Pittsburgh Steelers bid to host Super Bowl in 2023

By , Reporter
The Pittsburgh Steelers bid to host the Super Bowl in 2023, with the official vote to be announced in 2018.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have submitted an application to the NFL to host the Super Bowl in 2023.

Heinz Field, the home of the NFL franchise, will be able to host more than 67,000 fans after they complete a renovation.

"We met this morning with local community leaders to provide an update on formally submitting our application to the NFL to bid for Super Bowl LVII in Pittsburgh and Western Pennsylvania," Steelers president Art Rooney II said, according to ESPN.

The NFL has been open to cold-weather Super Bowls, with the Meadowlands hosting the season finale in 2014, while the Minnesota Vikings will host the event in 2018.

The bidding to host the event opens in 2018, with the official vote coming a year later to announce which venue has been successful.
