The Super Bowl will touch down in Las Vegas once again, with the National Football League (NFL) confirming that the Nevada city will host Super Bowl LXIII in 2029 at Allegiant Stadium.
The 65,000-capacity, climate-controlled venue will play host to one the world’s biggest annual sporting events, promising an incredible night of sporting thrills with that extra injection of classic Vegas showmanship. The announcement marks yet another jewel in Las Vegas’s crown, hot off the heels of hosting another successful Formula 1 Grand Prix and Rugby League game all within the last six months.
A press conference in Las Vegas took place after the announcement, featuring remarks from LVCVA Board Member and Chair of the Clark County Commission, Michael Naft, and Las Vegas Raiders Senior Vice President and General Counsel, Justin Carley. Both press conferences featured the debut of a video produced by the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA) that showcases the energy and excitement of the destination hosting Super Bowl LXIII.
Opening with a flyover of the Las Vegas Strip, transitioning into Allegiant Stadium, and culminating on the 50-yard line, the video highlights bold LXIII Roman numerals spanning 32 feet wide and 13 feet 4 inches tall. Surrounded by confetti and pyrotechnics, the installation captures the spirit of celebration and serves as an iconic visual centrepiece in the lead-up to the game, reflecting the scale, spectacle, and global spotlight of Super Bowl week in Las Vegas.
“We’re excited to bring the Super Bowl back to Las Vegas and provide our fans another incredible experience in one of America’s greatest sport and entertainment destinations,” said NFL commissioner Roger Goodell. “Super Bowl LVIII demonstrated the scale, energy and hospitality the city brings to global events, and we look forward to working alongside the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, the Raiders and the community to deliver an even greater experience this time around.”
Super Bowl LXIII will mark the second time the Super Bowl will be held in Las Vegas. The city debuted as a first-time Super Bowl host in 2024, welcoming more than 330,000 visitors and generating an economic impact of more than $1 billion.
“We’re proud the NFL has selected Las Vegas to host Super Bowl LXIII,” said Steve Hill, president and CEO of the LVCVA. “Our first Super Bowl showcased the unique energy and scale only this destination can offer, bringing together world-class sports, entertainment, and hospitality in one place. Las Vegas was built for moments like this, and we look forward to delivering another exceptional experience for fans in 2029.”
“Bringing the Super Bowl back to Southern Nevada is a powerful testament to the success of the 2024 game,” said Michael Naft, Chair of the Clark County Commission. “Super Bowl LVIII was more than a world-class sporting event. It created meaningful opportunities for independent business owners, generated significant economic impact for our local economy, and supported nonprofit partners through the NFL’s Legacy Grant program. Clark County is proud to build on that momentum, and I am eager to ensure that the benefits of hosting the big game are felt by all Nevadans.”
