"While hundreds of thousands of fans will flock to the city in 2026 for both events, most of the fanfare around the games is expected to take place in San Francisco and San Jose. Santa Clara has struggled to capture the attention of the nation since the San Francisco 49ers moved from Candlestick Park to Levi's Stadium in 2014. NFL broadcasts often pan to sweeping views of the Golden Gate bridge or San Francisco's picturesque skyline when fading in and out of commercial breaks."
"City officials hope the slogan, and the accompanying logo, help rally pride in the community and become a lasting part of Santa Clara's identity. Where The Mission Meets The Moment draws on the city's moniker as the Mission City a reference to the Mission Santa Clara de Asis on Santa Clara University's campus. It's one of 21 Spanish missions in California erected in the 18th and early 19th centuries."
Santa Clara unveiled the slogan "Where The Mission Meets The Moment" to cement its place on the global stage while preparing to host the Super Bowl and the FIFA World Cup in 2026 at Levi's Stadium. Most fanfare for the events is expected to take place in San Francisco and San Jose, leaving Santa Clara seeking greater national visibility after the 49ers' 2014 move from Candlestick Park. City officials intend the slogan and logo to rally community pride and strengthen local identity by invoking the city's Mission City moniker and historic Mission Santa Clara de Asis.
