Raiders to play in Bay Area for first time since leaving for Las Vegas

The Las Vegas Raiders will return to the Bay Area for the first time since leaving Oakland after the 2019 season, as the NFL confirmed on May 13, 2026 that their scheduled game against the San Francisco 49ers will be played at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara rather than in Mexico City. The Mexico City international game slot was instead awarded to the 49ers vs. Minnesota Vikings matchup. This will mark the Raiders' first appearance in the Bay Area in approximately six years.
