Vegas, Baby! Sin City To Host The 2027 College Football Playoff National Championship Game

Las Vegas will host the 2027 College Football Playoff national championship game.

The CFP made the announcement Friday, saying the title game will be played Monday, Jan. 25, 2027, at Allegiant Stadium.

The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority celebrated the news by releasing a video of Strip headliner Shin Lim performing an illusion at the iconic Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas sign. Lim changed the face of the sign to revel a new message welcoming the College Football Playoff National Championship to Las Vegas.

"Las Vegas has shown the world they have amazing venues and boundless energy to host an event like the College Football Playoff national championship in spectacular fashion," said Rich Clark, executive director of the CFP.

"Sin City" will become the third area in the Pacific time zone to host the title game, joining the Bay Area 2019 and Los Angeles 2023.
