Get ready, football fans! The biggest Sunday of the year is almost here, and Super Bowl LIX is heading to the heart of the Big Easy-New Orleans. On February 9, 2025, the legendary Caesars Superdome will host the NFL’s grand finale, bringing the excitement of the championship game to one of America’s most vibrant cities.
Whether you’re here for the game, the halftime show, or just any other excuse, this year’s Super Bowl will be unforgettable. Let’s dive into all the details!
The Iconic Venue: Caesars Superdome In New Orleans
The Caesars Superdome, home of the New Orleans Saints, is no stranger to hosting football’s grand finale. This marks the eighth time the Super Bowl will occur in this legendary stadium, more than any other venue. New Orleans has hosted 11 Super Bowls, solidifying its status as one of the NFL’s favorite cities for its championship game.
The Superdome last hosted the Super Bowl in 2013 for SB XLVII, where the Baltimore Ravens edged out the San Francisco 49ers in a thrilling 34-31 victory. Fans will remember this game for its nail-biting finish and the infamous power outage that briefly stopped play.
The choice of New Orleans is no surprise- the city’s vibrant culture, world-class food, and Mardi Gras festivities make it a dream destination for football fans and travelers alike.
Mark Your Calendar: Date and Time
SB LIX will kick off at 6:30 PM ET on Sunday, February 9, 2025. The game will air live on FOX; fans can stream it on the FOX Sports app or FuboTV.

Kendrick Lamar Takes Center Stage for Halftime
The halftime show promises to be as exciting as the game, with 17-time Grammy Award winner Kendrick Lamar headlining. Lamar, known for his groundbreaking 2017 album DAMN., which earned him a Pulitzer Prize, is set to deliver an unforgettable performance.
“Rap music is still the most impactful genre to date. And I’ll be there to remind the world why,” Lamar said in a statement to NFL.com. Fans can expect a high-energy, dynamic show that celebrates his artistry and the cultural significance of hip-hop.
How New Orleans Landed Super Bowl LIX
Initially, New Orleans was slated to host SB LVIII in 2024. However, the NFL’s decision to extend the regular season to 17 games pushed the Super Bowl schedule by one week, creating a conflict with Mardi Gras. As a result, the league rescheduled New Orleans for 2025, ensuring the city could seamlessly host both events.
