Ask any devoted NFL fan what makes Super Bowl night sacred, and they will have stories of improbable comebacks, backyard parties, and legends born in the fourth quarter. This year, anticipation has a new edge: dominant regular seasons by the Seattle Seahawks (13-3) and Denver Broncos (13-3) have electrified fans, while perennial contenders like the New England Patriots and Jacksonville Jaguars remind us that playoff drama is always just around the corner.

Add to that a halftime stage set for Bad Bunny, and the result is more than a football game. With viewing habits evolving, fans are actively searching for the smartest way to watch the biggest night in American sports unfold live.

With Netflix already making waves in live sports, including NFL Christmas Day games, the big question remains: Will the Super Bowl 2026 stream on Netflix?

Will Super Bowl 2026 stream on Netflix? Where to watch it?

Netflix’s relationship with the NFL, while notable, remains deliberately limited. At present, there is no confirmed agreement for Netflix to stream Super Bowl LX. The NFL has existing broadcast rights in place that assign the championship game to traditional networks and affiliated streaming platforms. Specifically, NBC and its Peacock/NFL+ streaming outlets  are under current media contracts that run through the 2030s. 

The streamer made headlines by securing rights to broadcast select Christmas Day NFL games through at least 2026, marking its first meaningful step into live professional football. However, that expansion comes with clear boundaries. Netflix co-CEO Greg Peters has publicly stated during an appearance at the  Financial Times conference that the company is unlikely to pursue broader NFL broadcast packages.

Before kickoff decisions are debated, fans face the annual Super Bowl dilemma - choosing the right way to catch every moment of the biggest night in football.

How, and when to watch the Superbowl 2026?

As an ardent football fan, thinking about Super Bowl LX instantly conjures memories of iconic nights like the Eagles’ stunning upset over the Chiefs and record-breaking viewership that glued 127.7 million Americans to their screens for LIX. For 2026, that same energy is building again. And international viewers can access the game through services aligned with regional broadcast partners, such as Sky Sports and BBC in the U.K., and NFL-oriented streaming options, depending on the territory, as well as on streamers such as NBC and Peacock. 

Super Bowl halftime has become as legendary as the games themselves. From Michael Jackson’s landmark performance in 1993 that boosted viewership between halves to Beyoncé’s electrifying 2013 set that reunited Destiny’s Child on the biggest stage in sports, moments that audiences still recall decades later.
