How to watch Super Bowl LVIII live in 2024
This post was written in partnership with DISH.
Super Bowl LVIII is finally set, and it’s an epic rematch between the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers. Since that original contest in 2020, though, the Chiefs have only further cemented their status as the NFL’s next dynasty. (The next “great American dynasty,” as Swifties might put it). They now have the chance to take back-to-back titles for the first time since the New England Patriots did nearly 20 years ago.
Of course, not if Brock Purdy has anything to say about it. San Francisco’s young quarterback is out to show he can take on Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, and everything the Chiefs have to throw at him. Is he up to the task? You’ll have to watch to find out. Read on for all the details on how to watch Super Bowl LVIII.
- Where: Allegiant Stadium, Las Vegas
- When: Sunday, February 11, 2024
- Channels: CBS, Nickelodeon, Paramount Plus

Watch on DISH (Our preferred streaming alternative)
This season, DISH is making it easy to watch pro live network games for those who prefer a more traditional satellite TV service. You can watch live coverage of many pro football games on your local channels, where you’ll find coverage for your local team. For a limited time, when new customers purchase America’s top 120 Plus, 200, or 250 packages, you’ll also get access to the Multi-Sport package with NFL Network, NFL RedZone, and more channels for sports coverage.
Watch on DIRECTV STREAM
DIRECTV STREAM is always a favorite for live sports streaming. The Super Bowl will air on CBS and Nickelodeon, both of which are included in the basic Entertainment plan. You can try it for free for five days, after which it costs $79.99 a month. This plan also features a few other key sports networks like ESPN, ESPN2, and Fox Sports 1 (FS1). Plus, you’ll get unlimited cloud DVR storage and simultaneous streams at home.
If you want the full sports experience on DIRECTV STREAM, you’ll probably want to upgrade to the Choice plan, which costs $108.99 a month and offers much more live sports action. You can keep up with local teams on regional sports networks (RSNs) and stay on top of all the major national and international events across over 15 major networks like NFL Network, ESPNU, ACCN, Big Ten Network, MLB Network, and NBA TV. For even more sports or premium channels, consider the two top-tier plans, which run $119.99 to $164.99 per month.
Watch on Fubo
Fans who really want to take their sports coverage to the limit may want to check out Fubo, a streaming platform that’s built for die-hard fans. Fubo Pro, the basic plan, features over 30 sports networks, including RSNs. It costs $79.99 a month plus a regional sports fee of up to $14.99 a month. With the Pro plan, you can watch Super Bowl LVIII on CBS and Nickelodeon, then tune into more live sports on networks like ESPN, ESPN2, FS1, NFL Network, Big Ten Network, SEC Network, and beIN Sports. If you want to try it out for the Super Bowl, Fubo offers a free trial of up to seven days.
There’s plenty more to add to your plan, too. Fubo offers two upgrade plans, or you can choose one of the add-ons to bolster your subscription with more live sports. The Sports Plus with NFL RedZone add-on, for instance, features an extra 33 sports channels. Fubo also comes with 1,000 hours of cloud DVR storage and up to 10 simultaneous streams at home. However, some fans may not be able to overlook Fubo’s missing channels, especially when it comes to live sports. TBS, TNT, and TruTV are noticeably absent, and there are a lot of MLB, NBA, and NCAA basketball games you’ll miss out on.
Watch on Hulu + Live TV
Super Bowl Sunday is always a blast, but what about after the big game? You may want more than just a live TV plan, and that’s exactly what Hulu + Live TV offers. A subscription comes with more than 90 channels — including around a dozen sports networks — plus access to the entire Disney Bundle. That includes the Disney Plus library or movies and shows, along with more live sports on ESPN Plus. For only $76.99 a month, that’s a pretty impressive value.
You can watch both the CBS and Nickelodeon broadcasts of the Super Bowl, too. Hulu + Live TV features both channels and allows two simultaneous streams, so you can keep the whole family entertained. On top of all of the great on-demand content you’ll have access to, you can record unlimited content to your cloud DVR library. The only downsides here? There’s no free trial, and Hulu + Live TV only carries RSNs in a few markets.
Watch on YouTube TV
YouTube TV is another great option for streaming Super Bowl LVIII. Its base plan includes CBS and Nickelodeon, plus more than 110 other channels, for $72.99 a month. There’s plenty of live sports here, with networks like FS1, ESPN, ESPN2, NFL Network, Big Ten Network, TBS, and TNT — but that’s not all. YouTube TV’s lineup includes more popular entertainment, news, and sports channels than any competitors at a similar price point.
There are also quite a few add-on options to suit every kind of viewer. Whether you want more sports, live music, films, or premium channels, YouTube TV has something for you. It also features unlimited cloud DVR storage and three simultaneous streams, and you can try it for free for up to two weeks. Unfortunately, you can’t get any RSNs to keep up with your local teams on YouTube TV.
Watch on Paramount Plus
- Pricing begins at $5.99/mo
- Premium subscription comes with local CBS station
- Free trial currently available
Maybe you cut the cord from cable and have no interest in going back to a TV subscription. You can still watch the big game with an on-demand service. Paramount Plus will stream the CBS broadcast for all subscribers, so you can tune in whether you have the basic plan or the premium plan. Plans start at $5.99 a month, and there is a seven-day free trial.
The Super Bowl isn’t the only live-action you’ll find on Paramount Plus, either.
This platform has a whole slew of top-tier soccer events from major competitions like the UEFA Champions League, Italian Serie A, Women’s Super League, and the National Women’s Soccer League. Tune into live games and pre- and post-game coverage for some of the most exciting matchups in the world.
