Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee has submitted a “letter of interest” expressing his desire to host the 2029 Super Bowl at the new Nissan Stadium in Nashville.
According to Lee, the “world-class facility will make Tennessee the top destination for the nation’s biggest events—from the Super Bowl to the Final Four & beyond.”
The new Nissan Stadium is on schedule to be complete by 2027—two years before Super Bowl LXIII.
Letter from Lee:
Dear Commissioner Goodell and NFL team,
I am writing in support of efforts for Nashville to be the host city for the next available Super Bowl in 2029. As Tennessee’s capital and a dynamic global hub, the city of Nashville is uniquely positioned to welcome the NFL for a memorable and successful event.
Nashville is an easily accessible, top global destination with a proven track record of hosting safe and seamless large-scale events like the NFL Draft, CMA Fest and the SEC Championship. Football fans will no doubt enjoy Music City’s world-famous honky-tonks, live music, attractions, and restaurants.
The State of Tennessee’s investment in the construction of the new Nissan Stadium reflects our commitment to hosting the world’s most anticipated sporting event. This thoughtfully designed state-of-the-art stadium, which will boast the closest viewing experience in football, is sure to provide an unrivaled experience to players and fans.
