NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--On Sunday, Feb 12, the Empire State Building will again become a virtual scoreboard for the Super Bowl. Our world-famous lights will track Super Bowl LVII’s action in real-time. At sunset, our tower lights will be split down the middle in the colors of the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs. When each scores, the building will sparkle in that team’s colors for one minute, and then the tower lights will return to equal parts Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs.

When the winner is determined, the building will light in the colors of the Super Bowl champion, either the Chiefs or the Eagles, until 2 a.m. that evening.

The Super Bowl LVII kicks off at 6:30 p.m. ET on Sunday, February 12. More information about the ESB tower lights can be found online. Hi-res imagery of the tower lights can be downloaded here.
