The new logo contains distinctive elements of the City of Los Angeles, where the big game returns for the first time since 1993.
The Los Angeles Sports & Entertainment Commission revealed on Tuesday the official logo of Super Bowl LVI, which will be played next year in SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles.
In the logo, you can see some minor changes from the most recent editions, particularly Super Bowl LI to date.
In the new edition, the Lombardi Trophy is placed clearly behind the Roman numerals, which helps to avoid confusion about the edition of the Super Bowl ongoing, in the past logo Super Bowl LV, some people complained on social media that placing the iconic trophy between the ‘L’ and ‘V’ made it seem like it was the edit LIFE, when in effect, it was the edition LV.
Additionally, within the Roman numerals, iconic elements of the Californian city can be distinguished, from warm color tones to palm tree figures.

In addition, the logo of the organizing committee of Super Bowl LVI of the city of Los Angeles was presented.
El SoFi Stadium, where the game will be played, is home to Los Angeles Rams Y Los Angeles Chargers, one of two properties that are shared between teams of the NFL, next to MetLife Stadium of the New York Giants Y New York Jets. The stadium was used for NFL for the first time in the past regular season.
Originally, the plan was that SoFi Stadium received the past Super Bowl LV; but construction delays forced a search for an alternate headquarters, designating Tampa as headquarters.
The Super Bowl will return to Los Angeles for the first time since 1993.
As to Super Bowls future, two of the next three are assigned headquarters. El Super Bowl LVII (to be played in early 2023) will be played at State Farm Stadium, Glendale, Arizona. The great game was played for the last time in that building in the edition XLIX.
El Super Bowl LVIII It will be played in early 2024. Originally, it had been assigned to the city of New Orleans, but timing conflicts with the Mardi Gras parade forced the NFL to change headquarters, and there is still no official decision. The city of Las Vegas has offered the new Allegiant Stadium for the encounter, but has not been assigned yet.
El Super Bowl LIX (to be played in 2025), yes it will take place at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, New Orleans, Louisiana, postponing the game of a previous year. The Super Bowl visited that property for the last time in the edition XLVII.
