Although Sunday’s game will take place at the home of the San Francisco 49ers, Levi’s Stadium is 45 miles south of the Golden Gate Bridge in Santa Clara.

While San Francisco has been the main hub during Super Bowl week, events and parties have been spread around the Bay Area, beginning with Opening Night in San Jose on Monday.

Actor Jon Hamm hosted the NFL’s end-of-season awards night on Thursday, which was attended by Steve Irwin’s son Robert, who earlier in the day took a snake into the media centre to help promote the first NFL game in Melbourne later this year.

Shaquille O’Neal hosted a party on Friday while Post Malone held a free concert, with artists as diverse as Olivia Dean, Shaboozey, Sting, Calvin Harris, Zach Bryan and Teddy Swims playing at other events.

Cardi B also performed on Saturday before watching her partner Stefon Diggs play for the Patriots on Sunday, when Charlie Puth, Brandi Carlile and Coco Jones are also among the gameday performers.

Other visitors include Roger Federer, Jay Z, Travis Scott, Mark Wahlberg and Paris St-Germain owner Nasser Al-Khelaifi.

Wahlberg’s fellow New England fan Jon Bon Jovi will introduce the Patriots players on Sunday, with actor Chris Pratt, a Seattle supporter, doing the honours for the Seahawks.
