The news is now official.
Nashville will host Super Bowl LXIV in February 2030 after NFL owners approved the designation by a unanimous 32-0 vote Tuesday at league meetings in Orlando.
Even before construction began on the Titans’ new stadium — a $2.2 billion structure scheduled to open in Feb. 2027 — team and city officials had said securing events like the Super Bowl was a primary goal.
It was clear Music City was on track to host the event when, in November, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell called Nashville “a Super Bowl worthy-city,” basing part of his enthusiasm on the success of the 2019 NFL Draft held here. Goodell referenced the draft again Tuesday, recalling when Nashville drew more than 600,000 fans — a record at the time — over three days.
"The 2019 NFL Draft in Nashville was one of the greatest fan events in our history,” Goodell says in a release.
“Super Bowl LXIV at the new stadium is the next step in this remarkable football journey. The vision of Amy Adams Strunk and the Tennessee Titans helped make this moment possible. With great partners at the Nashville Convention & Visitors Corp and Tennessee Titans, we can’t wait to put on an unforgettable show in 2030.”

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce estimated that the local economic impact of the 2024 Super Bowl in Las Vegas was $1 billion — fueled by direct spending by visitors and residents, indirect spending at local businesses, employment and tax revenue. Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans generated an estimated $1.25 billion in total economic output across the state in 2025, a Louisiana State University study found. That figure didn’t include a slew of other monetary impacts, from the bonuses players received to the millions shelled out by advertisers.
A study by the Bay Area Host Committee looking ahead to the 2026 Super Bowl, which was played in Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif., estimated that the big game would generate between $370 million and $630 million in earnings across the area, largely fueled by more than 90,000 visitors anticipated to come from outside the Bay Area.
In addition to direct spending from those visitors on a range of attractions and services, the committee’s calculation included money the teams playing in the game were expected to spend on housing, feeding and transporting players and staff, as well as the logistical costs associated with the game and related events.
“Hosting the Super Bowl is a defining moment for Nashville and Tennessee and reflects years of work to build Music City into a globally recognized destination for music, entertainment, and live events,” says Deana Ivey, Nashville Convention & Visitors Corp president & CEO, in a release.
The 2027 Super Bowl will be played in Los Angeles, the 2028 Super Bowl in Atlanta and the 2029 Super Bowl in Las Vegas.
The new Nissan Stadium, construction on which is now more than 75 percent complete, is scheduled to open in early 2027, and the NFL usually waits at least three years before awarding Super Bowls to such venues.
In addition to the 600,000 fans who attended the 2019 NFL Draft, the event generated $224 million in economic impact.
The week of the event will feature NFL Honors, Super Bowl Experience, Super Bowl Opening Night and community initiatives, including NFL Source, the league's procurement program for local and underrepresented businesses.
“We are thrilled that the new Nissan Stadium will host Nashville’s first Super Bowl in 2030,” Tennessee Titans controlling owner Amy Adams Strunk says in a release. “This is an exciting moment for our city and our entire state. We cannot wait for our community to experience an event of this magnitude and for the world to see the energy, hospitality, and culture that make our city so special on a global stage.”
