Originally published by Chron Sports.

The NFL announced Thursday that the official date for Super Bowl LI at NRG Stadium will be Feb. 5, 2017.

“We are excited to now know the date, and the Houston Super Bowl LI host committee is proud and eager to lock in the countdown to kickoff,” host committee chairman Ric Campo said in a release. “It’s a tremendous opportunity to showcase Houston as the forward-looking, global city that it is, as well as come together as a community and have a great time.”

“We are thankful our good friend Bob McNair and the other NFL owners are returning the Super Bowl to the best venue in America,” said host committee honorary chairman James A. Baker III. “We plan to return that favor by hosting a celebration with our special Houston flair, and we are already deep into the preparation for it.”

Houston was awarded Super Bowl LI on May 21, 2013.
