The NFL and On Location have announced a multi-year extension of their global hospitality partnership. This extension will solidify On Location’s standing as official hospitality provider of the NFL through to 2036.
With the extension, premium experiences, hospitality and travel company On Location will continue to offer unrivaled access to all premier NFL events, providing fans with unforgettable experiences at the Super Bowl, NFL Draft, Pro Football Hall of Fame, Pro Bowl Games and Scouting Combine. Additionally, On Location’s rights to sell and market International Series Games has been expanded to include all international markets. Official packages feature premium seating, in-venue and out-of-venue hospitality, player meet and greets, unique behind-the-scenes activities and more.
Paul Caine, president of On Location said: “Our partnership with the NFL was born out of a desire and commitment to give NFL fans one-of-a-kind, memorable experiences on the sport’s biggest stage, the Super Bowl. Now we work together across the full breadth of the NFL’s touchpoints, also including the Pro Bowl Games, Draft, Scouting Combine, and growing International Games. Together, we have reimagined what it means to truly be on location, continually expanding our offering to meet evolving fan demand for a more personalised, curated, premium experience that extends beyond just sitting in a seat watching a game.”
Peter O’Reilly, NFL executive vice president of club business, major events, and international, added: “Since being founded at the NFL, the growth of On Location is truly impressive, and it is now widely regarded as the leader in premium experiences for many of the world’s largest sporting events,” said Peter O’Reilly, NFL Executive Vice President of Club Business, Major Events, and International. “Delivering a world-class experience for our fans is so core to what we do at the NFL. With On Location being acquired by TKO, the impact of our partnership will only be enhanced, giving our fans access and experiences they will never forget. We look forward to working with them around our biggest events for years to come.”
The extension follows a record-breaking Super Bowl earlier this year, which surpassed previous hospitality sales highs, and continued global growth and expansion. This included a record-high number of hospitality packages sold for the first-ever International game held in Brazil, and an NFL Draft that set an attendance record as 775,000 fans experienced the three-day event in Detroit.
The NFL founded On Location before selling equity to RedBird Capital Partners, Bruin Capital and the Carlyle Group in 2015. In 2020, On Location was acquired by Endeavor, fueling its global growth and continually enhancing the premium fan experience around the biggest sporting events in the world, including the Super Bowl, Olympic and Paralympic Games (Paris 2024, Milano Cortina 2026, and LA 2028), FIFA World Cup 26, WrestleMania, Daytona 500 and Final Four. Endeavor recently announced that it has reached an agreement with TKO Group Holdings, Inc. for TKO to acquire On Location, in a transaction expected to be completed in the first half of 2025.
