Super Bowl Locations: Every Host City Since 1967
Where has the Super Bowl been played? A complete list of every Super Bowl host city and stadium since 1967, plus which cities have hosted the most Super Bowls.
Entertainment Correspondent
The Super Bowl has been played in 19 different cities and at numerous stadiums since the first game in 1967. Here is the complete list of every Super Bowl host city, along with analysis of the most popular locations and what it takes to host the world's biggest football game.
Most Frequent Super Bowl Host Cities
Miami and New Orleans have hosted the Super Bowl more than any other city — 11 times each. Miami's combination of warm weather, large hotel inventory, and South Beach entertainment infrastructure makes it a perennial host. New Orleans' unique culture, walkable French Quarter, and the Mercedes-Benz Superdome (now Caesars Superdome) make it another natural choice.
Los Angeles as a Host City
Los Angeles has hosted 8 Super Bowls, leveraging its massive hotel capacity, entertainment industry infrastructure, and near-perfect February weather. The opening of SoFi Stadium in Inglewood gave LA a world-class venue, and the Rams' relocation back to LA reinvigorated interest in NFL football in the market.
Las Vegas Joins the Rotation
Las Vegas hosted its first Super Bowl — Super Bowl LVIII in 2024 — at Allegiant Stadium to enormous success. The combination of Las Vegas's entertainment infrastructure, 24-hour activity, hotel capacity, and Allegiant Stadium's retractable roof made it an ideal host. Las Vegas is expected to be a regular future Super Bowl host.
Cold-Weather and Dome Cities
Several Super Bowls have been held in cold-weather cities with domed stadiums: Minneapolis (Super Bowl LII, 2018), Detroit (Super Bowl XL, 2006), Indianapolis (Super Bowl XLVI, 2012), and Atlanta (Super Bowls XIX, XXVIII, XXXIV, LIII). These cities demonstrate that any city with a sufficient dome can host, regardless of climate.
Future Host Cities
The NFL looks for cities with 30,000+ hotel rooms, strong transportation infrastructure, and state-of-the-art stadium facilities.
