The NFL's premiere championship game officially has host sites through 2024.
League owners on Wednesday formally approved a proposal to award Super Bowl LVII to Arizona in 2023 and Super Bowl LVIII to New Orleans in 2024, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reported.
The voting, which was done by secret ballot, was the final hurdle in a new process introduced last year to name Super Bowl sites. The previous course of action required interested cities to bid for the right to host the event. With the change, the NFL now approaches a prospective bidder to put together a proposal to host the Super Bowl, which in this case was Phoenix and New Orleans.
The two cities have extensive experience in playing host to one of the top-watched events in the league.
Arizona has previously hosted three Super Bowls, including two at the University of Phoenix Stadium and one at Sun Devil Stadium in Tempe.
New Orleans will host its 11th Super Bowl. The Big Easy has previously been home for seven games played at the Superdome and three matchups at Tulane Stadium.
The next four Super Bowls are set to be played in Atlanta, Miami, Tampa Bay and Los Angeles ahead of Phoenix and New Orleans.
