The Super Bowl is still over a week away but brands have already been rolling out teasers for their campaigns.

The average price for a 30-second spot during last year’s game was a reported US$4.5 million.

This year, reports are putting ads from US president Donald Trump and running candidate Michael Bloomberg at US$10 million each, as the nation prepares for its presidential election later this year.

Also joining the game is Pop Tarts and Facebook. Both will be airing their first Super Bowl campaigns this year.

We’ve put together a list of all the Super Bowl ads that have been revealed. Check back regularly as we’ll be updating the list live on game day, February 3.
