What time does the 2025 Super Bowl kick off?

The 2025 Super Bowl is nearly here. Once again, Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs are part of the big game, and for the second time, they’ll match up with Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles, clashing for the Lombardi Trophy in New Orleans, Louisiana, on Sunday, Feb. 9.

You might be wondering, whether you’re watching the game at home or going to a big party, when the heck does this thing start anyway?

This year’s Super Bowl will begin at 6:30 p.m. ET

That’s 5:30 p.m. CT, 4:30 p.m. MT, and 3:30 p.m. PT for folks spread across the county.

And again, that’s on Sunday, Feb. 9, on FOX.

If you need a reason to be in front of your day before that, ESPN typically serves up an appetizer of some great women’s college basketball games. That’s true this year too, with South Carolina (coached by noted Eagles fan Dawn Staley) and Texas tip-off at 2 p.m. ET, followed by Tennessee versus LSU at 4 p.m. ET.
