The NFL owners will vote today to add another trip to Los Angeles in the Super Bowl rotation. This game will be LXI and played in early 2027.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter was the first to report the news. Glistening SoFi Stadium, the most expensive in the NFL, will be the site. The stadium hosted the Super Bowl two years ago when the Rams beat the Bengals to keep the Lombardi Trophy in So Cal.

So the next four years are set with Super Bowl sites. The big game for this season is set for Feb. 11 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. Like SoFi Stadium, Allegiant is one of the newest and most expensive in the league.

The Big Easy plays host to Super Bowl LIX. That game is Feb. 9, 2025 at the Superdome in New Orleans. Meanwhile, Super Bowl LX will be Feb. 8, 2026, at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif.

Albert Breer, who covers the NFL for Sports Illustrated, said the NFL started talking about the idea of another Los Angeles gamein the spring. The game would be in tandem with the 2026 game, which is in Northern California. The biggest game in football will also be in the middle of an impressive slate of sporting events for Los Angeles. The first is the World Cup in 2026. Then comes the Super Bowl. And in 2028, Los Angeles will welcome the world for the Summer Olympics.

Having the game in LA in 2027 also will honor the 60th anniversary of the city hosting the first-ever Super Bowl.

Earlier this year, the Palm Beach Post reported that Miami also wanted to vie for the 2027 game. Hard Rock Stadium last hosted the big game in early 2020, weeks before the Covid pandemic began shutting down the world.
