The National Football League officially confirmed on Tuesday that Super Bowl 2030 will be held in Nashville, a first in the city's history.
NFL team owners voted in favor of Nashville's bid during the league's spring meetings, allowing the future home of the Tennessee Titans to host the prestigious event.
The game will be played at the new Nissan Stadium, currently under construction.
A state-of-the-art $2.1 billion stadium
The Titans' future domed stadium is a colossal project valued at approximately $2.1 billion.
Construction is expected to be completed in February 2030 after nearly three years of work.
The new arena will be located directly across from the Titans' current stadium.
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell praised the significance of this announcement for Nashville.
“This is a major milestone in the remarkable history of football in Nashville.”
Goodell also highlighted the city's energy and growing popularity in the American sports landscape.
The Titans celebrate a historic announcement
Titans majority owner Amy Adams Strunk said the organization was extremely proud to secure the event.
She also thanked the NFL and local tourism officials for their collaboration on this major project.
According to her, the Super Bowl will allow the whole world to discover the culture, musical atmosphere, and hospitality for which Nashville is renowned.
Major public funding
Funding for the new stadium has been the subject of much discussion since its approval in 2022.
The project includes, notably:
- $760 million from Nashville Sports Authority bonds
- $500 million funded by the State of Tennessee
This public funding, totaling approximately $1.2 billion, represented one of the largest public investments ever made in NFL infrastructure.
Upcoming Super Bowls Already Confirmed
Before the 2030 edition in Nashville, the next Super Bowls will take place in the following cities:
- Inglewood
- Atlanta

The NFL thus continues to focus on major markets and state-of-the-art facilities to host its biggest annual event.
