Super Bowl 2026 time: How to watch, listen on radio, and stream online

Super Bowl Sunday is upon us and more than 100 million people in the United States are going to tune in for the biggest game of the NFL season. Last year averaged a record audience of 127.7 million between television and online streaming, and that doesn’t even include the number of people that are old school and listen to the game on their radio.

This year’s Super Bowl 60 matchup doesn’t match firepower of last year when the Philadelphia Eagles beat the Kansas City Chiefs. However, this year’s matchup between the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots offers a lot of new storylines. And considering it’s the first Super Bowl in four years to not include the Chiefs, maybe it results in some new viewers.

This year’s game kicks off at 6:30 p.m. ET.

NBC is the official television partner of the NFL for the 2026 Super Bowl. That means we get Mike Tirico and Cris Collinsworth in the booth, and Kaylee Hartung and Melissa Stark serving as field reporters. Former NFL referee Terry McAulay will serve as the official rules analyst for the game.

The major television networks rotate the Super Bowl and the last time NBC had it was in 2022 at Super Bowl 56. While Collinsworth was in the booth and McAulay was the rules analyst for that game, everybody else is new. Al Michaels was the play-by-player person for that game and Tirico is taking over for him in his first Super Bowl as the lead announcer. This is also Hartung’s first Super Bowl. This is actually Stark’s second Super Bowl, as she served as one of the two field reports when ABC had the call for Super Bowl 37 in 2003.

NBC will also be the official streaming partner of the NFL for this game. That means Peacock will air the game. Peacock is its own standalone option, but it also will be available through, DirecTV Stream, Sling TV, YouTube TV, and Hulu + Live TV. It will feature the same announcers as the NBC broadcast.

Most people will watch the Super Bowl on TV or via live stream, but some will listen to the game on the radio. Some folks are old school, while others just won’t have access to a TV for the game for one reason or another. Either way, it should be a fantastic listen if you do choose the radio because you get Kevin Harlan on the call.

Westwood One is the official radio broadcast partner of the NFL and they will provide the national broadcast. The official radio broadcast will air on linear radio and via the Westwood One Sports app, SiriusXM, NFL+, and on the NFL App.

Harlan is a long-time announcer for Westwood One and his “best of” compilation is an amazing highlight reel. That one includes NBA moments as well, so if you’re just looking for some NFL highlights, there’s the time he called a streaker at Super Bowl 55, a fan on the field for a 49ers-Rams game, him calling two games at once in 2017, and even calling a black cat running around the field on Monday Night Football. He’s a national treasure!

Harlan will handle play-by-play duties. He’ll be joined by analyst Kurt Warner and sideline reporter Laura Okmin. Gene Steratore will serve as the rules analyst with Scott Graham and Ryan Harris working in the studio.

If you’re a Seahawks or Patriots fan, you might prefer your local radio coverage. For the Seahawks, Seattle Sports 710 AM and KIRO NewsRadio 97.3 FM will air the game. Steve Raible, Dave Wyman, and Jen Mueller will handle the call for the Seahawks local broadcast. The Patriots’ official broadcast is airing on 98.5 The Sports Hub and SiriusXM channel 821. Bob Socci, Scott Zolak, and Marc Cappello will be on the call for the Patriots local broadcast.
