The Super Bowl looks like it might be coming to the Volunteer State in the near future. According to a statement from Dan Patrick on Monday, the 2030 Super Bowl is heading to Nashville, TN. The game will be played in the soon-to-be-opened, new-and-improved Nissan Stadium.
“The 2030 Super Bowl, I was informed by a source on Saturday, that it is signed and ready to go, in his opinion, that Nashville is getting the 2030 Super Bowl,” Patrick said on his show, The Dan Patrick Show. “I haven’t seen any reports on this. And if there is a report on it, I’ll acknowledge that, but this is what I was told on Saturday. Nashville is getting the 2030 Super Bowl, Vegas is getting the 2029 Super Bowl. 2027, Los Angeles, and then it’s Atlanta in 2028. But this is what I was told over the weekend. Nashville will get the 2030 Super Bowl. They’ve got a new stadium coming in, that always helps.”
The Super Bowl has never been held in the state of Tennessee. It’s seen plenty of appearances with the Volunteer State’s southeastern neighbors, such as Georgia, Florida, and Louisiana, but it’s never been in Tennessee.
While Patrick’s statement has not been confirmed by the NFL or by the city of Nashville, it makes all the sense in the world for the Music City to be in line to host in the near future, whether it be in 2030 like Patrick said or sometime later. The Titans’ new Nissan Stadium will be a spectacle and is currently being built right next to the old/current Nissan Stadium.
According to the Titans, the new stadium reached 75% completion at the end of March 2026. The official website states that an average of 2,000 workers a day have been making progress on the new stadium. The layout is approximately 2.1 million square feet and is reportedly on track to be opened for the Titans’ 2027 season, according tot the NFL. The project first broke ground in February 2024.

The new-and-improved Nissan Stadium will likely hold several non-NFL major sporting events in the future, including the College Football Playoffs, the NCAA Tournament, college football bowl games, WWE WrestleMania, UFC stadium shows, and many more. The Super Bowl seems almost definitive in projections.
Perhaps a former Tennessee Volunteer will be on one of the rosters playing in the Super Bowl when it comes to Nashville. We’ll just have to wait and see. This past Super Bowl saw both Joshua Dobbs (Patriots) and Velus Jones Jr. (Seahawks) rostered for the big game.
🚨 Per Dan’s source, the 2030 Super Bowl will be held in Nashville, TN!
