2027 Super Bowl VIP Transportation:
Black Cars, SUVs and Limos for Super Bowl LXI Week

Most Super Bowl guests ask where to park. Some ask where the jet should park. If your guest list for Super Bowl LXI includes clients, executives, artists or anyone whose idea of roughing it is a sedan without a partition, the week of February 8, 2027 in Los Angeles is a precision exercise: private-aviation slots, hotel arrivals, a week of parties and dinners, a stadium with no parking, and, because the game falls on February 14, every good restaurant in town booked for Valentine's Day. Here is how to move VIP guests through Super Bowl week calmly, on time and without a single "where's my car?"

Super Bowl LXI VIP transportation at a glance

Arriving by private jet

Private aviation is the first traffic jam of Super Bowl week, it just happens at 40,000 feet. For Super Bowl LVI at SoFi in 2022, the region braced for up to 1,100 extra general-aviation flights between February 6 and 14, including about 350 extra arrivals at Van Nuys. LAX, Hawthorne, Van Nuys, Burbank, Long Beach, John Wayne, Ontario, San Bernardino and Santa Monica all required aircraft-parking reservations from February 9 to 15, according to the NBAA, and operators were encouraged to drop passengers and reposition, with Las Vegas, Palm Springs and San Diego expected to take the overflow. Hawthorne, the closest airport to the stadium, ran five arrival and five departure slots an hour. On game day itself, a flight restriction covered the stadium area through the afternoon and evening.

The FAA publishes each Super Bowl's procedures closer to the game, but the lesson holds: the car should be waiting before the wheels touch down. Give your chauffeur the tail number, the FBO and the slot time, and plan a second vehicle for luggage if the party travels heavy. A drop-and-go jet means the car is the only thing that stays.

Arriving on an airline

LAX sits about three miles from SoFi, under the stadium's flight path, and on the Monday after Super Bowl LVI the TSA screened more than 81,000 travelers there. Hollywood Burbank, Long Beach, John Wayne in Orange County and Ontario are all within reach, and in 2022 Ontario expected more corporate and private-jet traffic because of the game. For a VIP, the difference is the meet: a chauffeur tracking the flight, a vehicle at the curb when the bags come out, and no one standing in a rideshare zone in a cashmere coat.

Black cars and luxury SUVs

The workhorses of Super Bowl week: a black sedan for one guest and a laptop, a big luxury SUV for a guest with company, luggage and a security detail. Privacy glass, a professional chauffeur and a car that blends in at every hotel door in Beverly Hills.

Rolls-Royce, Bentley and the statement cars

For the arrival at the party, the dinner on Valentine's Day or the client you really want to impress, nothing says "we planned this" like a Rolls-Royce or a Bentley at the curb.

Executive Sprinters for the entourage

The artist, the manager, the stylist, the security team and the bags: an executive Sprinter keeps the whole group together, with leather captain's chairs, room to work between stops and space for the wardrobe cases.

Best for: teams of six to fourteen. See Mercedes Sprinter rental in Los Angeles.

Limousines for the parties

Super Bowl week is a week of parties, brand events and late dinners, and on February 14 the whole city goes out at once. A stretch limousine takes a group of guests from the hotel to the party and home again, with no one counting rideshares.

Where VIPs stay, and why the car comes with the room

Hotels fill early in a Super Bowl week. Over the weekend of Super Bowl LVI, hotels in Hollywood and Beverly Hills ran about 89% full and those around LAX, nearest the stadium, about 86%, according to STR, and the forecasters expected 100,000 to 150,000 out-of-town visitors. This time, Valentine's Day and Presidents' Day share the same weekend. When you book the suite in Beverly Hills, Santa Monica or Downtown Los Angeles, book the car for the same dates: the best drivers and the best cars go first, just like the best rooms.

How to run Super Bowl week for a VIP

• Book by the week, not the ride. One chauffeur who knows the guest, the schedule and the hotel staff beats seven different drivers.
• Add a second car. Luggage, assistants, a security lead or a last-minute guest: a spare SUV or Sprinter on call saves the day more often than you'd think.
• Plan around game-day closures. At Super Bowl LVI, northbound Prairie Avenue was closed from 1 a.m. Sunday to 2 a.m. Monday, with lane closures on Century Boulevard and Manchester Avenue. Expect a wide security perimeter: in 2022, the LAPD, the FBI and federal agencies all worked the event.
• Arrive early. In 2022, SoFi's gates opened at 11:30 a.m. for a kickoff at about 3:30 p.m. VIP hospitality starts even earlier.
• Agree on the exit plan. A set pickup point and time after the game, confirmed by text, is worth more than the fastest car.
• Keep it discreet. No names on the arrival sign, no social posts from the car, and a chauffeur who knows not to mention who was in the back seat.
• Book Valentine's dinner now. The game ends on Valentine's night, on a holiday weekend: the best tables go fast.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest airport to SoFi Stadium for private jets?

Hawthorne Municipal Airport is the closest. Van Nuys, Burbank, Long Beach, Santa Monica and John Wayne also handle private aircraft for the Los Angeles area.

Do private jets need a reservation for the Super Bowl in Los Angeles?

For Super Bowl LVI in 2022, nine Southern California airports required aircraft-parking reservations from February 9 to 15. The FAA publishes Super Bowl LXI's procedures closer to the game, so plan for the same.

Can a chauffeur drop off at SoFi Stadium on Super Bowl Sunday?

For regular games, SoFi's drop-off is on Kareem Court. The Super Bowl has its own security perimeter and plan, which the NFL publishes the week of the game, so your chauffeur will plan the drop-off around it.

How far ahead should we book VIP transportation for Super Bowl LXI?

As early as you book the hotel. Super Bowl week, Valentine's Day and Presidents' Day all fall together, so the best cars and chauffeurs are reserved first.

What is the best car for a VIP guest at the Super Bowl?

A black sedan or SUV for most guests, a Rolls-Royce or Bentley for the big arrival, and an executive Sprinter for an entourage. Book a second vehicle for luggage and staff.
