Pro Bowl will return to Camping World Stadium in 2019

Orlando will host NFL's annual all-star game for 3rd straight year

ORLANDO, Fla. – The Pro Bowl will be returning to Orlando in 2019.

The NFL on Tuesday announced in a release that Camping World Stadium will once again play host to the league’s annual all-star game, which is played a week before the Super Bowl.

The game will be held Sunday, Jan. 27.

Fans are already excited about the game being held in Orlando again.

"When you think of the warm weather, it brings in the excitement," Pat Scanlon said.

It will be the third year in a row Orlando will host the Pro Bowl, which features the AFC vs. the NFC.

"All of the extra attention that gets brought to the city and more business for the local businesses that can use it, it's great," Simeon Hernandez said.

Camping World Stadium can hold about 60,000 people, and last time the game was in town, in 2018, it nearly sold out.

"Everyone that doesn't live here in Orlando thinks it's all Disney," Jeannie Underwood-Cotner said. "Then to have the Pro Bowl, you'll bring difference people here and get to experience the parts of the city that aren't Disney."

The AFC has won the last two Pro Bowls, including a 24-23 victory this past January.
