WASHINGTON — The Super Bowl is just days away and the festivities are ramping up in New Orleans.
The Kansas City Chiefs will face the Philadelphia Eagles in a “rematch” of the 2023 Super Bowl.
Kansas City is trying to become the first team in NFL history to have back-to-back-to-back Super Bowl wins, while Philadelphia is trying to win their second NFL championship.
When is the Super Bowl? What time does the Super Bowl kick off?
The game will kick off on Sunday Feb. 9, at 6:30 p.m. Eastern time. Super Bowl 59 will be played at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana, marking the 11th time the big game is hosted by the city.
It is also the eighth time that the Superdome has hosted the Super Bowl, the most of any NFL stadium.
What channel is the Super Bowl on?
Super Bowl LIX, which stands for 59, will be shown on FOX and livestreamed on FOX Sports App.
How to stream the Super Bowl
You can stream the 2025 Super Bowl for free on Tubi, an ad-supported streaming service that Fox also owns. All that’s required is to register for a free account. Then, download the Tubi app or visit the website on Sunday, Feb. 9 to watch Fox’s Super Bowl LIX stream live in 4K. The app works on most smart TVs, mobile devices and streaming sticks. The Tubi stream will include the same commercials as the typical TV broadcast, so you won’t miss out on any Super Bowl ads.
Who are the Super Bowl announcers?
Kevin Burkhardt will be the play-by-play announcer with former New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady as the analyst. This is Brady’s first Super Bowl as an announcer. He won seven titles as a player. Erin Andrews and Tom Rinaldi are also part of the broadcast team.
Who is performing at the Super Bowl?
Kendrick Lamar will headline the Super Bowl halftime performance in the Caesars Superdome.
Alongside the “Not Like Us” rapper will be multi-Grammy winner SZA.
SZA is Lamar’s former Top Dawg Entertainment labelmate. She appeared his recent album “GNX” and was featured on a couple songs including “Gloria” and “Luther,” which also features sampled vocals from Luther Vandross and Cheryl Lynn through “If This World Were Mine.”
The duo’s previous hits include the Oscar-nominated “All the Stars” and “Doves in the Wind.”
Lamar and SZA will also co-headline a 19-city North American tour this spring and summer. The Grand National Tour kicks off April 19 in Minneapolis and concludes June 18 in Washington, D.C.
Last year, Usher shined with a star-studded show and guests including H.E.R., Jermaine Dupri, Lil Jon, Ludacris and Alicia Keys.

The Super Bowl pregame will have some Louisiana flavor: Jon Batiste will hit the stage to sing the national anthem, while Trombone Shorty and Lauren Daigle are slated to perform “America the Beautiful.”
Ledisi will perform “Lift Every Voice and Sing” as part of the pregame performances.
The national anthem and “America the Beautiful” will be performed by actor Stephanie Nogueras in American sign language. Otis Jones IV will sign “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” and the halftime show will be signed by Matt Maxey.
The pregame performers are all Louisiana natives.
