Yes, Australia is among the countries the NFL is scouting to host future games
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Australia is among the countries the NFL is scouting as potential hosts for regular-season games for the 2025 season and beyond.
Peter O’Reilly, the NFL’s head of international affairs, said Tuesday at the league’s spring meetings that Australia is among the markets being discussed. The league recently announced an NFL Academy will open in September on the Gold Coast in Australia.
“Australia is among a set, and it’s not a small set of markets, that we’re looking at,” O’Reilly said.
O’Reilly noted Australia has a strong NFL fan base, media partners and that both the Philadelphia Eagles and Los Angeles Rams have global market rights there.
He updated NFL owners on the countries league officials are looking at as potential hosts. The NFL announced in February before the Super Bowl that the 2025 season’s international slate of games will feature a game at Real Madrid’s iconic Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.
