20 Tailgates, Watch Parties, and Buffets for Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas (2024)

Las Vegas is hosting its first Super Bowl in 2024, and unless you have deep pockets, loyal fan connections, or you’re Taylor Swift, you may not be in Allegiant Stadium at kickoff when the Kansas City Chiefs face off with the San Francisco 49ers to decide who will raise the Lombardi Trophy and become this year’s NFL champ. So where will you be watching the game — airing on February 11, 2024, at 3:30 p.m. PST — this year?

Super Bowl LVIII week in Las Vegas will offer parties galore. The NFL Experience and Taste of the NFL are favorites among football fans. There are also a number of concerts and celebrity-hosted events leading up to the big game, including Shaq’s Fun House at XS, Gronk Beach at Encore Beach Club, and former Seattle Seahawks star Marshawn Lynch’s event at Eight Lounge. So here are a few options to consider if you can’t secure a golden ticket to the game and don’t want to watch from your own couch. And while there will be hundreds of watch parties all over town and countless sports bars to visit, here are 13 that have some of the most compelling specials on offer.

That’s because the sports bar has a set four-course menu (packages range from $200 to $349) where it will serve certain courses with each quarter of the game. The first quarter brings unlimited fried mozzerella, fries, chips with guacamole and queso, and teriyaki broccoli. A variety of wings arrive in the second, while fans can choose a burger or chicken sandwich after Usher’s halftime performance and end the game with a loaded milkshake.

3535 S. Las Vegas Blvd Las Vegas, NV 89109

The family-friendly event, located behind behind the High Roller Observation Wheel, is open to all ages and admission is free, although a guaranteed ticket ($49.99) allows you to skip the line and a Taste of Flavortown entry ($99.99) does the same but with 10 food tasting vouchers included.
