Patriots vs. Seahawks channel, where to stream, start time, and more
The countdown is on and Super Bowl LX, between the New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks, will take place in less than a week. This year’s game will take place at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, and the Bay Area will also host many other football events this week, including Thursday’s NFL Honors, where we’ll learn who this season’s MVP is. (This event, which will take place in San Francisco, will air live on NBC and the NFL Network on Thursday at 9 p.m. ET.) While we’re curious to see who takes home NFL Honors’ top awards, we’re more excited about the championship game itself, which airs on Sunday, Feb. 8 with a 6:30 p.m. ET kickoff, and pregame coverage will air beginning at 12 p.m. ET.
Like all other Sunday Night Football games this season, the championship game will be broadcast on NBC and streamed live on Peacock. Here’s everything you need to know to watch Super Bowl LX on February 8, including the game’s channel, where to stream and who will be performing at halftime.

How to watch the Super Bowl 2026 without cable
You can stream NBC and Telemundo on platforms like DirecTV and Hulu + Live TV, both of which are among Engadget’s picks for the best streaming services for live TV. (Note that Fubo and NBC are currently in the middle of a contract dispute and NBC channels are not available on the platform.) The game will also stream on Peacock and NFL+, but with an NFL+ subscription, you’re limited to watching the game on mobile devices.
For $11/month, an ad-supported Peacock subscription lets you stream live sports and events broadcast on NBC, including the 2026 Super Bowl, Winter Olympics coverage, and more. Plus, you’ll have access to thousands of hours of shows and movies, including beloved sitcoms such as Parks and Recreation And The office, every Bravo show and much more.
For $17 per month, you can upgrade to an ad-free subscription that includes live access to your local NBC affiliate (not just during designated sports and events) and the ability to download select titles for offline viewing.
In addition to hosting NBC’s Super Bowl broadcast, DirecTV’s DirecTV tier gives you access to numerous channels where you can watch college and professional sports throughout the year, including ESPN, TNT, ACC Network, Big Ten Network, CBS Sports Network and, depending on where you live, local affiliates of ABC, CBS, Fox and NBC.
No matter which plan you choose, you’ll get unlimited Cloud DVR storage and access to ESPN Unlimited.
DirecTV’s DirecTV tier plan costs $89.99/month. But you can currently try all of this for free for 5 days. If you want to try a live TV streaming service for soccer, but aren’t ready to commit, we recommend starting with DirecTV.
Who will perform at the 2026 Super Bowl halftime show?
Bad Bunny, who holds the title of most streamed artist in the world, will headline the 2026 Super Bowl halftime show. You can expect this show to start after the second quarter, probably between 8 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. ET. Singer Charlie Puth will also be on hand to perform the national anthem, Brandi Carlile is set to sing “America The Beautiful” and Coco Jones will perform “Lift Every Voice and Sing.”
