Levi's Stadium will play host to the 2019 College Football Playoff National Championship, it was announced on Wednesday.

Atlanta will host the game in 2018 and New Orleans will host the game in 2020.

The CFP management committee made the decision this morning in Chicago, culminating a 10-month process. Nine communities participated in the bid process including Atlanta, the Bay Area, Charlotte, Detroit, Houston, Minnesota, New Orleans, San Antonio and South Florida.

“It is an exciting day for the College Football Playoff,” said Bill Hancock, executive director of the CFP.
