The Super Bowl isn't just a football game—it's a nationwide celebration! While the end of football season is bittersweet, at least we have this day to go out in style. Whether you're planning a Super Bowl party, looking forward to the halftime show, or participating strictly for the Super Bowl commercials and game day food, there's something for everyone. (Did we mention the part about Super Bowl snacks?)
This year, the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs will face off in a highly anticipated rematch, just two years after they shared the field during Super Bowl LVII. Fans everywhere are making their plans for the big day, and they also have some questions: Where is it happening? How much do Super Bowl winners get paid? And, most importantly, who's bringing the buffalo chicken dip? There's so much to think about!
For now, here's everything you need to know about Super Bowl LIX, including when it’s happening, how to watch, who's performing at this year's halftime show, and more.
When is Super Bowl LIX?
Super Bowl LIX will take place on Sunday, February 9, 2025, at 6:30 p.m. ET. (For reference, that's 5:30 p.m. CT, 4:30 p.m. MT, and 3:30 p.m. PT.)
Where is Super Bowl LIX taking place in 2025?
This year, the game will be held at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana. Hosting the Super Bowl here feels like a celebration in itself, because the Superdome has been the site of many historic games over the years. If you're lucky enough to attend in person, don't forget to grab some classic New Orleans eats like gumbo and beignets while you're in town. For everyone else at home, it's a great excuse to add a little Cajun flavor to your Super Bowl menu.
Who is performing in the Super Bowl halftime show in 2025?
This year's halftime show will feature hip-hop star Kendrick Lamar, who will be making his second Super Bowl appearance in just a few years.
Lamar was announced as the headliner back in September and previously performed during the 2022 show alongside Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, and 50 Cent. This time, it sounds like he's stepping into the spotlight solo. Of course, there's always room for surprises!
While Kendrick might not be the '80s throwback performer some of us hoped for (*cough* Madonna *cough*) Super Bowl halftime shows are always fun to watch. Over the years, we've seen everything from Beyoncé's powerhouse vocals to Shania Twain making us all feel like a woman. It's always exciting to see what the headliner brings to the field—and have a chance to sneak in a few extra nachos!
How can I watch and stream Super Bowl LIX?
Super Bowl LIX will air live on FOX. If you have cable, you're all set to tune in from the comfort of your couch. For those who've cut the cord, there's good news: FOX is offering a free livestream of the game on Tubi!
This will be Tubi's first major live event, since the platform is best known for its ad-supported on-demand content. But if you're not looking to spend a dime to watch the big game, Tubi is a great free option. Just make sure to download the app or set it up on your streaming device ahead of time so you're ready to go when kickoff starts.
Which teams will be in the Super Bowl 2025?
The Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles are headed to Super Bowl LIX! It's another exciting face-off between two of the league's top teams. The big question now: Will the Chiefs pull off a three-peat and cement their dynasty status, or will the Eagles get redemption and bring the Lombardi Trophy back to Philly?
One thing's for sure—football fans are in for an incredible night. Whether you're cheering for the Chiefs, rooting for the Eagles, or too busy thinking of Super Bowl Instagram captions to pay attention, Super Bowl LIX is going to be a good one. Let the countdown begin!
