While the Bay Area is no stranger to major sporting events thanks to recent dynasties (see Golden State Warriors and San Francisco Giants) and a tradition of breeding Super Bowls (see San Francisco 49ers), the region is set to host some of the world's biggest sporting events in 2025 and 2026.

The Bay Area Host Committee is bringing the 2025 NBA All-Star Game, the Super Bowl in early 2026 and the FIFA World Cup later that year.
