BBDO Leads Super Bowl 60 With Most Ads as Omnicom Network Expands

BBDO emerged as the most prolific creative agency at Super Bowl 60, producing the highest number of ads during this year’s Big Game.

The Omnicom-owned network was behind six commercials from major brands including Pepsi Zero Sugar, Instacart, Pringles, Budweiser, Oikos, and Wells Fargo. The strong showing comes months after Omnicom completed its $13.5 billion acquisition of Interpublic Group, a move that brought agency network FCB into its fold and expanded its roster of Super Bowl advertisers such as Budweiser.

BBDO’s total outpaced Stagwell-owned Anomaly, which placed four spots during the game for Bud Light, Kinder Bueno, Liquid I.V., and Grubhub. Last year, Wieden+Kennedy led Super Bowl 59 with five ads.

The six BBDO campaigns spanned a range of creative styles and sectors. Pepsi Zero Sugar positioned itself as a bold challenger brand in a spot referencing Coca-Cola’s iconic polar bear. Instacart returned to the Super Bowl with a celebrity-led commercial highlighting its new “preference picker” feature. Pringles marked its ninth consecutive Super Bowl appearance with a pop culture-driven ad centered on its brand mascot.

Budweiser celebrated its 150th anniversary with a cinematic commercial featuring its signature Clydesdales alongside patriotic imagery. Oikos expanded into the health and wellness category with a streaming-focused ad on Peacock. Wells Fargo rolled out a regional campaign highlighting everyday financial milestones, supported by a mix of local broadcasts, Spanish-language television, and national streaming placements.

Super Bowl 60 has been described as a peak moment for advertising demand. NBCUniversal sold out its commercial inventory by September 2025, marking the earliest sellout in Super Bowl history. Premium placements were reportedly priced at up to $10 million.

Industry estimates suggest that beyond media buying costs, many brands spent tens of millions of dollars more on production, celebrity endorsements, and post-game marketing amplification.
