Like every year, too much. But this year, Super Bowl 58 ticket prices are currently at historic levels.

It's the most expensive Super Bowl on record, according to SeatGeek and TickPick, with average prices ranging from $9,815 to $12,082 on the secondary markets. For reference, it is 70% more expensive than Super Bowl 57's average ticket price of $5,795, TickPick said.

Even if you want to pay the minimum for a Super Bowl ticket on a secondary market, it will still cost close to five figures.

The cheapest ticket to the game can be found on TickPick, which costs $8,414 − including fees − as of Monday afternoon. The cheapest tickets for Allegiant Stadium will be further away from the action, like the 300 sections on the endzone sides and the corners of the 400 level.
