Nashville is expected to be awarded its debut Super Bowl when NFL owners convene on Tuesday, according ​to multiple reports.

The game would be ‌played in the under-construction new stadium of the Tennessee Titans and would be the first Super Bowl played in the city. Super Bowl ‌LXIV ​is scheduled for February ⁠2030.

NFL owners are ⁠meeting in Orlando on Tuesday and Wednesday. A formal vote and approval of Nashville as the host city is expected. ​The Music City turned out fans in droves for the 2019 NFL ⁠Draft, setting what was ⁠then an attendance record for ​the event.

The new Nissan Stadium is a $2.1 ​billion, fully enclosed, 60,000-seat venue on the ‌Cumberland River. The retractable-roof structure is scheduled to open by February 2027.

Teams constructing new stadiums have frequently been under ⁠consideration for hosting the Super Bowl, with Detroit, East Rutherford, N.J., and Minneapolis cracking the typical ⁠warm-weather ‌city rotation in recent years.

In ⁠February 2027, Los Angeles’ SoFi Stadium ​is ‌hosting the Super Bowl for ​the second ⁠time. In March, the NFL announced Las Vegas as the host city in 2029 for the second time since Allegiant Stadium was constructed. Atlanta hosts in 2028.
