The Indianapolis Colts will be one of the teams to play a 2025 regular-season game in Berlin, the NFL announced Wednesday.
The kickoff time and date, as well as the Colts’ opponent, will be announced when the NFL schedule is announced this spring. The game will be played at Berlin’s Olympic Stadium, which played host to the 1974 and 2006 FIFA World Cups and the 2011 Women’s World Cup.
‘The NFL is making history in Berlin, and the Colts are proud to be part of this landmark event in one of the world’s most historic cities,’ Colts owner and CEO Jim Irsay said in a statement. ‘The NFL has become a global brand, and we’re looking forward to growing American football in Germany and expanding Colts Nation’s footprint around the world. This game also provides a unique opportunity for our local Indiana partners to engage with German businesses, customers and fans this season and in the future.’
The Colts played in London in 2016, losing 30-27 to the Jacksonville Jaguars. In 2023, Indianapolis beat the New England Patriots 10-6 in Frankfort, Germany.
Last week, the NFL announced that the New York Jets, Cleveland Browns and Jacksonville Jaguars would be part of the International Series, each playing one game in London.
