Nashville will host its first Super Bowl in 2030 after NFL owners approved the city’s bid Tuesday during the league’s Spring League Meeting in Orlando, Florida.
“The 2019 NFL Draft in Nashville was one of the great fan events in our history,” NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement. “Super Bowl LXIV at the new stadium is the next step in this remarkable football journey.”
The announcement gives Nashville another major national sports event after the city hosted the 2019 NFL Draft, which drew an estimated 600,000 fans and generated a reported $224 million economic impact, according to the Titans.
The Nashville Convention & Visitors Corp. will serve as the lead event organizer, coordinating with city and state agencies. The Titans will serve as the host club.
“Hosting the Super Bowl is a defining moment for Nashville and Tennessee and reflects years of work to build Music City into a globally recognized destination for music, entertainment, and live events,” said Deana Ivey, president and CEO of the Nashville Convention & Visitors Corp.
Titans controlling owner Amy Adams Strunk said the announcement marks a major moment for the city and state.
“We are thrilled that the new Nissan Stadium will host Nashville’s first Super Bowl in 2030,” Strunk said. “This is an exciting moment for our city and our entire state.”
The NFL has now set its next four Super Bowl sites. The NFL will hold Super Bowl LXI at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, in 2027.. Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta will host in 2028, Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas will host in 2029, and Nissan Stadium in Nashville will host in 2030.
