Super Bowl LX will bring a series of events to the San Francisco Bay Area from February 2 to February 8, 2026. The weeklong celebration extends beyond the game itself at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, including activities across San Francisco, San Jose, and other cities in the region.

The festivities begin on February 2 with Super Bowl Opening Night Fueled by Gatorade at the San Jose Convention Center. This event is open to families and features appearances by players and coaches from both teams. Fans can register for this limited-space event through the NFL OnePass app.

Following Opening Night, visitors can attend the Big Game Opening Night Concert at San Jose McEnery Convention Center and view The Big Game Opening Drone Show in San Jose’s SoFA District.

From February 3 to 7, Yerba Buena Gardens in San Francisco will host the Fan Zone organized by the Bay Area Host Committee. This all-ages festival includes live performances and interactive NFL exhibits that showcase local food and culture. The Moscone Center will also feature the Super Bowl Experience presented by Jersey Mike’s during these dates, offering fans a chance to participate in games, meet NFL players, visit an official shop, see memorabilia exhibits, and more.

Music events are scheduled throughout Super Bowl weekend. On February 6, Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture will hold “Bud Light Presents Post Malone & Buddies,” with free tickets available for fans aged 21 and over. The BAHC Live! Concert Series begins on February 6 at Bill Graham Civic Auditorium with Martin Garrix performing alongside Lost Frequencies; Chris Stapleton and Sierra Ferrell are set for February 7. At Palace of Fine Arts, Sting headlines on February 6 as part of Studio 60’s concert series while The Killers perform on Super Bowl Eve.

Food enthusiasts can attend Taste of the NFL on February 7 at The Hibernia in San Francisco. This event provides attendees with dishes from well-known chefs paired with wine and spirits while meeting former football players.

Art lovers may visit NFL Culture Club at The Pearl from February 4–7 for live performances and installations focused on sports, art, fashion, and community culture.

The Pro Bowl Games take place on February 3 at Moscone Center. For the first time during Super Bowl Week, this flag football competition features top AFC and NFC players competing in a non-tackle format.

Levi’s Stadium hosts Super Bowl LX on Sunday, February 8. Those attending are encouraged to arrive early for pre-game festivities such as Charlie Puth singing the national anthem. Bad Bunny is set to headline the halftime show during Apple Music’s broadcast. Afterward, celebrations continue at Hayes Mansion’s Black & Reds Speakeasy in San Jose.

Fans without game tickets can join watch parties nearby—including Santana Row’s outdoor tailgate featuring dining options and live entertainment just minutes away from Levi’s Stadium.

Dining options near Levi’s Stadium include Clara’s Junction—an indoor-outdoor restaurant close to stadium gates—and casual eateries like HiroNori Craft Ramen or Pizza My Heart within walking distance. Downtown Santa Clara offers additional venues such as Puesto for tacos or Barebottle Brewing Company for craft beer.

Transportation guidance suggests using Caltrain or BART combined with VTA light rail services for those traveling between San Francisco or Milpitas stations to reach Levi’s Stadium efficiently via public transit systems serving much of Northern California.

Visitors are encouraged to explore regional attractions after game day—such as Winchester Mystery House or Santana Row shopping center in San Jose; redwood forests like Big Basin Redwoods State Park; beaches along Santa Cruz Boardwalk; historic sites including Fisherman’s Wharf or Alcatraz Island accessible by ferry; coastal walks near Lands End; or landmarks like Golden Gate Bridge and Presidio in San Francisco.
