Beer and hot dog prices vary wildly across the NFL, and this season’s gap is bigger than you might expect.
Based on published venue pricing for the 2026 season, combining the cost of one beer and one hot dog ranges from just $10.86 in Atlanta to $26.35 in Washington, a difference of more than $15 for the same basic concession run.
The league-wide average combined cost sits at $18.50.
These figures are calculated from each stadium’s published pricing for a standard 16-ounce beer and a hot dog.
Prices can vary by specific beer brand, hot dog vendor location, and stadium section, so treat these as representative baseline prices rather than the only option at each venue.

Atlanta and Cleveland Anchor the Bargain End
The Falcons have leaned into cheap concessions since Mercedes-Benz Stadium opened in 2017, a pricing philosophy owner Arthur Blank built the venue around from day one, and it still shows nearly a decade later.
Atlanta’s $2.07 hot dog is the cheapest single item anywhere on this list, and it isn’t a one-off loss leader either, since the Falcons’ beer price also lands well below the league average.
Cleveland isn’t far behind, with a modest $7.39 beer and $3.53 hot dog rounding out the two cheapest stadiums in the league.
Denver and Arizona tie for third at $13.74 combined, both leaning on affordable beer pricing to offset slightly higher hot dog costs.
None of the four cheapest teams currently rank among the league’s most expensive tickets either, which tracks with a broader pattern: franchises that price concessions aggressively low tend to build that same value approach into the rest of the gameday experience.
Washington and Las Vegas Sit at the Top
Washington’s $17.05 beer is the single most expensive beer in the league, more than double what fans pay in Cincinnati, and it pushes the Commanders to the priciest combined total at $26.35.
Las Vegas isn’t far off at $26.11, driven by the second-highest beer price in the league at $15.50 alongside a hot dog that also cracks the top five most expensive.
The two Los Angeles teams, sharing SoFi Stadium, tie for the same $24.82 total, while both New York teams at MetLife Stadium also tie exactly at $22.23.
That’s a useful reminder that shared venues produce identical concession pricing regardless of which team is technically hosting, so a Jets fan and a Giants fan pay the exact same price for the exact same beer on any given Sunday.
How This Compares to What Fans Already Pay to Get In
Concession prices are only part of the total cost of a Sunday at the stadium, and they don’t always move in the same direction as ticket prices.
Washington and Las Vegas sit near the top of this concessions list, but neither cracked the priciest tier when Sportscasting broke down Week 1 ticket prices across all 16 games earlier this season, where the Seahawks’ Kickoff Game against New England and the Cowboys’ trip to MetLife Stadium topped the board instead.
That disconnect is worth keeping in mind for anyone budgeting a trip.
A cheap ticket doesn’t guarantee a cheap day at the stadium, and vice versa, since ticket demand is driven by matchup and market size while concession pricing is set independently by each team’s own food and beverage partners.
Watching the Standings While You Wait in Line
Plenty of fans paying these prices are doing so with one eye on the bigger picture.
Contenders tend to sell out concession stands faster than rebuilding teams, and this year’s NFL Super Bowl odds already show a clear gap between the teams fans are traveling to see and the ones drawing smaller road crowds.
The same goes for the individual awards races that tend to drive ticket and merchandise demand at specific stadiums.
A hot MVP candidate or a breakout rookie can turn an otherwise ordinary regular-season Sunday into a hot ticket, which is exactly the kind of thing tracked in the NFL MVP odds and Offensive Rookie of the Year odds throughout the season.
A Note on Rising Prices
Concession costs have climbed alongside ticket prices across the league in recent years, and stadium renovations or new builds tend to push prices higher almost immediately.
Buffalo’s new Highmark Stadium is the clearest example on this list, carrying the most expensive hot dog in the league at $11.63 apiece in its first full season of operation.
Expect these figures to keep drifting upward as more franchises open premium new venues over the next several seasons.
Every new stadium built in the league over the last decade has opened with higher concession prices than the building it replaced, and there’s no indication that trend is about to reverse.
