The NFL Scouting Combine will remain in Indianapolis

The NFL Scouting Combine will remain in Indianapolis through at least 2026, thanks to a new agreement

The NFL announced on Thursday that the annual scouting combine will not be moving for at least two more years.

The combine will remain in Indianapolis through the 2026 event, which typically takes place in the week spanning the end of February and the beginning of March. The 2025 event kicks off on February 27th in downtown Indianapolis, where it has been held since 1987.

“Indianapolis is uniquely designed and built to host an event as complex as the NFL Combine,” Colts chief operating officer Pete Ward said in a statement. “Efficiently moving prospects, team owners, coaching staff, medical personnel, and national media is seamlessly done in Indy, and the Colts are proud to be part of the team keeping the event in our city.”

There has been considerable talk in recent years of moving the combine out of Indianapolis despite its incredible popularity and convenience for NFL teams and growing legions of fans who trek to Lucas Oil Stadium and the Indiana Convention Center every year.
