Reselling tickets means that they are not being sold directly from the original source, and as a result, the price is determined by the demand for tickets, rather than the face value.

It’s very likely that fans will be able to get the greatest deals on tickets by purchasing them on the secondary market. Average Super Bowl ticket prices vary between $4,000 and $5,000 based on the matchup and when tickets are acquired, although that price ranges from matchup to matchup.

As the big game approaches, the cost of Super Bowl tickets tends to drop, but once the fixture is set, the price of tickets rises dramatically.

Consider the following examples of ticket prices from the past, including some that are comparable to today’s costs:
