When it comes to blockbuster sporting events, not much comes close to the Super Bowl. The NFL’s showpiece fixture is less a match and more a full-blown cultural phenomenon.
And while the game takes place thousands of miles away, London will be very much awake for it. With a huge American expat community and a substantial homegrown fanbase, the Super Bowl has become a booming fixture in the capital’s nightlife calendar.
Hosting the Super Bowl is a big deal, and for 2026, it heads west to Santa Clara. Located in the heart of Silicon Valley, around 45 miles southeast of San Francisco, the California city won a fiercely competitive bidding process to host the game (a privilege that reportedly costs close to $100m once security and production are factored in). It’s not Santa Clara’s first rodeo either, having previously hosted the Super Bowl 50 back in 2016.
As ever, the action on the field will be joined by all the familiar Super Bowl trimmings: high-stakes drama and, most importantly, a globe-stopping half-time show. I mean, who could forget Beyoncé? And Rihanna? Prince? Pop-culture milestones one and all.
So sure, you could watch it from your sofa with a multipack of crisps. But for anyone after a proper Super Bowl experience – big screens, booming sound systems, flowing pints and American food – London has plenty of late-night parties worth staying up for. These are the best places in the city to catch it.
When is the Super Bowl?
Super Bowl LX takes place on Sunday February 8, kicking off at around 11.30pm GMT.
Who is performing at the Super Bowl?
Bad Bunny was announced as the headline performer for the Super Bowl Halftime Show back in September. Green Day are supporting, while Charlie Puth will be singing the national anthem.
Which teams are in the Super Bowl?
Super Bowl LX will take place between AFC champions and six-time Super Bowl winners the New England Patriots and NFC champions the Seattle Seahawks, who won Super Bowl XLVIII in 2013 and have reached the final for the fourth time in 2026.
How to watch the Super Bowl in the UK
The Super Bowl will once again be shown live on ITV for free in the UK, where you can stream the action using ITVX on mobile, tablet or desktop devices. Sky Sports subscribers can watch alternative coverage on Sky Sports Main Event or
