Kansas City chiefs could make history this weekend, but ticket prices do not reflect this.
The cheapest ticket for The Super Bowl Lix in New Orleans fell below $ 4,000 on the secondary market, according to the tickpick dealer, marking a 30% drop in last week – and more than 50% cheaper Compared to the Super Bowl Record last year.
The chefs, who Facing the Eagles of Philadelphia on Sunday, hope to be the first team to win three successive rings of the Super Bowl. Despite this historic feat on the line, fans are not excited to crush large dollars.
There are some potential reasons linked to the host city of this year – and perhaps a slight dose of fatigue of the chiefs.
Last year’s match between the Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers was the most expensive Super Bowl ever recorded, in part because it took place in the Mecca of the Las Vegas party for the first time. However, New Orleans “does not have the same call” as Las Vegas, said CEO of Tickpick, Brett Goldberg.
New Orleans’ largest capacity of seats also increases prices, said Goldberg. The Superdome Caesars has around 74,000 seats, while the alleging stadium in Las Vegas has around 65,000 seats. The host city is also still in shock from a terrorist attack last month when a man led a van in a crowd and opened fire, Kill 14 people and hurt at least 35.
Then there is the match itself. Football fans are bored by a third consecutive offer of the Super Bowl des Chiefs, which allowed Tickpick to “see less interest from fans looking to attend,” Goldberg told CNN. “If the Lions of Detroit, Washington Commanders or Buffalo bills had been so far, it would be a very different story with regard to current prices.”
Although Super Bowl tickets do not set recordings, long -awaited television advertisements are. Fox sold At least 10 of its Super Bowl commercial spots for more than $ 8 million each, a person with direct knowledge of the case confirmed CNN. The network initially requested around $ 7 million for 30 seconds of advertising time during the match.
The 8 million dollars agreements were concluded relatively recently, said the source, after some expected sponsors sought to abandon their schedule for announcements.
The kick -off of Super Bowl Lix planned at 6.30 p.m. on Sunday. The game is broadcast on Fox and, in a first, is streaming free on Tubi.
