Chiefs vs. Chargers: NFL Kicks Off 2025 Season in Brazil
The NFL has confirmed that the Kansas City Chiefs, recent Super Bowl champions, will face the Los Angeles Chargers in the inaugural international game of the 2025 season. This historic match will take place in São Paulo, Brazil, on September 5, 2025.
The match will be played at the Arena Corinthians and will mark the first time the NFL has played an official game on South American soil.
Led by the talented quarterback Patrick Mahomes, the Chiefs will seek a strong start to the season after their recent victory. It will be the first time that Kansas City plays a regular season game outside the United States, which makes this match a high-interest event for Brazilian fans and fans from the entire region.
The Chargers, acting as the home team, continue their international expansion strategy, strengthening their presence in the Latin American market.
Our commitment to the global expansion of the NFL reaches a new level with this historic game in Brazil. There is no better way to kick off the season than with two electrifying teams on an unprecedented international stage.
Peter O’Reilly, executive vice president of the league
This event is part of the NFL’s international games program, which seeks to bring official games to international markets each year. Previously, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Mexico have hosted these encounters. The inclusion of Brazil represents a significant step in the expansion of the sport.
Tickets for the game will be available soon through official NFL channels.
