Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce’s Valentine’s Day Could Clash With Super Bowl

First things first: Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce need to tie the knot and the Kansas City Chiefs need to rebound from a disastrous 2025-2026 season to make it to next year’s Super Bowl LXI at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles.

But if those two things happen before next Feb. 14, it’s possible that one of the most-watched celebrity couples on the planet may have to delay their first Valentine’s Day as a married couple to let Kelce go to work. On Wednesday’s (May 20) episode of his New Heights podcast, Kelce lamented that next year’s big game happens to fall on the same date as the romantic holiday.

“I don’t think I could ever remember it being that late in February,” Kelce, 36, noted after the NFL announced the locations and dates for the next few Super Bowls this week. “In my mind, it’s, what’s going on? Is it just kinda how the month of September starts here?”

Brother Jason weighed in and said he seemed to remember V-Day being close to the Super Bowl in the past and recalled it being “big news” for men to be watching the game on the day reserved for romance.

For its first 35 years , the Super Bowl was played in January. It began creeping into February in 2002, when it took place on Feb. 3 in the Superdome in New Orleans. For the next 20 years it bounced around the first week of February, getting as close to Feb. 13 in 2022.

So, while it’s possible next year’s game could delay Taylor and Travis’ Valentine’s plans, at this point the couple —  who got engaged last August — have not revealed any details about their nuptials, so it’s not even clear they will officially be married come February, though it’s widely expected that they will tie the knot this summer.

First, though, the Chiefs need to bounce back from one of Kelce’s statistically worst full seasons as a professional tight end and quarterback Patrick Mahomes’ devastating ACL/LCL tear during a game on Dec. 14 against the Chargers that knocked the three-time Super Bowl champ out for the rest of the season. Mahomes underwent surgery the next day and while he is reportedly on track for a return this season it’s unclear if he will be available to start the season.

Either way, Swift is used to cheering Kelce on during the championship game, supporting him when the team won in 2024 and then again in 2025, when they lost to Jason’s former team, the Philadelphia Eagles. A silver lining to it all is that while Travis will be playing the Buffalo Bills on Thanksgiving this November, the Chiefs are not on the scheduled for the NFL’s Christmas Day roster.
