Are you ready for the Superbowl?

The Superbowl is coming to SF in less than two weeks! Super Bowl 50 will be held on February 7 at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara. The Denver Broncos (14-4) are playing against the Carolina Panthers (17-1). The city is pulling out all the stops to set the stage for a dramatic exchange of adrenaline, tight pants and leather balls.

Here are some fun facts:

  • An estimated 1 million people are expected to attend Super Bowl Week festivities.
  • 300 food trucks and more than 50 food carts have been licensed by the city of San Francisco.
  • The cheapest available ticket for Super Bowl 50 is expected to cost at least $3,500 just to get in the stadium.
  • 30 seconds for a CBS ad spot is averaging $5 million.
  • Up to 1,200 extra planes are flying around the Bay Area between February 4 and February 10.

The traffic forecast is very clear: don’t even think about driving downtown! The worst parts are by Embarcadero and Market Streets. See the map below:
