The NFL announced on Wednesday that the Super Bowl will return to SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles in February 2027. This decision comes after the stadium successfully hosted Super Bowl 56 in 2022, where the Los Angeles Rams won against the Cincinnati Bengals. SoFi Stadium, a state-of-the-art facility in Inglewood that opened in September 2020, received praise for its hosting capabilities.
Commissioner Roger Goodell expressed excitement about bringing the Super Bowl back to Los Angeles for the second time in five years. The 2022 Super Bowl generated significant economic impact for Los Angeles County, contributing between $234.3 million and $477.5 million. The event featured a memorable halftime show with local hip-hop legends Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre, attracting a television audience of about 101 million viewers.
The announcement reflects the NFL’s confidence in SoFi Stadium and the collaborative efforts of the Los Angeles Rams, the Los Angeles Host Committee, and other partners. The league anticipates that Super Bowl 61 will be an unforgettable event, celebrating Los Angeles as a hub for sports, entertainment, and culture. SoFi Stadium and Rams owner Stanley Kroenke expressed gratitude for the opportunity to host the Super Bowl once again and the honor of bringing the prestigious event back to Los Angeles.
