Super Bowl XLV host committee hospitality packages sold out


The North Texas Super Bowl XLV Host Committee has sold the last of its hospitality ticket packages for February’s big game, committee officials said Monday. 
The committee had scheduled an event at Cowboys Stadium on Thursday to sell the remaining hospitality packages.
But before they could be offered to the public, the packages were snapped up by host committee members and volunteers who were given access to a pre-sale, said Tony Fay, vice president of communications for the host committee.
“We have a pretty large host committee who worked pretty diligently,” Fay said.
These ticket packages were the best chance for volunteers to see the game, so it’s not surprising they sold out so quickly, he said.
The hospitality packages included game tickets, a parking pass and tickets to the Host Committee’s Gala and Media Party.
Cost of the packages ranged from $2,550 to $6,550 per person.
Since the Thursday event has been canceled, anyone still interested in purchasing tickets to Super Bowl XLV must buy them from the NFL, Fay said.
“There are a lot of great ticket options much like the packages we were selling still available through NFL On Location,” he said.
Tickets to the Super Bowl can now only be purchased as part of a hospitality package, Fay said. The available packages are a small percentage of total Super Bowl tickets, he said.
“It’s considered a sell-out,” Fay said.
The remaining ticket options are available at nflsuperbowlaccess.com.
Host committee chairman Bill Lively said in an e-mail that only four luxury suites remain in the committee’s inventory to be sold before the Super Bowl.
