New Orleans Saints Finalize Long-Term Lease Extension for Caesars Superdome
New Orleans, LA – October 2, 2025
In a significant development for both the New Orleans Saints and the city, team owner Gayle Benson has finalized a long-term lease extension for the Caesars Superdome. The agreement ensures that the Saints will continue to call the Superdome home through at least 2055, solidifying the franchise’s future in New Orleans.
A Historic Agreement
The finalized lease extension spans 10 years, with options for the Saints to renew every five years thereafter, providing stability for the team and the city. This agreement comes after months of negotiations and addresses concerns about the team’s future in New Orleans.
“We are thrilled to continue our partnership with the state of Louisiana and the city of New Orleans,” said Gayle Benson. “This agreement reflects our commitment to the community and our dedication to providing an exceptional experience for our fans.”
Economic Impact and Community Benefits
The lease extension is expected to have a positive economic impact on the region. The Caesars Superdome has been a central hub for major events, including Super Bowls, concerts, and college football championships. By securing the team’s presence in the city, the agreement ensures that New Orleans remains a prime destination for such events.
Additionally, the deal includes provisions for upgrades and improvements to the Superdome, enhancing the fan experience and maintaining the facility’s status as a premier venue in the NFL.
Looking Ahead
With the lease extension finalized, attention now turns to other aspects of the Saints’ operations. The team has expressed interest in bidding for the 2031 Super Bowl, a move that could bring significant economic benefits to the city. However, the ability to submit an official bid was previously hindered by the uncertainty surrounding the lease agreement.
“We are excited about the possibility of hosting the Super Bowl again,” said Saints spokesperson Greg Bensel. “Now that the lease is finalized, we can focus on making New Orleans a contender for future major events.”
A Bright Future for the Saints
The finalized lease extension marks a new chapter for the New Orleans Saints. With a commitment to the city and plans for
future enhancements to the Caesars Superdome, the franchise is poised to continue its legacy in New Orleans for generations to come.
