It’s almost time for the event of the season – and while we don’t exactly follow the NFL here in the UK, we certainly enjoy the spirit of it. The highly anticipated game will see two of the best NFL teams across the pond – New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks – go head to head at Levi’s Stadium, Santa Clara, California. Plus, there will be a halftime show that promises to be one to remember, as we can expect an epic performance from Bad Bunny. Here’s our guide to where to watch the Super Bowl in Manchester this year, on Sunday 8th February, to huddle on down with mates for the night.
1. The Brotherhood
Every Sunday, The Brotherhood showcases NFL games – so it’s no surprise that they’ll be providing refuge for the Super Bowl, too. The bar will be open right through until the end of play and serving food until late, so make sure you get down early to catch the full Brotherhood NFL experience.
Plus, local team Manchester Titans will be holding a hot wings competition on the night too, as they look to crown the Inaugural Manchester Titans x The Brotherhood hot wings champion. Bookings are no longer available for this event; however, walk-ins will be available all night on a first-come, first served basis, with nachos, burgers and plenty of beers on offer.
