- NFL owners are set to officially grant Super Bowl LXIII to Las Vegas next week
- Allegiant Stadium previously created a $1 billion economic impact during its 2024 hosting debut
- Las Vegas and Los Angeles have become the NFL’s favored ongoing Super Bowl venues
Reports indicate that NFL owners are likely to officially designate Las Vegas as the host for Super Bowl 2029 next week. Although a vote by NFL owners is anticipated as early as Monday during their meeting in Phoenix, ESPN‘s Adam Schefter cited a source calling the decision a “formality.”
Following the successful hosting of Super Bowl LVIII in 2024, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell expressed enthusiasm about returning to Las Vegas.
“The NFL is eager to come back,” he conveyed to the Las Vegas organizing committee.
Typically, the NFL designates a host city for the Super Bowl three to four years in advance, favoring cities with domed stadiums or warm climates. The 2029 event is scheduled for February.
Once the vote for Super Bowl 63 takes place, the venues for the three subsequent Super Bowls will be confirmed. Next year’s game will return to Los Angeles at SoFi Stadium, and in 2028, it will be held at Atlanta’s Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
Negotiations between Las Vegas officials and the NFL commenced last year.
Super-Bowl Economic Impact
Las Vegas welcomed the Super Bowl for the first time on February 11, 2024, when the Kansas City Chiefs triumphed over the San Francisco 49ers with a score of 25–22 in an exhilarating overtime match. Shortly after, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce humorously attempted to sing a chorus of Elvis Presley’s “Viva Las Vegas” on the field.
The event attracted approximately 330,000 visitors, breaking records at Harry Reid International Airport, which experienced 104,000 passengers the following day.
According to the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, the event generated a substantial $1 billion economic boost for the city, inclusive of $877 million in visitor spending. Super Bowl attendees averaged an expenditure of $2,660 per person, more than double the spending of the usual Vegas visitor.
The excitement surrounding the event permeated far beyond the stadium, with hotels, nightclubs, and various venues accommodating NFL partners, sponsors, and celebrities.
Moreover, the event produced approximately 5 billion impressions through media coverage, offering valuable exposure for Las Vegas.
