New competition from L.A. for Atlanta’s Super Bowl bid

Atlanta’s bid group hopes to bring the Super Bowl to the new Mercedes-Benz Stadium in February 2019. But if that doesn’t work out, the competition just got a lot tougher for the following year.

Los Angeles is joining the bidding to host the Super Bowl in February 2020 and February 2021, The Los Angeles Times is reporting.

Atlanta submitted a preliminary bid late last year for the 2019 and 2020 Super Bowls. Its competition remains the same as before for the 2019 game — Miami, New Orleans and Tampa — but now add a new Los Angeles stadium to the bidding for the 2020 game.
