The Pro Bowl is coming back to Orlando. The NFL announced today that the all-stars of the AFC and NFC conferences will again face off at Camping World stadium on Sunday, Jan. 28, 2018.

Of course, Mayor Buddy Dyer was thrilled:

Thrilled that @NFL Pro Bowl will return to @CWStadium in '18. This solidifies our reputation as one of the nation's top sports destinations.

The game does have an incredible impact on the Orlando area. More than 60,000 fans showed up to last year's game. Additionally, in 2017, Airbnb hosts earned a combined $677,000 in Orlando during Pro Bowl weekend, according to the Orlando Sentinel.

The game will be aired on both broadcast and cable networks, a first for the industry, as well as streamed live on the ESPN app.

Tickets for the Pro Bowl game will go on sale in the fall. Those interested in purchasing tickets may register for pre-sale opportunities.
