The San Francisco 49ers and the Kansas City Chiefs are set to face off in the 2024 Super Bowl, which will take place in Las Vegas on February 11. The game will be televised on CBS and streamed on Paramount+. However, attending the game in person will come at a high cost, with the average ticket price currently at $12,082 on ticket resale website Seat Geek.
The cheapest ticket available on Seat Geek is currently priced at $9,858. This represents a 36% increase in average ticket prices compared to the same time period last year, and Seat Geek believes the location of the game is a significant factor in driving up prices.
This trend of high ticket prices has been observed in previous Super Bowl games held in popular travel destinations. In 2022, when Los Angeles hosted the game and their home team, the Rams, were playing, average ticket prices reached $10,322. Similarly, in 2021, when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers played in their home stadium against the Chiefs, the average ticket price was $11,840, despite reduced capacity due to COVID restrictions.
Here are the average resale ticket prices for the past five Super Bowl games, 13 days before the event, according to Seat Geek:

While Super Bowl ticket prices typically spike after the conference championship games, they tend to decline as the event draws nearer, according to Seat Geek. The majority of ticket sales are coming from California (27%), Texas (13%), Nevada (10%), Kansas City (7%), and Florida (5%).
The San Francisco 49ers have appeared in seven previous Super Bowls, winning five times in the 1980s and 90s. Their most recent appearance was in 2019 when they lost to the Chiefs. This year, they will be led by quarterback Brock Purdy. The defending champions, the Chiefs, will be led by two-time Super Bowl MVP Patrick Mahomes. The team gained additional attention this year with the presence of Taylor Swift, who is dating tight end Travis Kelce, in the box seats cheering on the team.
Fans are speculating whether Swift will be able to attend the Super Bowl, as she has a concert in Tokyo the day before the game. While it seems she would have enough time to make the journey, her travel plans are currently unknown.
Super Bowl LVIII will be broadcast live from Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada, on CBS and Nickelodeon, and will be streamed on Paramount+.
