NFL and Apple Music pay for the set, special effects, as well as extras. In some cases, this cost has been in the $15 million range, SI noted. Reportedly, The Weeknd spent $7 million of his own money, though this is unconfirmed, towards elaborate stages for his performance.
The NFL does not pay artists more since the league argues that the Super Bowl halftime show performance grants massive exposure. Reportedly, the largest paid concert to date has had an attendance of 225,173.
Meanwhile, in 2024, 123 million Americans watched Super Bowl LVIII, as per NFL.
