With an owners’ vote on the horizon, the NFL plans to award Super Bowl LXII in February 2028 to Atlanta, Sports Business Journal reported Thursday.
Team owners are scheduled to meet in Atlanta in October to hold a vote on the matter.
It would mark the second Super Bowl held in the Falcons’ Mercedes-Benz Stadium, following the 2019 game that saw the New England Patriots edge the Los Angeles Rams 13-3. The city also hosted two Super Bowls at the Falcons’ previous home, the Georgia Dome.
Mercedes-Benz Stadium was recently awarded the 2031 Final Four, its first chance to hold that event after its turn in 2020 was wiped out by the COVID-19 pandemic. The stadium will be home to the 2025 College Football Playoff national championship game and eight matches at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, including one semifinal.
The Super Bowl for the current season is slated for New Orleans. California has the next two: The San Francisco 49ers’ Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara hosts in February 2026 and the Los Angeles Rams and Chargers’ SoFi Stadium in Inglewood gets its second turn in five years in February 2027.
