Super Bowls are held once a year, as the championship game that closes each NFL season.

Basic timing

  • The Super Bowl is an annual event.
  • It’s played on a Sunday, popularly known as “Super Bowl Sunday.”
  • In recent years, it has typically fallen in early to mid-February, after the NFL playoffs finish.

How the schedule works

  • The NFL regular season runs from early September into early January, followed by several weeks of playoffs.
  • The Super Bowl is the single final game of that season, so there is only one Super Bowl per NFL season and per year.

Has it ever skipped a year?

  • Since the first Super Bowl was played in 1967, it has been held every season without cancellation, making it one of the most consistent annual sporting events.
