Super Bowl XLII, Glendale, Ariz. -- Feb. 3, 2008 (FOX)
Super Bowl XLII will be played in a new stadium that is currently under construction in Glendale, Ariz. The site of the 2008 Super Bowl was decided at the owners' meetings in Chicago on Oct. 29-30, 2003.
Super Bowl XLIII, Tampa, Fla. -- Feb. 1, 2009 (NBC)
Super Bowl XLIII will be the fourth Super Bowl in Tampa, and the first one since 2001, when the Baltimore Ravens defeated the New York Giants, 34-7, in Super Bowl XXXV. The first Super Bowl in Tampa was held in 1984, when the Los Angeles Raiders beat the Washington Redskins, 38-9, in Super Bowl XVIII.
Super Bowl XLIV, South Florida -- TBA, 2010 (CBS)
The Super Bowl will return to the Miami area in 2010, when it will surpass New Orleans for the most Super Bowls. It will be the fifth Super Bowl played at Dolphins Stadium.

As the Super Bowl is poised to return to sunny South Florida for the ninth time in 2007, the game and the festivities surrounding it will reflect its storied past in the locale but also show America how the area has grown since its last Super Bowl in 1999.
South Florida, of course, has a proud history of hosting sensational Super Bowl matchups.
There was Super Bowl III, in which Joe Namath and the AFL New York Jets shocked the Baltimore Colts. Or Super Bowl XXIII, in which San Francisco 49ers quarterback Joe Montana connected with John Taylor for the winning, come-from-behind, last-minute touchdown against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Those kinds of moments are exhibitive of the theme of the 2006 NFL season -- "One Game. One Dream." "One Game" is the game of football itself, and the game that each team plays each week. As the NFL playoffs beckon, it truly is one game that keeps the "Dream" alive -- Super Bowl XLI. When its teams and their fans arrive for the game, they will see the excitement that bubbles throughout the region.
South Florida, which consists of Palm Beach, Broward and Miami-Dade Counties, has undergone a transformation since Super Bowl XXXIII in 1999. In the midst of a local urban renaissance, the region has added thousands of new tourist attractions to its already extensive list.
Parrot Jungle Island on Watson Island in Miami, for instance, has been a hit with thousands of visitors since it opened in 2003. The $47 million theme park is conveniently located in the heart of Miami between downtown and South Beach.
Another well-known attraction is the Miami Beach Convention Center, which spans four city blocks in Miami Beach. Adjacent to the fun and excitement of the Art Deco and South Beach districts, the center -- recognized for its unusual architecture -- is just a short walk to one of America's most spectacular beaches.
The Greater Miami region alone is home to more than 50 new hotels and 30 new golf courses, as well as a new performing arts center set to open in October of this year that has already sparked a flurry of development in revitalized downtown Miami.
"South Florida sells itself," says former Miami Dolphins President Eddie Jones. "We've got everything from sports and fashion to nightlife and tourism."
In keeping with the NFL's 2006 theme, South Florida remains a dream destination for many fans and visitors.
