Some exciting news has hit Sin City just two seasons into the Raiders’ tenure in Las Vegas. Allegiant Stadium is set to host the 2024 Super Bowl, according to a report by Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
New Orleans was originally chosen to host the 2024 Super Bowl but surrendered their hosting duties when the NFL added a 17th regular-season game. In turn, the Super Bowl was pushed back a week. The schedule change interfered with the New Orleans tradition of Mardi Gras. New Orleans will now host the 2025 Super Bowl.

The state-of-the-art Allegiant Stadium is one of the newest stadiums in the NFL and the league is taking advantage of having a multi-billion-dollar center of football facilities. Las Vegas is hosting this year’s Pro Bowl, taking place in February, as well as the 2022 NFL Draft, which is set to take place in April. The city that never sleeps is no stranger to hosting, making it the perfect location for a Super Bowl.
Las Vegas is one of the most well-known cities in the world and hosting Super Bowl LVIII is sure to attract even more tourists and life-long football fans to the Entertainment Capital of the World. Super Bowl LVIII will take place on February 11, 2024.
