Super Bowl LX is scheduled to be played on Feb. 8, 2026, at Levi's Stadium in California. The stadium is located at 4900 Marie P. DeBartolo Way in Santa Clara.
This will be the third Super Bowl hosted in the San Francisco Bay area and it will be exactly 10 Super Bowls ago when Levi Stadium first hosted the NFL's championship game when the Denver Broncos defeated the Carolina Panthers in Super Bowl L (50).

When is Super Bowl 2026? What time is Super Bowl 60?
Super Bowl LX will take place on Feb. 8, 2026. An exact time has not been announced; however, the game usually starts at 6:30 p.m. EST.
What goes into selecting a host city for the Super Bowl?
According to Reuters, the selection process for host cities used to be based on the NFL inviting cities to submit an official bid to host; however, in 2018, the full-scale competition was suspended.
"The league now contacts the chosen city and asks it to develop a suitable proposal. The owners then vote to accept or reject it," Reuters explains.
When was the last time Florida hosted a Super Bowl?
Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady (12) hoists the Vince Lombardi Trophy after defeating the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LV at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa on Feb. 7, 2021.
The last Super Bowl hosted in Florida was in Tampa back in 2021. Former football quarterback Tom Brady and the Tampa Buccaneers won Super Bowl 55 with a 31-9 rout of the Kansas City Chiefs .

Due to the COVID-19 outbreak in 2020, officials limited the stadium's seating capacity to 25,000 fans — making it the least-attended post-merger championship game in history.
The title for most Super Bowl games hosted also goes to Florida — the state has hosted 17 games in total with 11 in Miami , five in Tampa, and one in Jacksonville .
