When Levi’s Stadium was opened in 2014, it instantly became a Super Bowl host candidate and was selected for it’s first Super Bowl in 2016. The selection came two full years before the stadium even opened. That Super Bowl 50 game just so happened to be between the Denver Broncos and Carolina Panthers.
As a local living near Sacramento, I was able to drive over and enjoy the events at Super Bowl City and downtown San Francisco. The stadium itself has a great look and feel to it from every aspect to it.
