Las Vegas won’t get Super Bowl this week, but city remains 2029 favorite
NEW YORK — The NFL is not expected to vote this week on approving Las Vegas as the host city for Super Bowl 63 in 2029, according to multiple sources.
The league and Las Vegas recently began exclusive negotiations to have the Super Bowl return to Allegiant Stadium. The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority formally submitted the city’s bid. The NFL is reviewing the package, according to a person with knowledge of the situation.
It would be a surprise if Las Vegas ultimately isn’t granted hosting duties in 2029, according to multiple sources. But an official announcement is not expected to happen this week at the NFL owners’ annual fall meetings. The owners will meet again virtually in December.
Las Vegas is expected to become a regular stop for the Super Bowl after successfully hosting for the first time in 2024. The Chiefs defeated the 49ers 25-22 at Super Bowl 58 at Allegiant Stadium.
The Super Bowl will be held at the Levi’s Stadium (Santa Clara, California) in 2026, SoFi Stadium (Inglewood, California) in 2027 and Mercedes-Benz Stadium (Atlanta) in 2028. The NFL has not announced any host sites beyond 2028.
