NOTE: For the 2024 Super Bowl, please see this article.
Super Bowl LV starts at 6:30 PM Eastern Time on Sunday, Feb. 7, 2021. The event takes place at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa Bay, where the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will host the Kansas City Chiefs on their home field. There are many ways to watch this year’s big game (we talk about the best way to watch Super Bowl LV in a separate article), which unfortunately is not going to be offered in 4k. However, CBS has brought plenty of innovation to the production with 120 cameras including the “Venice cam” that takes you up and close with players on the field.
