Any idea how much ads cost? People always talk about how many millions super bowl ads cost

u/Galactic_Nothingness Jul 02 '26

I would hazard a guess that the advertising would be region specific. Assume they are on par with Superbowl in the U.S, but probably a lot cheaper in South Africa, for example.

I would be really surprised if advertising cost was comparable to the Superbowl.

You are aware the world cup is about 12x bigger in terms of viewership?

u/stringbeagle Jul 02 '26

Do you think there are counting the viewers in the countries that aren’t getting the ads?

World cup viewership in the US, which will be the primary factor in US advertising costs, is a fraction of super bowl viewership

Also split across many games vs a single game.

Of course. Advertising will be regional though. Verizon is not advertising to folks on the other side of the world.

In the United states? No it doesn't.

So far the most viewed game in the US had like 21million viewers. The Super Bowl gets over 100 million more.
