Where to Watch the Super Bowl in Raleigh 2026 (Big Game Sunday)

Super Bowl Sunday is almost here, and Raleigh is ready to bring the energy. Whether you want a full-on watch party, skyline views with beer specials, a legendary sports bar atmosphere, or gameday eats to take home, there are plenty of ways to enjoy the Big Game around the Triangle.

If you haven’t heard, the Super Bowl this year in 2026 is between the New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks. Since the Patriots have local North Carolina boy and a former UNC Tar Heel as their quarterback, Drake Maye, Craig is riding with the Patriots. And one of our best friends in Raleigh, Curt, is a big Pats fan. I’m undecided, as I want to support both Drake Maye and the Seahawks! Let’s say I’ll be happy either way!

Super Bowl LX will take place on February 8, 2026, at 6:30 p.m. ET at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, home of the San Francisco 49ers. Below is where to watch the Super Bowl in Raleigh and nearby — plus a few great options for game-day food if you’re hosting at home.
