LAS VEGAS, Nev. – The Raiders haven’t even started playing in Las Vegas as their stadium is still under construction.
But the franchise is already taking the necessary steps to convince the NFL to let them host a Super Bowl. According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the Raiders have added $40 million to their budget of their $1.8 billion stadium.
They will use that money to build 20 new suites along with a 26,000 square foot field-level club area. They want to host Super Bowl LIX in 2025 after the NFL announced last week that Arizona will host Super Bowl LVII in 2023 and New Orleans will be the host of Super Bowl LVIII in 2024.
Las Vegas will likely receive the bid to host either Super Bowl LIX or Super Bowl LX in 2020.
