Super Bowl 59 is rapidly approaching, and if you're planning to be one of the people inside Caesars Superdome for the game, the time may be now to buy your ticket.

Hundreds of millions of people tune in to see who will be NFL's champions, but only about 76,000 people will be able to experience the game in-person, a once-in-a-lifetime experience for some people. With history on the line between the  Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs, there are plenty of reasons to want to attend this year's game in-person.

While it will cost a hefty penny to watch inside the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, the good news is tickets prices have dramatically dropped in recent days, meaning buyers could be saving thousands of dollars if they waited to purchase.

"Pricing has come down pretty drastically, but I think there's still a lot of demand in general," Brett Goldberg, co-CEO of TickPick, told USA TODAY Sports.

How much do Super Bowl 59 tickets cost?

This year's Super Bowl tickets are at lower prices compared to the same point as last year, according to TickPick. The average ticket price is $6,645, per TickPick, significantly less than last year.

Last year, the average price was around $9,365 on the secondary market the day before the game, according to TickPick.

It now cost less than $4,000 to get into the Caesars Superdome. With four days left before kickoff, the cheapest ticket to the game can be found on TickPick for an all-in price of $3,374, as of Wednesday evening.

• StubHub: $2,674 ($3,612 with fees).

• TickPick: $3,374 all-in.

• SeatGeek: $2,649 ($3,586 with fees).

• Gametime: $2,548 ($3,540 with fees).

• Ticketmaster: $3,258 ($3,950 with fees).

• TicketSmarter: $2,957 ($3,844 with fees).

• Vivid Seats: $2,622 ($3,617 with fees).

Obviously, the cheapest tickets in the stadium will be further away from the action, like the 600 sections on the end zone sides.

While the prices may seem too much, they've actually gone down thousands of dollars since last week − a 41.4% decrease, to be exact; it was rare to find a ticket that was less than $5,000 after fees on Wednesday.

Why are Super Bowl 2025 tickets so expensive?

Super Bowl ticket prices have continued to climb as the years have gone on, and several factors, from who the teams are and their history in title games, could help the cost fluctuate. But one reason they are slightly cheaper than last year is because the 2024 game was in Las Vegas. Given the tourist destination that it is, there was incredible demand to be in the Sin City.

"Vegas was this anomaly," Goldberg said. "They just brought a different energy. It was the first time it was ever there. The destination itself was really appealing."

However, there are some reasons why this year's game is still expensive, even for teams that have been the game several times in the past decade. It is a Super Bowl 57 rematch, giving Philadelphia fans a chance to get revenge on the team that beat them in 2023. On the flip side, Kansas City could become the first team in league history to win three consecutive Super Bowls. In fact, ticket prices are hovering around the same level as Super Bowl 57.

Super Bowl 59 ticket trends

There's been a heavy flock of Pennsylvania residents booking their tickets to the game. StubHub reported fans in the state are responsible for the most of the out-of-state purchases. StubHub added the average purchase price for tickets is $7,392, about the same as two years ago.

When is the best time to get tickets for Super Bowl 59?

Ticket prices are typically the highest in the first hours and days following the conference championships due to the teams being known and a major rush to secure tickets. Now that the initial buzz is gone and prices have dropped by the thousands, it may now be a good time to look at tickets.

"It's really good for the fans that want to be going to the game," Goldberg said.

Goldberg recommends setting a budget for how much a person wants to pay for tickets, and if they are in that range, then it's a good time to buy. He also recommends taking into account service fees and taxes some secondary markets don't show when scrolling through options.

But if there's one risky move to do, it is waiting until the last days before the game. In recent years, prices have actually risen one-to-two days before the game, making it harder to just sit and wait until it's hours until game time.

"Could you get a great deal an hour before? Possible," Goldberg said. "Could it be so little supply that prices end up being higher than they are now? Easily could happen."
