Where to Watch the 2026 Super Bowl in the Bay Area

The Bay Area is just days away from hosting Super Bowl LX between the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots.

But unless you’re attempting to snag those last-minute tickets at the box office on Super Bowl Sunday, you’re more likely to be wondering, “Where can I watch or stream the Super Bowl?”

Despite the lack of a 49ers presence at the Super Bowl, the Bay has been hyped for the big game at Levi’s Stadium, with plenty of events and collaborations with the National Football League.

Keep reading for how you can tune into Sunday’s game, where you can watch it live and when to see Bad Bunny’s halftime performance.

Where to watch the 2026 Super Bowl on streaming

The Super Bowl LX Seahawks vs. Patriots Super Bowl kickoff is at 3:30 p.m on Sunday, Feb. 8, and will be broadcast by NBC. (For those also interested in the Winter Olympics, NBC plans to resume its coverage after the football game.)

If you don’t have cable, you can stream the Super Bowl on the following online services — and be sure to check if you can get a free trial version, if you’re not subscribed already:

• Stream the Super Bowl on the official NFL app
• Stream the Super Bowl on Peacock
• Stream the Super Bowl on Fubo
• Stream the Super Bowl on Hulu (with Live TV)
• Stream the Super Bowl on YouTube TV

And don’t forget: before the Super Bowl, the Puppy Bowl will be broadcast on Animal Planet or Discovery+. After all, the best game in the world is between Team Fluff and Team Ruff.

(One of the players is a Siberian Husky and Chihuahua mix from New York and Puerto Rico named Benito, named in honor of Super Bowl halftime performer Bad Bunny, who apparently “brings that same confident swagger to the field.”)

When is Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl LX halftime show?

Kickoff is at 3:30 p.m. PST, and Bad Bunny is expected to take the stage after the game’s second quarter, which can vary in length depending on the game.

There will also be major music highlights before the game starts, too. Vallejo rapper LaRussell will be opening the NFL Tailgate Concert featuring Teddy Swims, starting at 12:50 p.m., “just outside” Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara.

And just before the kickoff, the East Bay’s own Green Day will be the Super Bowl opening act at 3 p.m.

During the game’s opening ceremony, Charlie Puth will be singing the national anthem, Brandi Carlile will sing “America the Beautiful” and Coco Jones will perform “Lift Every Voice and Sing.”

What are the anticipated Super Bowl commercials this year?

Another hallmark of the Super Bowl: commercials.

This year will include ads featuring Ben Stiller and Benson Boone (directed by Spike Jonze), Elijah Wood, Bowen Yang and Sabrina Carpenter. As of publication, most of the following Super Bowl commercials already out there are teasers, with the actual full-length presentations airing on Sunday during the game.

(Sunday Super Bowl is also a key time for trailers of anticipated releases this year. This reporter is guessing Christoper Nolan’s The Odyssey will make an appearance.)

A major highlight this year is a dramatic Squarespace video from Yorgos Lanthimos — auteur of such award-winning films like “Poor Things” and “Bugonia” — and his number one collaborator, Emma Stone.

The Founder, King and elected Mayor of Flavortown — and Sonoma County resident — will star in this Super Bowl ad for appliance company Bosch, with a norm-core spin on his usual signature highlights and kitschy shirts.

This one is hard to watch.

Your kids are going to go nuts over this commercial from Liquid IV (if they recognize EJAE’s voice from the wildly popular Netflix film K-Pop Demon Hunters).

And targeted directly toward our PBS hearts — Lady Gaga singing Mr. Roger’s “Won’t You Be My Neighbor” for mortgage company Rocket and Redfin.
