Looking for last-minute tickets to the Super Bowl? Plus, how much an NFL suite would cost
Taylor Swift is heading to the Super Bowl to support the Kansas City Chiefs and for Swifties looking for last-minute tickets, it's going to cost a cool four-to-six digits.
Resale prices on VividSeats are hovering between $2,800 and $5,000 for one seat.
The majority of Caesars Superdome will be filled with Philadelphia Eagles fans, according to the site's fan forecast. The ticket marketplace projects 56% of the crowd will root for the birds.
'Glitter & Gold': Order the special edition about Swift and Kelce's love story
Swift — who is rooting for the Chiefs — will more than likely be on the club level. Last year, her Allegiant Stadium suite cost $3 million, according to a comment made by the singer's boyfriend Travis Kelce.
"The Super Bowl is the busiest time of the year with clients asking for last-minute seats," says Simon David, the managing director for Confirmed360, a concierge agency that connects high-end clients with rare seats. "The demand picks up during the playoffs in early January when people think their team has an opportunity to make it."
Simon has seen the latest numbers for Caesars Superdome suites bouncing between $500,000 and $3 million.
"It's obvious people want to be a part of witnessing history unfold," he says, referencing the Chiefs going for a three-peat victory. "You also can't ignore the Taylor Swift effect."
Watching from home
For the fans watching the Super Bowl from their couches, the average household is expected to spend $142 — up from $116 last year — according to a LendingTree survey. From snacks to fan gear, the online marketplace asked more than 2,000 Americans about their game day spending.
The Taylor Swift effect? NFL says women make up almost half of audience.
"It's not a huge amount, but when some people are living paycheck-to-paycheck, it's not nothing either," says Matt Schultz, the chief credit analyst of LendingTree. "We keep an eye on how people are spending money. In this case, we asked specifically on the Super Bowl, and it's the second year we've asked about the impact of Taylor Swift."
The study found the singer's love story with Kelce has sparked greater interest in the sport for 14% of Americans. According to LendingTree, 20% have been influenced to spend more on football and the Super Bowl — especially Gen Zers (39%) and Millennials (21%).

Buccaneers' Star WR Makes Subtle Name Change to Honor Father

Buccaneers' Star WR Makes Subtle Name Change to Honor Father originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Tampa Bay Buccaneers star wide receiver Chris Godwin has had quite a journey the last couple of seasons. Advertisement And it doesn't have anything to do with football. Godwin lost his father a little over a calendar year ago, and is now honoring him as Father's Day approaches. He's also heading into his first Father's Day from the other side of it ... as a father. It's no doubt an emotional journey for Godwin, who issued a press release announcing that he's adding Jr. to be back of his jersey in honor of his late father. "As I kid I enjoyed an amazing relationship with my dad, Rod Christopher Godwin, Sr. From youth football through high school, I always knew that he was there because I would hear him yelling in support of his son. He instilled in me early that I could achieve anything I wanted if I worked hard enough and treated people with respect. I always appreciated and valued the immeasurable impact he had on my life, and I made sure to let him know that every day, not just on Father's Day. I lost my Pops in January of 2024, and Father's Day last year was a time of reflection and introspection. Advertisement "This year, Father's Day represents a full circle moment in my life journey as I get to celebrate being a first-time dad with my son, Ace. Fatherhood has already been an unbelievable experience and has changed me in so many ways. I can only hope that Ace feels the same way about me as I do about my dad. "As a professional athlete, you are always recognized for the name on the front of your jersey, but I also play for the name that's printed on the back. That's why I have chosen to add 'Jr.' to my name in honor of the man who gave so unselfishly of himself to others and helped mold me into who I am today. "Love you, Pops!" As Godwin is coming off a horrible injury last season that could affect his readiness to play in Week 1, he'll no doubt be proud when he does finally take the field with "Jr." after his name on his Buccaneers jersey, after honoring his late father, Rod Christopher Godwin Sr. Advertisement Related: Ex Bucs QB Tom Brady Offers Post-Draft Advice to Shedeur Sanders Related: Buccaneers Have Clear Focus for 2025 Improvement This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jun 12, 2025, where it first appeared.
