The National Football League (NFL) has announced the schedule and teams for the 2025 International Games that will be played in São Paulo, Brazil, and across Europe in Dublin, Ireland; London, England; Berlin, Germany; and Madrid, Spain.
On Sunday 28 September, the Pittsburgh Steelers will face the Minnesota Vikings at Croke Park in Dublin, in Ireland’s first-ever regular season NFL game. The Vikings will then travel to London to play the Cleveland Browns at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium – the only purpose-built NFL stadium outside of the US – on Sunday 5 October, which sees the team play two consecutive international games. The New York Jets will take on the Denver Broncos on Sunday 12 October, also at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The third and final game in London will feature the Jacksonville Jaguars against the Los Angeles Rams at Wembley Stadium on Sunday 19 October.
For the first time in Berlin, Germany, the Indianapolis Colts will host the Atlanta Falcons at the Olympic Stadium Berlin on Sunday 9 November. The 2025 Berlin game is part of the NFL’s commitment to playing regular season games across Germany and will be the fifth regular season game in the market, with the league having previously played games in Munich and Frankfurt.
The 2025 international slate will culminate in Madrid, Spain on Sunday 16 November with the Miami Dolphins taking on the Washington Commanders at the Bernabéu Stadium, home of Real Madrid, in the league’s first-ever regular season game in Spain.
The Los Angeles Chargers will kick off the 2025 International Games on week one of the regular season on 5 September in São Paulo, Brazil at Corinthians Arena against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Peter O’Reilly, NFL Executive Vice President, Club Business, Major Events & International, said: “The 2025 NFL season will see seven regular season games played outside of the US – the most ever regular season international games to date, including historic first games in iconic venues in Berlin, Dublin and Madrid. The 2025 International Games schedule showcases an exciting selection of matchups featuring major NFL stars, bringing our game directly to fans around the world, and underscores our collective commitment to global growth as we continue our journey to becoming a truly global sport.”
In addition to the games scheduled for Europe in 2025, the NFL has further expanded its international series with Melbourne announced to host the first-ever regular season game in Australia in 2026. The game will be played at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) with the Los Angeles Rams as the designated team. Melbourne has also been confirmed to host regular season games on a multiyear commitment.
