When Super Bowl 58 is all said and done, preparations will already be under way for the 2025 venue — the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans.
It will be the 11th time the Super Bowl is held in the Big Easy, tying Miami for the most times hosting it.
Los Angeles (8), Tampa (5) and the Phoenix Metropolitan area (4), where Super Bowl 57 was held, are next.
The next two Super Bowl sites after New Orleans are also in place.
Super Bowl 60 in 2026 will be held at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, home of the San Francisco 49ers. It will be the second time the Super Bowl is held there, the first being in 2016.
After that, in 2027, SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, will host its second Super Bowl, the first coming in 2022.
After that, it’s anyone’s guess which venues will host the Super Bowl.
Heads or Tails?Highland Mint will make the flip coin for the 31st consecutive year for Super Bowl 58
Only 16 NFL team cities have played host to Super Bowls.
They include Miami, New Orleans, Los Angeles, Tampa, Phoenix, San Diego, Houston, Atlanta, Detroit, San Francisco, Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Las Vegas, Dallas-Fort Worth, Indianapolis and the New York metro area.
While it makes sense to host the game in warm weather cities, we’ve seen the reach expanded to cold weather destinations with outdoor stadiums, like MetLife in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
Obviously, new stadiums make great locales for a Super Bowl, but you also need enough hotels, restaurants and other amenities for the crowds that flock to town.
With that, here are five locations I believe will host Super Bowls from 2028-32.
2028: AT&T Stadium, Dallas Cowboys
I had this on my list last year.
The Dallas-Fort Worth metro area has hosted just one Super Bowl, in 2011. That was two years after Jerry World opened in 2009.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, the most powerful owner in the NFL, will want a Super Bowl sooner than later. He’s 81 now and will be 85 in 2028.
The bet is he gets one.
2029: Hard Rock Stadium, Miami
By the time 2029 rolls around, eight Super Bowls will have passed since one is held in South Florida.
Miami used to be the clubhouse leader for most Super Bowls hosted, but New Orleans will tie it with its 11th Super Bowl in 2025.
With that much time passing between Miami Super Bowls, it only makes sense that one returns to Hard Rock Stadium (or whatever it may be called five years from now).
2030: New stadium, Tennessee Titans
I haven’t wavered from this pick. I had it in the same spot on last year’s list.
The plan is to build a $2.2 billion domed roof stadium adjacent to Nissan Stadium.
Ground is expected to be broken later this year.
Nashville is a gem of a city and has never hosted a Super Bowl. It would be a great destination to host the big game.
2031: Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Atlanta
This is new to my list. Atlanta has hosted three Super Bowls and is a top host city for big events.
Atlanta last hosted a Super Bowl in 2019, so by the time 2031 rolls around, it will have been a dozen years.
Atlanta has plenty of hotels, restaurants and a Peachtree Street for every fan. I think they’ll be getting another Super Bowl sooner rather than later.
2032: EverBank Field, Jacksonville
Jacksonville hosted one Super Bowl in 2005, and let’s just say the city had to do a lot just to house guests. You know, like bring in cruise ships to the port so people could have a place to sleep.
Yet, the city and team are working toward an agreement that would give a roughly $1.5 billion facelift to EverBank Field, which is structurally sound, but needs a lot of improvements, such as shade, better amenities, bathrooms, concessions, etc… The hope is to have all this wrapped up by 2028, give or take.
The city is making great strides in improving the downtown area. They’ve torn down a bunch of the blight along the riverfront near the stadium, and now they have a blank canvas and plenty of time to paint on it.
Lure them in:Jacksonville would use $1.5 million to get back in the game for sports tourism
Owner Shad Khan is putting a lot of his own money into the city of Jacksonville, so you’d hope in seven years they’d build enough new infrastructure to give a first-rate Super Bowl experience.
Other Super Bowl considerations
At some point, a Super Bowl will return to Tampa. Tampa has hosted five Super Bowls and is a great place for visiting fans and teams during the winter. Plus, you'd think the league might owe the city one since their last one was held during the Pandemic.
If Chicago can follow through with a new enclosed stadium at the Arlington Heights location it purchased in 2023, this would be a great city for a Super Bowl. Yes, Chicago can have unfriendly weather in February, but it’s never held a Super Bowl, and having a dome would bolster the case for a first one in the Windy City.
Had Buffalo planned a domed stadium, I might have predicted that city, but given they want their new stadium to be open air, I doubt a Super Bowl would come there. Unless they postpone it until June. If the World Cup can be moved to December in Qatar, why can’t the Super Bowl be played in June in Buffalo?? OK, maybe not…
