Not only is the Arena Football League returning to Music City, but the Kats will return as the Nashville franchise alongside a familiar face on the operations side of things.

The AFL announced Wednesday morning that the Kats will play at the Municipal Auditorium and that former Tennessee Titans head coach Jeff Fisher will be the lead advisor.

“We are excited to announce Nashville to the AFL! The Kats will play at the Municipal Auditorium in Nashville. The ownership group is led by attorneys Tamara Dadd Alan and Nancy D. Eckert. Gregg Johnson will serve as GM and Jeff Fisher as Chief Advisor,” the league said.

The Kats’ return is scheduled for Saturday, April 27, 2024.
