Schedule Scout: San Francisco 49ers 2025
Are you ready to visit the Bay Area for some football this season? Or considering following the Niners out on the road? Either way, we’ve got all of the info you need to plan the best sports road trips possible.
For this Schedule Scout, we’ve included all of the teams in San Francisco, San Jose/Santa Clara, and even Sacramento, which is 90 miles away from downtown San Fran. How far you go is up to you, but we wanted you to know all of the options.

What we like
NFL Week 3 in the Bay Area offers up something for everyone. There’s college football at San Jose State, MLS and NWSL action at PayPal Park, NHL preseason at the Shark Tank, and, of course, the Cardinals visiting the Niners at Levi’s Stadium. If you extend your trip to Monday, you can also catch a Giants game at Oracle Park that night, and trust us – that park is worth staying over for.

What we like
For football fans, this is a great weekend. Two games at SoFi Stadium for the NFL, plus a trip to the Rose Bowl for UCLA vs. Penn State, would make for a great tripleheader.

*All times local to game location.
What we like
If you want the easy trip, get into Tampa on Saturday in time for the Lightning to take on the Devils. If you want the harder trip, start out in Tallahassee for Florida State vs. Pitt. It’s a very solid four-hour drive between Tallahassee and Tampa, so this is a full-fledged road trip, but if the schedules align, it may be worth it.

*All times local to game location.
What we like
It’s a really unusual weekend in New York, with no pro sports happening on Friday or Saturday. But Sabrina Carpenter is playing at The Garden, so if that’s of interest, it should be a great show.

What we like
Explore Cleveland on Friday and Saturday, but get a good night’s sleep so you can be ready for a Sunday doubleheader: Browns-49ers at 1:00, and Cavs-Celtics at 6:00. It’s a one-mile walk from one stadium to the other, right through the middle of downtown, so you can easily make it.

What we like
You got a little lucky this weekend in Indy. There happens to be a neutral-site basketball game between the Purdue and Auburn men’s basketball teams at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. So check that venue off your hit list, and then you’ll have all day on Sunday to watch NFL games at a downtown sports bar. Why? Because you’ve got all day on Monday for sightseeing in Indianapolis before Monday Night Football at 8:15.

What we like
It’s Christmas in the Bay Area. If you have the time (and deep pockets), you could catch the Warriors and Mavs on Christmas Day at the Chase Center. A drive to Sacramento for the Kings-Mavs game on Saturday is an option (90 miles), and you could stay overnight and still have plenty of time to get to Santa Clara for the 5:20 Niners-Bears kickoff.

What we like
It’s Christmas in the Bay Area. If you have the time (and deep pockets), you could catch the Warriors and Mavs on Christmas Day at the Chase Center. A drive to Sacramento for the Kings-Mavs game on Saturday is an option (90 miles), and you could stay overnight and still have plenty of time to get to Santa Clara for the 5:20 Niners-Bears kickoff.

What we like
The new year brings a full slate of sports to the Bay Area this week. Kings, Warriors, Niners, and Sharks are all at home. Wait to see when the football game gets scheduled, and then build your plans around that.

Bottom Line
If you’re heading to the Bay Area for sports this season, we recommend Week 4 for seeing Oracle Park, and Week 7 for its Cal / Sharks / Niners lineup.
If you’re following the Niners on the road this fall, we like Week 2 for an LSU/NFL doubleheader, Week 5 for an NFL doubleheader plus a trip to the Rose Bowl for UCLA, plus some MLS action. And finally, Week 11 in Phoenix, where you can see the Suns, ASU football, and the Cardinals-Niners game.
Happy sports travels!
