The NFL Draft will have a new host venue in 2025 and it’s at one of the most iconic football stadiums in the country.
On Monday, the NFL announced that Green Bay, Wisconsin will host the 2025 NFL Draft. The draft itself will be held at Lambeau Field, home of the Green Bay Packers.
Lambeau Field is the second-oldest stadium in the NFL and has been the site of some of the greatest moments in NFL history such as The Ice Bowl, the Instant Replay Game and the 1996 NFC Championship Game.
The 2024 NFL Draft is going to be held in Detroit. Back in 2015 and 2016 it was held in Chicago. We can only assume it will be held in Minnesota one day so that the entire NFC North gets a turn.

From 1965 to 2014, the NFL Draft was held in New York City. But over the last decade the league has started making the event a traveling show for cities across America to enjoy.
There may be some risks to having the draft in Green Bay though.
Even at the end of April, temperatures can get really, really cold and there has even been snow at that time of year as well on occasion.
Hopefully the NFL has contingency plans for if the weather forecast calls for temperatures that fall too low.
