Mark your calendars, folks, because Super Bowl LXII officially has a date! February 13, 2028, is when it all goes down in Atlanta, with Mercedes-Benz Stadium officials confirming the big news just this Friday on their social accounts.

Atlanta’s Track Record Speaks Volumes

This isn’t some random pick, either. We’ve known since 2024 that Atlanta was getting the Super Bowl for the fourth time in its history. Think about that: *fourth time*! They’ve hosted before in ’93 and ’99 at the old Georgia Dome, and then again in 2019 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Clearly, the NFL trusts this city to put on a show.

Big Games Are the Norm for Mercedes-Benz Stadium

And honestly, why wouldn’t they? Atlanta’s been absolutely crushing it with big events. Just last week, they wrapped up hosting the 2026 FIFA World Cup semifinal, plus seven other matches. City leaders were just celebrating how successful that whole run was. It’s like they’ve got the Midas touch for major sporting events. Beyond the Super Bowl, Mercedes-Benz Stadium is also locked in for the 2031 NCAA Men’s Final Four and keeps the SEC Championship Game through its current contract all the way to 2036. That’s a stacked calendar!

So, while February 2028 feels a long way off, Atlanta is already lining up for another massive spectacle. Get ready, because if their track record is anything to go by, Super Bowl LXII is going to be unforgettable. The city just keeps proving it’s the place to be for the biggest games!
