What Super Bowl is
The championship game of the National Football League and the most-watched television broadcast in the United States each year.
Since 2022 it has fallen on the second Sunday in February β the NFL added a seventeenth regular-season game that year, which pushed the whole calendar back a week. The halftime show and the advertising slots draw almost as much attention as the game itself.
When it falls, and why the date moves
The countdown at the top of this page is live, and the date beneath it is the next occurrence. The date is set by a weekday rule rather than a fixed number, so it lands on a different date each year within a known window.
It is grouped here under Sport, alongside the other observances that share its calendar.
What is coming up next
Once this date passes, the countdown moves straight on to the next occurrence β you do not need a different page for next year. See the full list of upcoming events, or use the countdown timer for a date of your own.
