The exact date is announced every year. Check the official announcement before you schedule posts.

What it is

Super Bowl Sunday is the day of the NFL championship game, usually played on a Sunday in early or mid February. In the United States it has become much more than a sports event: friends and families gather to watch, and snacks and food delivery are a big part of the day.

For businesses outside sports it is a seasonal hook. Cafés, restaurants and online shops can offer food for a crowd, game-day accessories or a friendly contest, as long as they use their own wording and do not imply any link to the league.

Symbols: Wings, nachos, pizza boxes, a couch full of friends, a foam finger, a halftime show

Emoji: 🏈 🍕 🍗 📺 🏆 🎉

Colours: Navy, red, green

Hashtags: #GameDay #BigGame #FootballSunday #GameDaySnacks #WatchParty

What to aim for

  • Win party orders and pre-orders before the game
  • Get comments and shares with a light contest
  • Remind customers about delivery times and opening hours

Post ideas by format

Post

  • A photo of your party platter or snack box with what is inside and how many people it feeds
  • A clear schedule post: last pre-order time, delivery cut-off and opening hours on game day

Carousel

  • “Game-day menu in 5 slides”: one slide per set, with serving size and a note on how to order
  • “How to host a watch party without stress”: a checklist for snacks, drinks and seating

Reel / short video

  • Hook: “Halftime in 30 seconds.” Show a platter being prepared and ready to go
  • A quick test: team members guess the score and snack of the year, end with a call to enter the contest

Stories

  • A poll: “Wings or nachos?” with a countdown sticker to the last pre-order time
  • A “predict the score” sticker; the closest guess wins a small prize

Big game on Sunday? Skip the cooking. Our game day box feeds a small group and includes sandwiches, sides and something sweet for halftime. Pre-orders are open until Saturday evening, and the link is in our bio. Tell us in the comments who you are cheering for, and we will make sure your box is ready on time.

Meme and trend formats that fit

  • Expectation vs reality. Two panels: the perfect party table you plan and the table after the first quarter. Use your own photos, not copied images of the event.
  • Not here for the game. A text-on-photo format about people who come for the snacks and ads, not the football. Keep it friendly and use your own food photos.

What to avoid

  • Do not use the league’s name or logo in a way that suggests an official partnership; refer to “the big game” if unsure
  • Do not promise delivery times you cannot keep on the busiest food day of the winter
  • Do not alienate people who do not follow football; keep an alternative like a snack poll

When to post

  • Open pre-orders at least a week ahead and set a clear cut-off time
  • Publish the menu early in the week and a reminder on Saturday and on game morning (Sunday 14 February in 2027)
  • On Monday thank customers and announce the contest winner

What to check afterwards

  • Pre-orders and delivery requests compared with a regular Sunday
  • Comments and entries in the contest
  • Saves of the menu carousel and link clicks to the order page
