Super Bowl 2024: San Francisco 49ers v Kansas City Chiefs – Start time, half-time show, how to watch live, will Taylor Swift be there?

The biggest game of the American football season is about to begin.

The 58th Super Bowl, starring the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers, will begin on Sunday, February 11, and while it is always a memorable occasion, this year’s NFL championship game appears to be greater than ever.The Chiefs, buoyed by the glitz and glamour of the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, will face the 49ers in an attempt to reclaim the Vince Lombardi Trophy, which they won in Arizona last February.

Kansas will make its fourth Super Bowl trip in five years, and there is increasing pressure on the team to win again thanks to a new army of fans who began following their title campaign after superstar musician Taylor Swift began attending games to support boyfriend Travis Kelce.

The 49ers, who have won five Super Bowls in their history, will face them, with their most recent title coming in 1994. Their previous appearance in the final was in 2020, when they were defeated 31-20 by the Chiefs after star quarterback Patrick Mahomes led a blistering fourth-quarter comeback.

Mahomes is expected to be a crucial player for the Chiefs as they seek their third championship in five years, while the 49ers will rely on their 12-5 record and the effective Brock Purdy to lead them to victory.
