NFL sets Super Bowl LXII date in Atlanta
The NFL officially announced that Super Bowl LXII will be played on February 13, 2028, at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, marking the city’s fourth hosting of the event. Atlanta’s selection followed strong support from Falcons owner Arthur Blank and noted hospitality and sports culture that make it an ideal host. The decision effectively ends talk of an 18-game regular season for 2027, though the league has not ruled out such a schedule for future seasons. The lead-up to the game will include events like NFL Honors and the Super Bowl Experience, with OnLocation offering premium hospitality packages. The date also means the 2027 Super Bowl will land on Presidents Day weekend, while 2028’s timing shifts the post-Super Bowl period relative to the holiday. Overall, Atlanta is positioned to deliver a high-profile, fan-centric experience around the February showcase.
