Where is Super Bowl 60 being played? Let’s check it out. Welcome to Levi Stadium in Santa Clara, California. That’s the home of the 49ers and home of Super Bowl 60. Yep, he’s like Levi in ​​jeans. Back in the day, the 49ers and San Francisco Giants played at Candlestick Park in San Francisco, but it was demolished around 2015. Ground broke on the stadium in 2012, with an official ribbon cutting in 2014. The stadium can seat approximately 69,000 spectators, and according to the stadium, the most attended event to date is actually WrestleMania. The last Super Bowl game played here was a decade ago in 2016 when Denver defeated Carolina 42 to 10. But in 1985, before the levee was built, the Super Bowl also came to town, but they played at Stanford Stadium where the 49ers won over Miami. The Levee has 400 miles of data cable, 70 of which support Wi-Fi alone, and according to the stadium, it is the only venue of its kind to be recognized twice for LED certification. And there is an amusement park right next door. California’s Great America has been open since the mid-70s. It is currently owned by Six Flags, but according to the San Francisco Chronicle, it may be closed by 2027.
