The NFL doesn’t hand out the Super Bowl host site to just any stadium. There are several factors taken into account when the league picks where its championship will be played.
The stadium has to seat at least 70,000, with either a roof or a gameday temperature above 50 degrees. It needs to have space for pregame entertainment and the interactive theme park. It needs to have enough hotels around the area to seat around 35 percent of the stadium capacity.
There’s many more requirements as well, but the point is, it’s not easy to become the host site.
Super Bowl 56 was hosted in Los Angeles at SoFi Stadium. Where will the next several Super Bowls be hosted? Here’s a look.
