The NFL is bringing its championship game back to metro Phoenix in 2023.
Though some information, such as when and where it’s happening and who’s performing during the halftime show, has been announced for Super Bowl 57, there are still some unknown variables.
Mainly, we won’t know which teams are going to face off for Super Bowl 2023 — which will be broadcast on Fox — until Jan. 29. That’s when the Philadelphia Eagles take on the San Francisco 49ers and the Cincinnati Bengals meet the Kansas City Chiefs. The two teams that emerge victorious from the conference championships will advance to the Super Bowl.
Until then, here’s everything we know about Super Bowl LVII, including the date and time, location, ticket prices, musical performers and NFL teams’ odds.

Why does the Super Bowl use Roman numerals?
Super Bowl LVII, colloquially, is Super Bowl 57.
According to the Super Bowl XL notes, quotes and anecdotes guide from 2006, “The Roman numerals were adopted to clarify any confusion that may occur because the NFL Championship Game — the Super Bowl — is played in the year following a chronologically recorded season.”

Arizona has hosted three previous Super Bowls.
On Jan. 28, 1996, the Dallas Cowboys beat the Pittsburgh Steelers at Sun Devil Stadium, 27-17.
On Feb. 3, 2008, the Cardinals’ Stadium in Glendale (then called University of Phoenix Stadium) hosted the game for the first time, a 17-14 win for the New York Giants over the New England Patriots.
The game returned Arizona for its second game at the Cardinals stadium in 2015, a 28-24 Patriots win over the Seattle Seahawks.
The 2023 Super Bowl, scheduled for Feb. 12, 2023, will be the fourth in Arizona and the third at the Cardinals’ stadium, which is now State Farm Stadium.
