CBS: The Super Bowl is nearly sold out

September 10, 2012

Share |

Some five months before kickoff, and just one game into the regular season, the Super Bowl is approaching a sellout.

CBS has moved more than 90 percent of ad inventory for the game, at a record price of $3.7 million to $3.8 million per 30-second spot, according to USA Today.

By comparison, last year’s game, which also sold out early for NBC, averaged a then-record price of $3.5 million per spot.

Though General Motors said earlier this year that it will not buy space in the game, auto is expected to be strong, with Hyundai and Kia already confirming they will be back.

Other repeat advertisers include Pepsi, Coca-Cola, FritoLay and Anheuser-Busch.
