About Super Bowl LXI

Super Bowl LXI is Sunday, February 14, 2027 at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood — the NFL's second Super Bowl at this venue (after LVI in 2022) and the ninth hosted by Greater Los Angeles. The game is the Sunday, but the hotel problem is the week: media, official events, and hospitality packages fill Inglewood and LAX from Thursday through Monday. SoFi sits next to Intuit Dome, Kia Forum, and YouTube Theater, which is why the Stadium District is a real stay zone instead of "just stay somewhere in LA." Downtown / L.A. Live hotels now exist in this catalog for Anime Expo at LACC — they are still the wrong Super Bowl default. This guide covers the hotels that actually serve the stadium.

2027 The Event

What's happening

  • Super Bowl LXI — AFC vs NFC champions at SoFi Stadium

Also on the calendar

  • Super Bowl week official events and hospitality
  • NFL Honors and media week programming
  • Stadium District concerts at Kia Forum / Intuit Dome vary by year

Official tickets and hospitality packages are sold through On Location. Kickoff is listed at 3:30 p.m. PT on February 14, 2027 — confirm session times on nfl.com / sofistadium.com before locking non-refundable rooms.

Tickets

Official hospitality packages typically start in the mid-four figures; secondary-market game tickets commonly run several thousand dollars and up

Where to get them: On Location (official NFL hospitality) and Ticketmaster as the official ticket marketplace — sofistadium.com / onlocationexp.com

Hotel demand is not limited to ticket holders. Super Bowl week draws media, sponsors, and unofficial events, which is why Inglewood and LAX compress even for travelers who never enter the stadium.

Hotel Booking Strategy

Best time to book6–12 months ahead for The Anthem or any walkable Inglewood room; 4–8 months for LAX inventory if you can stay flexible
Typical rate increaseSuper Bowl host cities see some of the steepest US hotel compression of the year. Inglewood walkable rooms disappear first; LAX towers become the overflow and still price like an event hotel, not a quiet airport night. TripSignal off-peak rates are planning anchors only.
  • Book The Anthem first if walking to SoFi matters — 179 rooms is not Super Bowl-week inventory
  • Use Hilton LAX, Marriott LAX, Hyatt Regency LAX, or Westin LAX when Inglewood is gone or you need a group block
  • TownePlace Suites Hawthorne is the suite-and-kitchen play for groups who would otherwise stack two standard rooms
  • Block Thursday or Friday through Monday (February 11 or 12 through 15) in one reservation — Saturday-only nights vanish
  • Downtown / L.A. Live is in the catalog for Anime Expo — it is still a game-day drive for Super Bowl Sunday
  • Treat current TripSignal shoulder-season rates as planning anchors, not Super Bowl-week quotes

Frequently asked questions

What hotels are closest to SoFi Stadium for the Super Bowl?

The Anthem Los Angeles Stadium District is the only TripSignal hotel in walking distance of SoFi, Intuit Dome, and Kia Forum. Elev8 and Holiday Inn are short Inglewood/LAX drives. Hilton, Hyatt Regency, Westin, and Marriott on the LAX corridor are the inventory overflow about 3–4 miles away.

Should I stay in Downtown LA or near SoFi for Super Bowl week?

Stay near SoFi if the game is the trip — game-day traffic from Downtown, Hollywood, or Santa Monica is the expensive surprise. Downtown / L.A. Live is in the catalog for Anime Expo at LACC, not as a Super Bowl starting point.

When should I book a hotel for Super Bowl LXI?

Book 6–12 months ahead for The Anthem or any small Inglewood hotel. Book 4–8 months out for LAX towers if you need a block of rooms. Waiting for rates to drop in January rarely works in a Super Bowl host market.

How many nights should I book for the Super Bowl?

Plan Thursday or Friday through Monday (February 11 or 12–15, 2027). Single Saturday nights are scarce and priced accordingly. Kickoff is 3:30 p.m. PT on Sunday, so a Monday checkout is the practical default.

Is LAX a good Super Bowl base?

Yes as an inventory and fly-in strategy. You will not walk to the stadium, but you stay on the SoFi side of the metro, keep airport logistics simple, and have a much better chance of finding a room after Inglewood sells out.
