We’re officially into the final stretch: Super Bowl LX (Patriots vs. Seahawks) kicks off Sunday, Feb. 8, 2026 at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara. And while the get-in price is still massive, the bigger story developing on the resale market is clear — prices are trending down as game day approaches, especially across the “core” inventory band where most fans actually shop.
To show what’s changed, we compared today’s Ticket Club inventory snapshot (taken Thursday morning 2/5) with data from just after the matchup was set following the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks victories in the AFC and NFC Championship games.
The result: Super Bowl ticket prices have seen a meaningful reset across the entire market. The “get-in” price for a ticket has fallen by nearly 30%, with the typical price falling even more than that. Ticket prices are still sky-high compared to historical averages, but they seem to be moving in the direction most fans who have been holding out would want to see: more affordability.

Market trend since the matchup was set (1/25 → 2/5)
- Get-in price: $5,969 → $4,350 (-27%)
- Median (typical) price: $9,553 → $6,212.50 (-35%)
- Typical shopping band (10th–90th percentile): $7,398–$18,400 → $4,836–$11,554 (low end -35%, high end -37%)
- Tickets Listed for Sale: (+68%)
What this means for buyers: the floor is still expensive (it’s the Super Bowl), but the market is no longer “testing the ceiling.” As more inventory enters the marketplace, sellers are adjusting to reality — and that’s creating windows where fans can upgrade seat locations for far less than they would have paid when the matchup first locked.
What could your Super Bowl ticket budget get you?
So what does your budget actually buy right now? At the true get-in level (around $4,350 as of 2/5), you’re almost always looking at a “just get in the building” seat — typically an upper level (400s) ticket, most often in an end zone or corner bucket and usually not the premium lower rows. That’s the price point where the market is basically saying: you can be there for the Super Bowl atmosphere, but you’re paying for entry more than sightline. If your goal is simply to say you were in the stadium, this is the lane — and the tradeoff is distance from the field and (often) higher rows within the upper deck.
Move up into the bottom of the “typical” band (roughly $4,836 on the low end of the 10–90% range), and the experience usually gets more “choosy.” In that range, you’ll still be shopping heavily in the upper deck, but you’re more likely to find seats that are cleaner locations — for example, closer to the front half of the 400 level or in an upper-level section where the angle is better (more corner-to-sideline than deep end zone). You’re not suddenly out of the nosebleeds — you’re simply moving from “whatever is cheapest” into the first band where you can compare options and pick the better view within the same level.
If you’re trying to make a real leap in experience, the big threshold is what it takes to reach the lower bowl. Right now, entry 100-level seats begin around $5,362, which means a relatively modest bump from the upper-deck “core” band can sometimes put you in the lower bowl — but usually in end zone/corner areas first. Meanwhile, the “front-row of the upper deck / best upper-level experience” money tends to live closer to the upper-end of the 400-level median (think roughly the mid-$5k range) and overlaps with some entry 300-level options. In practice, that creates a useful decision: do you want the closest possible seat (entry 100-level), or the best angle and comfort within the upper tiers (better 300s/400s), where the view can feel more complete even if you’re farther away?
Where the best opportunities are showing up
Broadly, the most meaningful drops have shown up in the seat areas fans care about most: the 100/200/300 levels where you’re shopping for view quality and atmosphere, not luxury hospitality. If you’re deciding whether you’re making the trip to Santa Clara, this is the week when pricing often becomes “decision-ready” — more stable tiers, more options, and clearer value gaps between adjacent sections.
-
- Best “get in the door” zones: upper sections in the 400 level (especially corners/end areas) continue to anchor the lowest entry pricing.
- Best “upgrade windows” right now: many 300 and 200 level sections are pricing closer to (or even overlapping) what was formerly “upper-tier” inventory right after the matchup was set.
- Lower bowl shoppers: pricing is down materially from the post-matchup period, but varies widely section-to-section — it’s worth comparing adjacent sections before you buy.

Bottom line for fans
The Super Bowl is never going to feel “cheap,” but the data shows the market is becoming meaningfully more buyer-friendly than it was immediately after the matchup locked. If you’re planning to travel, this is the week to shop with intention:
- Shop the tier you can afford (then compare adjacent sections inside it).
- Look for upgrade overlap — especially where 300s and 200s start to crowd into the same price lanes.
- When you find a price you can live with in a section you like, don’t assume it lasts. Even in a dropping market, the best-value seats tend to disappear as plans get finalized.
