Las Vegas is set to host the 2027 College Football Playoff national championship game.
The game is scheduled to be played Jan. 25, 2027, at Allegiant Stadium, according to a person with knowledge of the situation.
Last week, the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority approved a measure that opened up the possibility for the city to hold the game, earmarking up to $40 million to facilitate hosting the championship. The millions of dollars would go toward various aspects of hosting the title game, including game management, event goods and services, event permits, team practice sites, marketing and advertising, and police and first responders.
The approved amount includes an initial $25 million commitment, with up to $15 million available for contingencies.
