How to stream the 2026 Super Bowl for free: Patriots vs. Seahawks time, where to watch and more

Here's how to catch the 2026 Super Bowl between the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks for free. The highly-anticipated game is scheduled to kick off at 6:30 p.m. ET on Sunday, February 8.

For those without access to NBC or Peacock, streaming options are available through DirecTV and Hulu + Live TV. Both services offer free trials and come with a range of channels that cater to sports enthusiasts, including ESPN, TNT, ACC Network, Big Ten Network, CBS Sports Network, and local affiliates for ABC, CBS, Fox, and NBC.

For Peacock users without the premium plan, there's an ad-supported option available through Walmart+, which is bundled with Paramount+. This partnership means Walmart+ subscribers can access Peacock content at no additional cost. The service costs $12.99 per month or $98 per year, but new members can take advantage of a free trial.

Instacart+ subscribers also get to enjoy an annual Peacock Premium plan for free after a 14-day trial period. Instacart+ plans are priced at $99 annually.

Additionally, fans in the US can catch live coverage on Telemundo as part of NBC's Spanish-language broadcast.

Before the game begins, tune in to Green Day for a pre-game show starting at 6 p.m. ET, followed by singer Charlie Puth performing the national anthem and Brandi Carlile singing "America the Beautiful". Grammy winner Coco Jones will close out with a rendition of "Lift Every Voice and Sing".

For those who can't secure tickets or find a live streaming option that suits their budget, don't worry – there are more ways to catch Super Bowl LX for free.
 
Ugh, I mean, yay! Free Super Bowl coverage? Finally, something that's not breaking the bank πŸ€‘. But seriously, who needs all these options? Can't we just have one simple way to watch without having to sign up for a gazillion services? And what's with the ad-supported option on Peacock? $12.99 a month is still kinda steep, but I guess it's better than paying cash πŸ€‘. And for those who can't get tickets or streaming, they just need to "not worry" πŸ™„... like that's an easy one. Anyway, I'm sure the pre-game show will be lit... said no one ever 😴.
 
Ugh I'm so done with trying to keep up with all the TV streaming options πŸ“ΊπŸ˜© can't we just have one simple way to watch the Super Bowl without breaking the bank? Like, I know I've got a big family and we all want to see it but $98 a year for Peacock Premium? No thanks πŸ’Έ. And don't even get me started on Instacart+ 🀯. I mean what's up with those annual plans? Why not just give us free access to the games like they used to do back in the day?! πŸˆπŸ‘Ž
 
Ugh, good luck with that... πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ They're gonna be way too busy watching the game in person to care about all these streaming options anyway... meanwhile, the economy is still struggling and inflation's gonna go through the roof next year πŸ’ΈπŸ˜¬ just saying.
 
🏈 I'm not sure why anyone would want to watch the Patriots vs Seahawks game for free - both teams have been struggling this season and it's gonna be a snooze fest 🀯. On the other hand, if you're looking for a good excuse to catch up on some shopping or errands while the game is on, then sure thing! The Walmart+ deal with Peacock is a pretty sweet perk πŸ‘. And hey, at least they're including live coverage on Telemundo for Spanish-speaking fans 🌎. I mean, who doesn't love a good pre-game show and some patriotic tunes to get you pumped up? But if you're really looking to catch the game without breaking the bank or paying extra for premium content, you might wanna try something else πŸ€”.
 
omg u guys i'm literally so stoked for the 2026 super bowl!!! 🀩 i know some ppl might be worried about not having cable or being able to afford it but like there r so many options out there now! walmart+ and instacart+ are amazing deals and they've got peacock on offer which is def worth checking out. plus u can always find ways to watch online for free lol πŸ€‘ what's the one thing that's got u most hyped about the super bowl this year tho? 😁
 
OMG, this is gonna be epic!!! 🀩 I'm so hyped for the game between the Pats and Seahawks! And, yaaas, getting to watch it for free? That's a total win-win, fam! πŸŽ‰ DirecTV and Hulu + Live TV have got me covered, and Peacock with Walmart+ is a sick deal too. I mean, who doesn't love an ad-supported option, right? πŸ˜‚ And, cool that Instacart+ subscribers get a free Peacock Premium plan after a trial period – that's some serious perks, tbh! 🀩 Live coverage on Telemundo for the Spanish-speaking crowd is fire, and the pre-game show lineup with Green Day, Charlie Puth, Brandi Carlile... this is gonna be one for the books, LOL! πŸ’₯
 
Ugh, I'm getting so frustrated with these streaming services 🀯! Can't we just get one simple way to watch the game without breaking the bank? Like, I know they're trying to make a profit and all, but can't they offer more affordable options for people who are on a tight budget? I mean, I'd love to catch the game live, but $99 for Instacart+ just seems so steep πŸ€‘. And don't even get me started on Peacock's premium plan... $12.99 a month is like, what even is that?! 😩 Anyway, at least Telemundo has their Spanish-language broadcast, so I guess that's something πŸ“Ί
 
πŸ€” I'm kinda split on this one... I mean, who doesn't wanna catch the Super Bowl for free? 🏈 But at the same time, supporting your local channels and streaming services is a big deal. And let's be real, you get what you pay for - the ad-supported option might not be as smooth as the premium ones, but it's still a way to access all that great sports content. Plus, there are some awesome collaborations like Walmart+ and Instacart+ giving their subscribers some sweet perks πŸ€©πŸ‘
 
I'm stoked the 2026 Super Bowl is gonna be available for free, but I gotta say, I'm a bit skeptical about all these 'free' options πŸ€”. Like, have you seen the prices of those streaming services? $12.99/month or $98/year for Peacock Premium? That's not exactly cheap πŸ’Έ. And what's up with the Walmart+ and Instacart+ stuff? Are they really gonna make it that easy to get Peacock Premium for free? πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ I hope so, but I need a little more convincing 😐. Still, it's great that NBC is offering some options for people who can't afford or don't want to pay for premium channels πŸŽ‰. Maybe we'll see some innovative solutions from the streaming services themselves? A guy can dream 😊.
 
omg u guys i was thinking of watching the super bowl this yr but i dont have cable lol i just checked out these options on the internet and its actually pretty cool direcTV has a free trial or something i also saw that walmart+ is bundled with peacock which sounds like a sweet deal anyone know how to set it up
 
OMG, u guys gotta check this out 🀯! I know some ppl might be thinking "How am i s'posed to watch the Super Bowl without breaking the bank?" πŸ’Έ but like, seriously, who needs a fancy streaming service when u can get it on Peacock for free πŸŽ‰? I mean, sure, there's an ad-supported option, but c'mon, $12.99 a month is waaay too much πŸ’Έ! Instacart+ subscribers are also good to go with that annual plan πŸ€‘ so yeah, if u got one of those subs, u're all set! πŸŽ‰ And let's not forget about Telemundo for the Spanish-language broadcast - love that they're including it 🌟! Anywayz, don't stress 'bout getting tickets or finding a way in... there r plenty of ways to catch the game without dishing out $$$ πŸ’Έ
 
omg i cant even wait 6:30 p.m. ET is like so close!! 🀩 the pre-game show with green day is gonna be lit πŸ’ƒπŸ½πŸŽΈ and charlie puth performing the national anthem is a great idea ❀️ cant wait to see brandi carlile sing "america the beautiful" πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ too!
