Everything we get asked most about the 2026 season, in one place — bookmark this if you only need one page.
How many games are in the 2026 NFL International Series?
Nine regular-season games, spread across four continents and seven countries — the largest international slate the NFL has ever played. See the full schedule for every date and kickoff time.
Which cities and countries are hosting NFL games in 2026?
Melbourne (Australia), Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), London (England — two games, at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and Wembley Stadium), Paris (France), Madrid (Spain), Munich (Germany), and Mexico City (Mexico).
Is 2026 the first time the NFL has played a game in Australia?
Yes — the Melbourne game is the first regular-season NFL game ever played in the Southern Hemisphere. Read our full preview of that game.
When do tickets go on sale for the 2026 International Series?
Each game runs its own official presale — usually through an NFL or team membership programme — before general public sale opens. Exact windows vary by game; see our tickets page and buying guide for the details and current price ranges.
What time do the international games kick off?
It depends on the host city's time zone relative to the US broadcast windows — kickoffs range from mid-morning to early evening local time. The schedule page converts every kickoff into your own device's time zone automatically, so you never have to do the math yourself.
What's the difference between the two London games?
London hosts two separate games at two different stadiums in 2026: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, built with an NFL-spec retractable natural pitch specifically to host games like these, and the larger Wembley Stadium — the very venue that hosted the first-ever International Series game back in 2007.
How can I watch the games if I'm not attending in person?
International games are broadcast on the NFL's usual US network partners and are also available via streaming in most countries, alongside local broadcast deals in each host nation. Check your local NFL broadcast partner or NFL+ for exact availability.
Can I predict the score and win anything on this site?
Yes — the Predictions page lets you pick the score, winner and first touchdown scorer for every game and climb a live leaderboard, free, with no account needed beyond a nickname.
