What Does A Chicago Bears Game At Soldier Field Actually Cost

Does paying a bunch of money for the NFL gameday experience hurt any less when your team is winning games? That's a question Chicago Bears fans might be asking themselves after checking out some of the prices in a new report ranking the most expensive stadiums in the NFL.

Keep in mind that the Chicago Bears have a winning record and seem to be headed in the right direction after years of futility.

According to Bovada Sportsbook's 2026 NFL Stadium Report, Soldier Field is the fourth-most-expensive NFL stadium for a gameday experience, with an estimated total cost of $505.42 for a ticket and parking. And that doesn't even include the cost of food and drinks.

Here's What They Looked At To Come Up With The Rankings

Bovada analyzed stadium costs across the league, looking at ticket prices, parking, beer and hot dogs. The results suggest that watching the Bears in person isn't exactly a budget-friendly way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

The average ticket price used in the study for Soldier Field was $458.17, while the least expensive available parking averaged $28. That's a pretty hefty investment before you even make it through the stadium gates.

When it comes to getting hungry or thirsty, Bovada found that a beer at Soldier Field costs $11.25, while an adult-sized hot dog runs $8. Put those together, and you're looking at another $19.25.

The Bears Are Far From Being The Only NFL Team That Has Fans Digging Deep Into Their Wallets

The Philadelphia Eagles topped the rankings, with a reported gameday cost of $585.85. Detroit's Ford Field came in second at $513.28, followed by Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas at $505.78.

The Bears' spot near the top of the list may not come as a huge surprise. Soldier Field has the smallest seating capacity in the NFL, limiting the supply of tickets available to fans. And when demand is high, ticket prices tend to follow.

At the other end of the spectrum, Cleveland's Huntington Bank Field offered the league's least expensive experience, with a reported total cost of just $197.56.

Keep in mind that Bovada's overall cost ranking combines ticket and parking prices, while beer and hot dog prices are reported separately. So that $505.42 figure doesn't include your concessions.

Still, you have to ask yourself this: Is watching your team win worth paying some of the NFL's highest prices? After years of waiting for a consistently competitive team, Chicago fans seem to be a lot more willing to open their wallets these days.
