Tennessee Governor Seeks 2029 Super Bowl in Nashville

Tennessee Governor Bill Lee has formally expressed interest in bringing the Super Bowl to Nashville, specifically targeting Super Bowl LXIII in February 2029, in a letter to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. Lee highlighted Nashville's proven capability to host large-scale events and mentioned the ongoing construction of the new $2.1 billion Nissan Stadium, which is set to open for the Titans' 2027 season. He emphasized the city's accessibility and vibrant culture as key attractions for NFL fans. The upcoming Super Bowl locations have already been assigned to San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Atlanta, making 2029 the earliest opportunity for Nashville. With substantial public investment in the new stadium, the city is well-positioned to host the event, although Las Vegas is also a competitor for the same year. Local support from organizations like the Nashville Sports Council further bolsters the bid for the Super Bowl.
