Next year’s Super Bowl will land on President’s Day weekend
Much of the conversation regarding an inevitable 18th regular-season game centers on the fact that it would put the Super Bowl on the day before President’s Day.
Sometimes, however, the Super Bowl to end an 18-game season would overshoot the three-day weekend.
The headline of the Sports Business Journal blurb was that, on Wednesday, the Daytona International Speedway announced that the 2027 Daytona 500 will happen on February 21. That’s because the Super Bowl will be played a week earlier, on February 14. Which lands, for 2027, on President’s Day weekend.
Under the current 17-game, one-bye, post-Labor Day format, it will happen again in 2038, 2044, 2049, and 2055. (MDS did the deep calendar dive a few years ago, when the season expanded to 17 games.)
NASCAR Fans Not Happy With Moving Of The Daytona 500
Although fans didn't want NASCAR to make any huge changes to its early-season schedule, it was confirmed this week that the 2027 Daytona 500 has been moved off its traditional spot.
On Wednesday, Daytona International Speedway announced that it'll move its marquee event away from President's Day weekend. The 69th running of the Daytona 500 will take place on Feb. 21, 2027.
“We have fans from all 50 states and dozens of countries who look forward to kicking off the NASCAR season with us at The World Center of Racing, and we know many of them make their travel and lodging plans well in advance for the trip,” said Frank Kelleher, the president of Daytona international Speedway. “As the 2027 date shifts to Feb. 21, we wanted to give our amazing and loyal fans plenty of opportunity to prepare to be in Daytona Beach for the excitement the Great American Race provides each year.”
