The Best Places to Watch Super Bowl LX in Melbourne
Trade work for the Super Bowl, as America's most-watched broadcast of the year takes over these venues across Melbourne.
Just a few years ago, US sports didn't resonate much with Australians. After all, we're already footy, rugby and cricket tragics. Yet the biggest day on America's calendar — sporting or otherwise — is now pulling in record viewers on our shores, with 2.6 million of us tuning into last year's broadcast.
Whether you're a diehard pigskin fan, need something to chat about around the watercooler, or just care about the half-time show — reggaetón superstar Bad Bunny is headlining — there's no shortage of venues getting behind Super Bowl LX in 2026.
That means tailgate parties, all-American food and drink, and merch giveaways before, during and after the NFL's championship game. Keen to watch? Live and direct from Santa Clara, California, the New England Patriots take on the Seattle Seahawks, with a massive global audience watching all the tackles and touchdowns.
Kick-off is set for 10.30am on Monday, February 9, so tell the boss you're feeling crook, and catch all the action on the jumbotron at your nearest local listed below.
