Top of the morning to you, fans of the Pittsburgh Steelers and Minnesota Vikings are going across the Atlantic Ocean to make some history this upcoming NFL season.
The first-ever regular season NFL game in Dublin, Ireland is at Croke Park. The contest will take place Week 4 on Sept. 28 and broadcast on the NFL Network.
The home-team Steelers are connected to the “Emerald Isle” through the franchise’s ownership in the Rooney family. The Steelers were awarded rights to expand their branding for the Republic of Ireland & Northern Ireland, as part of the NFL’s Global Markets Program, in May 2023.
The NFL is playing a record seven international games in 2025 – three in England, and one in Germany, Spain (also a first-time venture), Ireland and Brazil.
