Superbowl Sunday 2026 will take place on February 8 at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, marking the National Football League’s championship game for the 2025 season, according to the league. The event is expected to draw tens of millions of viewers worldwide and generate significant economic activity across the San Francisco Bay Area.
The game, officially known as Superbowl Sunday 2026 LX, will be hosted by the National Football League, which awarded the contest to the Bay Area in a prior owners’ vote. Levi’s Stadium, home of the San Francisco 49ers, previously hosted Super Bowl 50 in 2016.
NFL officials have said preparations will span several years, involving local and state agencies, transportation authorities, and public safety departments. Regional planners expect increased travel demand, enhanced security measures, and a week-long slate of league-sponsored events leading up to the game.
Broadcast rights for Superbowl Sunday 2026 LX will be held by NBC, continuing the NFL’s rotating media partnership schedule. The halftime show performer and participating teams will be announced closer to the event, following the conclusion of the 2025 regular season and playoffs.
Local officials said the game is expected to provide a substantial boost to tourism, hospitality, and small businesses, while also placing temporary pressure on infrastructure and public services. Similar past events have drawn hundreds of thousands of visitors to host regions.
Levi’s Stadium, located in Santa Clara, underwent upgrades after its last Super Bowl to improve fan access, technology, and security, according to stadium management.
Further operational details, including fan events and security planning, are expected to be released by the league and local authorities as the date approaches. The story is developing.
