The NFL will travel the world during the 2025-26 season. The league unveiled its complete international schedule on Tuesday, finalizing matchups for seven games that will take place in five different countries including Ireland, England, Germany, Spain and Brazil. The games are part of the NFL’s long-term commitment to global expansion and driving year-round engagement in international markets. “The 2025 NFL season will see seven regular season games played outside of the U.S. — the most ever regular season international games to date, including historic first games in iconic venues in Berlin, Dublin and Madrid,” said NFL Executive Vice President, Club Business, Major Events & International Peter O’Reilly. “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.” The Los Angeles Chargers will kick off the 2025 International slate on Sept. 5 in São Paulo, Brazil at Corinthians Arena. The opponent for this game will be announced along with the rest of the regular season schedule on Wednesday. The European slate will begin on Sunday, Sept. 28 when the Pittsburgh Steelers face the Minnesota Vikings at Croke Park in Dublin, Ireland , in the country’s first-ever regular season NFL game. One week later, the Vikings will travel to London to play the Cleveland Browns at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday, Oct. 5. It will be the 40th regular season game to be played in England’s capital. The New York Jets will then take on the Denver Broncos on Sunday, Oct. 12, 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, Oct. 19. This will be the 14th game in the capital for the Jaguars, as part of the team’s multi-year commitment to playing games in the U.K. For the first time in Berlin , the Indianapolis Colts will host the Atlanta Falcons at the Olympic Stadium Berlin on Sunday, Nov. 9. It will be the fifth regular season game in Germany, with the league having previously played games in Munich and Frankfurt. The 2025 international slate will culminate in Madrid on Sunday, Nov.16 with the Miami Dolphins taking on the Washington Commanders at the Bernabéu Stadium, home of Real Madrid C.F. , in the league’s first-ever regular season game in Spain.
