Super Bowl In Detroit




Metro Detroit is currently in the midst of a $17 billion dollar revitalization. In just under two years the area has added two major museums, a new downtown baseball stadium, a 117-acre mega mall and two casinos. Super Bowl XL will be a big coming out party for a new and exciting Detroit.
The $300 million Ford Field, which opened in 2002, is carved into the famous Hudson's warehouse and offers a spectacular view of downtown Detroit through its steel, glass and brick structure. The stadium is located in our city's "Foxtown" entertainment district adjacent to Comerica Park, the home of the Detroit Tigers. The 1.3 million square foot facility has 65,000 seats and 113 luxury suites and promises the best site lines of any NFL stadium.
With over 31,000 hotel rooms in the Detroit metro area, ample indoor space at Cobo Conference/Exhibition Center and the Michigan State Fairgrounds, Detroit will not only exceed expectations but provide first class options for the NFL key events and VIP guests.
Detroit's is experienced in handling large-scale events. We have been host to such events as the 1982 Super Bowl XVI at the Pontiac Silverdome, back to back Stanley Cup hockey victories with parades of over one million sports fans, 1994 World Cup Games, and the annual North American Auto Show that welcomes 6,000 international journalists.
Led by Roger Penske, our Detroit Metro Host Committee has promised the largest budget to date of $10 million to support the execution of Super Bowl XL and insure a positive guest experience for the fans, media, and corporate clients.
