Minnesota Bids for 2028 NFL Draft: A Potential Boost for Twin Cities

Minnesota Sports and Events, along with the Minnesota Vikings and U.S. Bank Stadium, have officially bid to host the 2028 NFL Draft. This move aligns with the leagues rotating host setup, following Pittsburgh in 2026 and Washington, D.C. in 2027. If selected, Minnesota would host its first-ever draft, joining the NFC North division after Chicagos previous events. The potential economic impact is significant, with past drafts drawing hundreds of thousands of visitors and generating millions in economic lift for host cities. Organizers plan to utilize the TCO Performance Center for youth and flag football activities, aiming to replicate the success of recent hosts like Detroit and Green Bay. The leagues decision is forthcoming, and a Minnesota host could bring substantial crowds and business to the Twin Cities next spring.
