Full story

The NFL is set to make it’s first-ever regular season appearance in Germany’s largest city, Berlin, in 2025. The game, which will be the first of three in Berlin in the next five seasons, will be played at the historic Olympic Stadium.

The league has played four games in Germany since 2022, two in Munich and two in Frankfurt, including this season’s matchup between the Carolina Panthers and the New York Giants, but this will be the first in Germany’s capital.

In a press release, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said over the last few seasons the league has built up a following of more than 20 million fans in Germany

“Germany has a rich tradition in American football and the NFL has a long history with the city of Berlin… now we’ll make a historic return to the city playing a regular season game for the first time as we open the next chapter in our relationship,” Goodell said.

That history goes back decades, with the league having played a preseason game in the Olympic Stadium 34 years ago. The historic venue was also home to the Berlin Thunder of NFL Europe from 1990-2007.

So it’s full speed ahead with overseas games, but Deutschland is just part of the plan. Earlier this year, the league announced a return to London with at least two games next season, and has also said they will play in Madrid. The plan is to fill out the other international sites in the coming months.

There is no word on the teams that will be taking those flights across the pond, but the full NFL schedule — with matchups and dates — is typically released in May.
