With just a few hours until Super Bowl LVI, here’s a look at the brands expected to run commercials in the Big Game.

NBC announced on Feb. 3 that it was officially sold out of commercial time, with 30 seconds of air time fetching as much as $7 million in some instances.

Categories that were still in recovery mode during the Super Bowl last year like autos and travel, have returned in full force in 2022. This year’s game also marks the return of Budweiser, which sat out of the game last year.

The 2022 game will follow a similar trend of last year, with a large swath of first-time advertisers buying in, including Planet Fitness, FTX, Crypto.com, Carvana and Caesars Sportsbook, among others.

Ad Age’s definition of a Super Bowl commercial includes all national spots between the coin toss and end of play.

The game will air on Feb. 13 on NBC and on its streaming platform Peacock.

The spot, directed by Academy Award-winner Chloé Zhao, shows a Clydesdale galloping through an open Western landscape before tripping on a barbed wire fence, suffering a leg injury. A yellow lab looks on, barking its concern. A stableman and vet nurse the horse back to health (and drink Budweisers in one scene).

Bud Light Hard Seltzer Soda tapped Food Network star Guy Fieri for its spot. The variety recently hit stores and comes in flavors like cherry cola and orange soda.
