You cannot watch the 2026 Super Bowl live on Paramount Plus in the US, because this year’s game is airing on NBC and streaming on Peacock instead.

Quick Scoop

  • The 2026 Super Bowl (Super Bowl LX) is being broadcast on NBC (and Telemundo) in the United States, with the official livestream on Peacock, not Paramount Plus.
  • That means a Paramount Plus subscription alone will not give you access to watch this year’s Super Bowl. You’ll need NBC via cable/antenna or a streaming service that carries NBC, or a Peacock subscription.
  • Kickoff is scheduled for Sunday, February 8, 2026, at 6:30 p.m. ET from Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California.

So what are your options instead of Paramount Plus?

  1. Use Peacock (the “official” stream)
    • Peacock is streaming the full Super Bowl broadcast in the US, including pregame, the game itself, halftime show (headlined by Bad Bunny), and postgame content.
 * You’ll need a paid Peacock Premium plan; the free or legacy lower tiers do _not_ include the Super Bowl stream.
  1. Watch on NBC or Telemundo
    • If you have cable, satellite, or a live TV streaming service (like some bundles that carry NBC), you can watch the game on your local NBC station or Telemundo for Spanish coverage.
 * Many live TV streaming services also include NBC in eligible markets; check your ZIP code in their channel lookup before game day.
  1. Look for promos and free trials
    • Ahead of the game, some partners (for example, Walmart+ bundling a Peacock trial) have offered ways to watch the Super Bowl on Peacock without paying extra beyond the promo.

Why people get confused about Paramount Plus and the Super Bowl

  • In other recent years, when CBS held broadcast rights, you could stream the Super Bowl on Paramount Plus, which led a lot of fans to associate “Super Bowl stream” with Paramount Plus by default.
  • Forum discussions and tech blogs have also focused on Paramount Plus’s past Super Bowl and NFL streams (1080p, HDR, and occasional buffering issues for some viewers), which keeps the Paramount Plus–Super Bowl connection in circulation even in years when CBS does not have the game.

Forum-style snapshot of the current vibe

“The 2026 Super Bowl is on NBC and Peacock this year, so your Paramount+ sub won’t help for this one.”

“If you want a clean stream, just grab Peacock Premium for the month and cancel after.”

Fans who used Paramount Plus for a CBS Super Bowl in the past are now mostly planning to switch to Peacock or a service that carries NBC for 2026.

Bottom line / TL;DR:
For 2026, the answer to “can you watch Super Bowl on Paramount Plus?” is no —the game is on NBC and streaming via Peacock (and other NBC-carrying services), not on Paramount Plus.
