The National Football League today announced that the Indianapolis Colts will play as the designated team in the first-ever regular-season game in Berlin, as part of the 2025 International Games.

The 2025 NFL Berlin game will be played at the Olympic Stadium as part of a multiyear commitment to playing games in the sports metropolis. The NFL played five American Bowl games at the Olympic Stadium between 1990 and 1994, and it was also home to NFL Europe’s Berlin Thunder from 2003-07.

“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.”
