what peacock plan to watch super bowl

You need a paid Peacock subscription that includes live sports to watch the Super Bowl.

Quick Scoop: Which Peacock plan?

For Super Bowl LX (2026), Peacock is streaming the game live for subscribers, but not on the very cheapest tier.

Here’s how it breaks down:

  • Peacock is simulcasting the Super Bowl with NBC, so any plan that has live NBC sports access will work.
  • Current paid options mentioned for Super Bowl streaming are:
    • Peacock Premium (ad-supported, around 10–11 USD/month): includes live sports and the Super Bowl stream.
* **Peacock Premium Plus** (mostly ad-free, higher price): also includes live sports and the Super Bowl stream.
  • The cheapest entry tier without live sports (often referred to as a basic or “Select”-style tier in discussions) does not carry live sporting events, so it will not be enough for the Super Bowl.

So, in simple terms:

To watch the Super Bowl on Peacock, you need at least Peacock Premium (or Premium Plus). The low-cost basic tier without live sports won’t get you the game.

Extra context & deals

  • NBC is airing Super Bowl LX on TV, and the same broadcast is streaming live on Peacock at 6:30 p.m. ET on February 8, 2026.
  • There have been promos, like getting Peacock for free or at a discount via other services (for example, a Walmart+ promo giving a year of Peacock so you’d be set for the Super Bowl).

Simple checklist before kickoff

  1. Confirm your account is Premium or Premium Plus , not the basic/no-sports tier.
  1. Make sure your subscription is active on game day.
  2. Open Peacock, go to the NFL / Super Bowl or NBC live section, and start the live stream around kickoff time.
