Super Bowl LVII is upon us. It’s the big game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles, and the winner takes it all (Madden NFL 23 thinks Philly will win). It should be a good game and it should be a great halftime show as Rihanna will take the stage. Whether you’re more into it for the game, the commercials, or anticipated movie trailers fast x, or the glittering halftime show, I’m here to tell you about all the ways you can tune in for free, as well as other paid recommendations.
When is the Super Bowl?
Kickoff is scheduled for Sunday, February 12 at 6:30pm EST/3:30pm PST. Fox will air pre-game coverage from 1pm should you wish to tune in earlier for comment.
When is the Super Bowl halftime show?
There is no set time for the start of the halftime show (featuring Rihanna), but it should be around 8pm or a little later depending on the flow of the game.
Where can I watch the Super Bowl?
Fox has exclusive broadcast rights this year. For those in the US using an antenna for local channels, all you need to do is navigate to your local Fox affiliate. If you access television through a provider like Comcast, DirecTV, Dish Network, Optimum, Spectrum, or Verizon Fios, your channel package will almost certainly come with Fox.
View outside the US? The NFL website has a comprehensive list of International Networks that will broadcast the Super Bowl.
How can I watch the Super Bowl for free?
I’m glad you asked. Some over-the-top (OTT) TV services, such as YouTube TV and FuboTV, offer free trials for new customers. These are sometimes extended to expired members who haven’t logged in in a while, but we didn’t find any in time for the Super Bowl.
If you don’t want to pay a penny up front, sign up for a free trial of any of the services below and remember to stop the service when you’re done. Who knows? You may enjoy it enough to keep it in your rotation of subscriptions.
