VTA breaks new ridership record for Super Bowl LX, smashing the previous all-time high set by Taylor Swift’s “Eras Tour” concert

It’s not often that Taylor Swift gets dethroned from the top of the leaderboard, but on Super Bowl Sunday, the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority set a new daily light rail ridership record that smashed the one previously held by Swift’s 2023 “Eras Tour” concert.

More than 30,000 riders boarded light rail to get to Super Bowl LX at Levi’s Stadium and other related events around the South Bay on Feb. 8 — more than triple the number of passengers the last time Santa Clara hosted the Big Game in 2016.
