LAS VEGAS — NFL owners voted during their annual league meetings in Phoenix to award the 2029 Super Bowl to Las Vegas. The decision will bring the championship game back to the city for a second time, following Super Bowl LVIII in February 2024.

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement, "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. 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."

The 2029 contest, designated Super Bowl LXIII, will be broadcast by Fox.

Las Vegas Raiders owner Mark Davis said in a statement, "It's a testament to the Raiders, the LVCVA, civic leaders, the community, and the NFL working together as one. Super Bowl LVIII set a high bar, and for Super Bowl LXIII we are committed to raising it even further."

NFL Executive Vice President Peter O'Reilly said, "Clearly, Super Bowl 58 in Las Vegas was a tremendous success. Every element of that, everything that Las Vegas brought to bear, the energy, the size, the scale, the hospitality. That's why Las Vegas is the host of so many premier sports and entertainment events."

Super Bowl LVIII, held in February 2024, was the first Super Bowl staged in a city that had legalized sports betting. Kansas City defeated San Francisco 25-22 in overtime in that game. Most game-week events for the 2024 championship were held near the Las Vegas Strip, with Allegiant Stadium situated within walking distance of the south end of Las Vegas Boulevard.

Las Vegas has served as the home of the Raiders since 2020 and hosted the 2022 NFL Draft. The 2029 Super Bowl follows Atlanta, which is set to host the championship game in 2028.
