"A secretive Friday night Grace Cathedral event that has been publicly named only as "private event is shutting down streets for three days. Turns out it's the private Super Bowl party for NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. We learned late last week that there would be a whole bunch of SF street closures for Super Bowl-related events, which totally makes sense, because there will be big crowds and big celebrities at many of these events."
"But one of these events jumped out at us because of its oddly high level of secrecy, something described only as "private event at Grace Cathedral, which is scheduled for Friday night, but for some reason is allowed three days of road closures. Consider the two images above from the Super Bowl's official Bay Area Host Committee, both depicting street closures for Super Bowl events."
"SFist has learned what this super-secret private event really is. And oddly, we learned this from an email sent to parents at Cathedral School for Boys, which is adjacent to Grace Cathedral. "The NFL will hold its annual Super Bowl Commissioner's Party in Grace Cathedral on Friday, February 6, 2026. As a result, security and logistics on Nob Hill that day will not allow us to conduct school, the school said in an email to parents."
A private Friday night event at Grace Cathedral received three days of street closures, parking restrictions, and a drone ban despite being a one-night gathering. The event is the NFL Commissioner's annual Super Bowl party for Roger Goodell. Multiple Super Bowl-related events across San Francisco produced many planned street closures due to expected large crowds and celebrity attendees. Local logistics and security measures around Nob Hill included background checks, vehicle searches, and loss of access to drop-off and pick-up zones. Cathedral School for Boys canceled school on the event day because the security limitations made normal operations impossible.
