Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta will host Super Bowl LXII in 2028

The Super Bowl is heading back to Atlanta.

The NFL announced Tuesday during the Fall League meeting that Mercedes-Benz Stadium, home of the Falcons, will host Super Bowl LXII in 2028.

“Known for its hospitality and rich sports and entertainment culture, Atlanta is a world-class venue and a natural fit for Super Bowl 62,” NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement. “Arthur Blank was a transformative figure in the Atlanta community and played a critical role in leading the effort to bring the Super Bowl back to the city. I have been fortunate to witness firsthand how Arthur continues to drive community engagement and economic development in the city.” We look forward to working with him, the Atlanta Falcons, the Atlanta Sports Council and all of our local partners to create an unforgettable experience for fans around the world in 2028.”

The 2028 championship game will mark the fourth Super Bowl in Atlanta and the first since February 2019, when the New England Patriots defeated the Los Angeles Rams 13-3 to win the last Lombardi Trophy of the Tom Brady-Bill Belichick era.

This game was also played at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, which opened in 2017. The other two Atlanta Super Bowls were played at the Georgia Dome (SB XXVIII in January 1994 and SB XXXIV in January 2000).

“It is a great honor for the city of Atlanta and the state of Georgia to be selected to host Super Bowl LXII,” Falcons owner Arthur M. Blank said in a statement. “Thank you to my co-owners for their trust in giving Atlanta this opportunity, and to Commissioner Goodell, Peter O'Reilly and the entire league for their continued leadership in developing the NFL into the greatest sports league in the world.” Mercedes-Benz The Stadium was built to host the largest sporting events in the world, and I know I speak for many when I say we are honored to bring it back to Atlanta in 2028 and build on the success of Super Bowl LIII in 2019 . I look forward to our city and state officials working together as we continue to make Georgia a premier global sports destination.”
