The NFL announced today that the Green Bay Packers are set to face the New York Giants at London's Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Oct. 9, 2022, the Packers' first international regular-season game. Kickoff is set for 8:30 a.m. Central Time, 2:30 p.m. local time in London.
As the game is a neutral-site international contest, the Packers will have an extremely limited number of tickets available for Packers Season Ticket Holders to purchase through a drawing. The prices and seat locations of the tickets have not yet been determined. The full 2022 Packers schedule will be announced in conjunction with the NFL schedule release on May 12.
This week, the Packers ticket office will send a survey to Packers Season Ticket Holders who are opted in to receive promotional emails, inviting them to enter into the drawing for the opportunity to purchase tickets. Season Ticket Holders who did not receive the survey via email are reminded that they must be opted in to receive promotional emails in order to receive such communications.
Season Ticket Holders who are opted out will only receive emails related to their Packers Season Ticket account. They will not receive emails regarding exclusive Season Ticket Holder pre-sale opportunities for Packers events outside of Lambeau Field, such as the game in London, or other Lambeau Field in-stadium events, such as the recently announced soccer game. Such emails only go to Season Ticket Holders who are opted in.
Season Ticket Holders can log in to their "My Packers Account" to opt in to receive promotional emails and to answer the international game ticket drawing survey online. Similar to the drawing held in advance of a potential Super Bowl berth, the Season Ticket Holders who respond 'yes' to the survey will have their names placed into a drawing; those selected in the drawing will have the opportunity to purchase a limited number of tickets.
Further details about the game in London, including fan engagement activities, will be announced at a later date. Fans wishing to receive the latest news about this year's NFL international games, including ticketing updates , should register at: www.nfl.com/internationalgames. Tickets for the games in Munich and London will be available to the general public in June and tickets for the game in Mexico City will be available in August. Exact dates for sales windows will be announced by the NFL later this month.
Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is the largest football club stadium in London, with a capacity of 62,850. A multi-purpose venue capable of hosting a wide range of events throughout the year, it is the first purpose-built NFL stadium outside of the US. The stadium delivers an award-winning fan experience with more than 1,800 digital screens throughout the venue, 60 food and drink vendors and even its own microbrewery.
The game will see the Packers become the 32nd NFL team to play in the city since 2007. Previously, the Packers have played internationally during the preseason on three occasions: in Toronto in 1997, Tokyo in 1998 and Winnipeg in 2019. Last year, as part of the League's expansion of the regular season to 17 games, it was determined that, beginning with the 2022 season, up to four of the teams from the conference whose teams were eligible for a ninth regular-season home game would instead be designated to play a neutral-site international game each year.
