This marks the first time the NFL will play a regular-season game in Berlin. It will be played inside Berlin’s Olympic Stadium.
It’s the first time the Colts have been designated as the home team in the NFL International Series. The date, time, and opponent will be announced later this year.
“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,” said Colts owner & CEO Jim Irsay. “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.”
“Germany is an important market for the NFL, with continued growth in fandom and passion for the game,” said NFL Germany general manager Alexander Steinforth. “After four successful international games in-market across Munich and Frankfurt, we’re thrilled to have the Colts as the designated team for our first-ever regular season game in Berlin in 2025 — a city that holds so much football history and is a true testament to the international expansion and growth of the league.”
The Colts have played two international games in franchise history. In 2016, the Colts played the Jaguars in London, and in 2023, they played the Patriots in Frankfurt.
