Baby, let the games begin.
In an interview with PEOPLE on Tuesday, Feb. 4, Jason Kelce confirms that Taylor Swift will be heading to the Super Bowl in New Orleans to support her boyfriend Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs as they take on the Philadelphia Eagles.
When asked about who’s coming into town for the Big Game and whether it’d be a family affair, Jason made it known that Travis’ cheer squad is assembling. “Yeah, I think everybody’s coming in,” he began before rattling off some names.
“I mean, I don’t want to speak for everybody, but I think obviously, our whole family. I believe, obviously Trav and Taylor, and his family and his friends. I mean, Trav always travels like, full,” he says of his younger brother.
“Even when he’s in regular season mode… he’s always got a bunch of his friends there. It’s been this way his whole career,” Jason adds. “He’s kept in touch much better with a lot of the people from our hometown. So there’s always a loaded contingency for the Kelces, wherever we’re at.”
Swift has been a suite staple at Chiefs game over the course of the season, continuing her support for Travis since her first appearance at one of his games in September 2023.

Most recently, Swift attended the nailbiting game between the Buffalo Bills and Chiefs on Jan. 26 at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, where the the home team came out victorious with a 32-29 win over the Bills to secure their spot in the Super Bowl.
When the clock ticked down and the Chiefs secured the win, Swift made her way down to the field — like she did after last year’s AFC Championship game — to celebrate with Kelce amid the confetti flying in the sky. They were seen hugging, kissing and saying “I love you” as they celebrated.
The Chiefs’ return to the Super Bowl this year puts them in a unique position. Should they defeat the Eagles, the Chiefs will be the first team in the history of the NFL to “three-peat” at a Super Bowl, following their back-to-back victories in 2023 and 2024.
It will also mark Swift’s return to the Super Bowl, too, since last year when the Chiefs played the San Fransisco 49ers in Las Vegas. The 14-Grammy winner was in a star-studded suite, alongside her group of friends as they cheered in support.
When thinking about his brother and the Chiefs making NFL history with a three-peat win, Jason tells PEOPLE that “it’d be a really cool thing to be able to say that you’ve done.” He adds, “It’s an incredible opportunity.”
