Las Vegas Set to Host Super Bowl LXIII in 2029
Las Vegas – The National Football League has confirmed that Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium will once again be the center of the football universe, hosting Super Bowl LXIII in 2029. The announcement, made during the NFL Annual Meeting on Monday, March 30, 2026, solidifies Las Vegas’ position as a premier destination for major sporting events.
This marks the second time the city will host the Super Bowl, following a successful debut in February 2024 when the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the San Francisco 49ers 25-22 in overtime at Allegiant Stadium. The 2024 game drew over 330,000 visitors to the region and generated more than $1 billion in economic impact, according to the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA).
A Shift in League Philosophy
The decision to award Las Vegas another Super Bowl represents a significant shift in the NFL’s approach to hosting its marquee event. For years, the league had been hesitant to embrace Las Vegas due to concerns surrounding sports betting. Still, with the increasing legalization of sports wagering across the United States and the successful execution of Super Bowl LVIII in the city, those concerns have largely dissipated. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell had indicated a willingness to return to Las Vegas even after the 2024 game, recognizing the city’s unique appeal.
“We’re excited to bring the Super Bowl back to Las Vegas and provide our fans another incredible experience in one of America’s greatest sport and entertainment destinations,” Goodell said in a statement. “Super Bowl LVIII demonstrated the scale, energy and hospitality the city brings to global events, and we look forward to working alongside the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, the Raiders and the community to deliver an even greater experience this time around.”
Allegiant Stadium: A Proven Venue
Opened in 2020, Allegiant Stadium, home of the Las Vegas Raiders, has quickly established itself as a world-class venue capable of hosting large-scale events. Beyond Super Bowl LVIII, the stadium likewise hosted the NFL Draft in 2022, further demonstrating its ability to handle the logistical demands of major sporting gatherings. The stadium’s state-of-the-art facilities and central location on the Las Vegas Strip contribute to its appeal.
The Road to 2029: Future Super Bowl Locations
The NFL has already announced the host cities for the next three Super Bowls following the 2024 event. SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, will host Super Bowl LXI in 2027, after hosting Super Bowl LVI in 2022. Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia, is slated to host Super Bowl LXII in 2028, marking a return to the city after hosting Super Bowl LIII in 2019. Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California hosted Super Bowl LX in 2026, with the Eagles defeating the Chiefs 40-22 in that game. The league is clearly prioritizing venues with proven track records and strong infrastructure.
Here’s a look at the confirmed Super Bowl schedule through 2029:
- Super Bowl LXIII (2029): Allegiant Stadium, Paradise, Las Vegas, Nevada

Las Vegas: A Growing Sports Hub
The awarding of Super Bowl LXIII is just the latest example of Las Vegas’ growing prominence as a major sports hub. In addition to the NFL’s presence, the city is also set to become the new home of the Oakland Athletics baseball team in 2028, with a new stadium currently under construction. The city also hosted the Final Four of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament in 2028 at Allegiant Stadium. There is even speculation about Las Vegas potentially landing an NBA expansion team, with a possible debut season in 2028-29.
The convergence of professional and collegiate sports, coupled with the city’s renowned entertainment offerings, positions Las Vegas as a unique and attractive destination for sports fans from around the globe. The LVCVA estimates that Super Bowl LVIII generated over $1 billion in economic impact, and officials anticipate an even larger return in 2029.
“We’re proud the NFL has selected Las Vegas to host Super Bowl LXIII,” said Steve Hill, president and CEO of the LVCVA. “Our first Super Bowl showcased the unique energy and scale only this destination can offer, bringing together world-class sports, entertainment, and hospitality in one place. Las Vegas was built for moments like this, and we look forward to delivering another exceptional experience for fans in 2029.”
Raiders owner Mark Davis echoed that sentiment, stating, “We’re excited that the Super Bowl will be returning to Las Vegas and Allegiant Stadium in 2029. It’s a testament to the Raiders, the LVCVA, civic leaders, the community, and the NFL working together as one. Super Bowl LVIII set a high bar, and for Super Bowl LXIII we are committed to raising it even further.”
