The Big Game weekend is a big deal in Las Vegas.
The best two teams in the NFL will square off on February 8, 2026 in Santa Clara with fans, celebrities, and dignitaries packed to the rafters.
If you can’t afford a ticket to be inside Levi’s Stadium, don’t worry. Sports bars throughout Las Vegas will have viewing parties with a betting window often just steps away.
Viewing Parties to Watch the Big Game
Chickie’s & Pete’s at Sahara
The Sahara is home to Chickie’s & Pete’s, a sports bar and restaurant with Philadelphia roots. The venue hosts a Big Game party, beginning at 2 p.m., with food and beverage credits built into the ticket price (beginning at just above $288.84). Feast on cheesesteaks, buffalo chicken nachos, wings, burgers, pizzas, and, of course, the restaurant’s famous Crabfries.
Tilted Kilt at The LINQ Promenade
For those in the heart of the Strip, consider watching the game at the Tilted Kilt on the LINQ Promenade. It sits between The LINQ Hotel and the Flamingo and is an easy walk from Caesars Palace, the Cromwell and Bellagio. Tilted Kilt (featured in our LINQ bar crawl) is a Celtic-themed sports bar with dozens of TVs to ensure there isn’t a bad seat in the house to watch the game. Food and drinks are served by girls in skimpy outfits, guaranteeing a great time regardless of whichever team wins. Make an easy bet at The Book inside The LINQ Hotel.
Tap Sports Bar (MGM Grand)
TAP Sports Bar inside the MGM Grand is a paradise for true fans. Authentic sports memorabilia covers the walls and 60 high-definition televisions are in place to make sure guests don’t miss a moment of the action. There is seating for 200 people, a great atmosphere and an amazing selection of local and seasonal craft beers, not to mention signature bar bites and dishes like the Beer Can Chicken. TAP is very close to the MGM Grand’s sportsbook, making it convenient to place a last-minute bet.
