That’s just $7,000 less than the average price of a new car, [according to Cox Automotive](https://www.coxautoinc.com/insights/#snapshot "undefined"). According to SeatGeek, the high prices for this year's Super Bowl are likely due to the venue location. The Super Bowl will be held on Sunday, Feb. 11 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. Demand was similar two years ago when the event was held in Los Angeles, according to SeatGeek. Still, ticket pricing in 2022 was lower 12 days before the event, with the average ticket on their platform listed for $10,194\. Last year, the average ticket was sold for $8,867, and this year's average price is more than twice what it was for the Super Bowl in Atlanta in 2019\.
