It’s been an objectively huge year for football thanks to the reach of one Ms. Taylor Alison Swift, who’s getting even lifelong rom-com devotees like me to sort of care about the sport. As luck would have it, the Holy Grail of football holidays is coming up in just a few week: Super Bowl 2024. (Or, the first outing for the commercials that will be playing on screens large and small for the next several months—take a moment to revisit our accounting of the best Super Bowl commercials of all time.)
Below, find everything you need to know about Super Bowl 2024, including when it’s on, how to watch, and (most importantly for non-football fans) all the details on the halftime show.

Las Vegas’s Allegiant Stadium is slated to play host to this year’s Super Bowl, making this the first time that the Super Bowl has taken place in Nevada.
Who’s headlining this year’s Super Bowl halftime show?
Usher, of course! “It’s an honor of a lifetime to finally check a Super Bowl performance off my bucket list. I can’t wait to bring the world a show unlike anything else they’ve seen from me before,” the singer recently said in a statement. Reba McEntire and Post Malone are also slated to perform.

How can I watch Super Bowl 58?
The big game will be airing live on CBS and streaming live on Paramount+ (the latter of which offers a one-week trial period if you’re not committed for the long run), but in a decidedly fun first, Nickelodeon will also be hosting a “slime-filled, family-friendly” broadcast of the game.
Who’s playing in Super Bowl 58?
Unclear as of yet, but the Kansas City Chiefs, the Baltimore Ravens, the San Francisco 49ers and the Detroit Lions are all championship contenders. (Personally, I’m rooting for the guy on the Chiefs.)
