How is the host city chosen for the Super Bowl?

The selection process used to be based on the NFL inviting cities to submit an official bid to host; however, in 2018, the full-scale competition was suspended.

The league now contacts the chosen city and asks it to develop a suitable proposal. The 32 teams owners then vote to accept or reject it.

Where will it be hosted in the future?

2026 LX Santa Clara, California, on Feb. 8 at the Levi’s Stadium

2027 LXI Inglewood, California, on Feb. 14 at SoFi Stadium

2028 LXII Atlanta, Georgia, on Feb. 13 at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium
