NFL announces Super Bowl stadium for 2028
The NFL has announced that Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta will host Super Bowl LXII in 2028.
The game will be played in February 2028 and will mark the fourth time Atlanta has hosted the NFL’s showpiece event.
The announcement was made Tuesday during league meetings in Atlanta.
It is the first Super Bowl in Atlanta since February 2019, when the New England Patriots defeated the Los Angeles Rams 13-3.
The Super Bowl will be held in New Orleans this year before Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara and SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles get the rights in 2026 and 2027.
