Where is the Super Bowl 2023? Location, date, and more for Super Bowl LVIII

By Annie CoryFeb 10, 2023, 9:42 AM EST

Now that the 2023 NFL playoffs have come to a close, the Super Bowl is all that remains for the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles as they battle it out for a Lombardi Trophy.

Last year’s big game saw the Los Angeles Rams claim victory in SoFi Stadium, becoming just the second team in NFL history to hoist a Lombardi at home. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers were the first to do so just one year prior at Raymond James Stadium.

While the broadcast of the Super Bowl consistently ranks among the world’s highest-watched television programs each year, the game also brings immense excitement to whichever city is fortunate enough to host. See below for a full breakdown of Super Bowl LVII’s location.

Where is the Super Bowl 2023?

The greatest show in sports is coming to the desert this February, as Super Bowl LVII will be played at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.

State Farm Stadium, the home of the Arizona Cardinals, was built in 2006. Since its construction, the venue has hosted two Super Bowls — Super Bowl XLII in 2008 and Super Bowl XLIX in 2015. The Cardinals, however, are not in the fight for the Lombardi this time around, marking the first season since 2019 that the home team of the Super Bowl venue is not in the playoffs.

Though every Super Bowl is historic, the last time the big game took place in the desert was especially legendary. The New England Patriots defeated the Seattle Seahawks by a score of 28-24, as Malcolm Butler intercepted Russell Wilson’s pass at the goal line to grant New England its fourth Lombardi in franchise history. This championship ended a 10-year Super Bowl drought for the Patriots, who had missed the playoffs just one time since their 2004 victory.

When is the Super Bowl 2023?

Date: Sunday, February 12
Time: 6:30 p.m. ET
TV Network: Fox

Coaches and players of the contending teams made their first appearance in the southwest at Super Bowl Opening Night, which took at the Footprint Center in downtown Phoenix on Feb. 6.

Who is performing at the halftime show at Super Bowl 2023?

International superstar and entrepreneur Rihanna is set to headline the halftime show at Super Bowl LVIII. Her performance will follow an ensemble showing from a lineup of L.A. legends at Super Bowl LVII last February that included Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Mary J. Blige and Kendrick Lamar.

NFL quarterback rankings 2023: Chris Simms’ top 40 QB countdown ahead of upcoming NFL season

By Annie CoryMay 31, 2023, 12:00 PM EDT

While the NFL is a league that is ever-changing, some things are set to stay the same in 2023 — like the revealing of Chris Simms’ top 40 QB countdown.

Last year’s list saw Josh Allen take his place atop the quarterback throne, with Kansas City’s Patrick Mahomes and Los Angeles’ Justin Herbert not far behind at No. 2 and No. 3, respectively. It was, however, Mahomes who would ultimately reign over all NFL quarterbacks at the end of the season, as the 27-year-old collected both the NFL MVP honors and his second Lombardi Trophy.

This NFL offseason, however, has brought some intriguing adjustments that are likely to shake up Simms’ rankings.

While some signal-callers such as Jalen Hurts and Lamar Jackson found their prolonged home with massive contract signings, others will be venturing to a new franchise in search of a fresh start. Aaron Rodgers‘ trade to the New York Jets is unquestionably the most staggering shift, but other quarterbacks on the move such as Derek Carr and Jimmy Garoppolo cannot be forgotten.

And with three of the first four picks in the 2023 NFL Draft being spent on a quarterback, emerging talent will likely turn the tides for some franchises this upcoming season.
