Super Bowl LVII, or the 2023 Super Bowl, is taking place on February 12th in the United States - and people in Austria will be able to watch the Kansas City Chiefs x Philadelphia Eagles at 00:30 on Monday, February 13th. But how?

The public channel ORF will not broadcast the event, but other media will. You will be able to see the game and halftime show (Rihanna back on stage!) on the channels Puls24 and ProSieben, which also offer streaming. Additionally, the streaming service DAZN will also show the game.

Even though Austria is not a country where American football is particularly popular, the Super Bowl is a major event, and many bars and pubs hold viewing parties. The final is not for another month, but some of the most popular Super Bowl parties in Vienna are already selling (and even selling out of) tickets. 

Here are some of the main events for watching the Super Bowl in Vienna:

Super Bowl Party at Vienna Marriot Hotel

One of the most "traditional" Super Bowl parties in Austria. The Marriott Hotel is in the first district and has an all-you-can-eat and all-you-can-drink offer. The streaming is also with the original English commentary by the NFL crew on FOX this year.

The night has three menus (but very few vegetarian or vegan options) from 9 pm until the end of the game. Tickets start at 99€.

Super Bowl Night at Admiral Arena Prater

The drinks include beer, wine, juices, soft drinks, coffee and tea and dishes are served in the American buffet. From 3 am, there is a rich breakfast buffet (but there are very few vegetarian or vegan options). Tickets cost €99.
