Vikings to play game in London during 2024 season - Sports Illustrated  Minnesota Vikings News, Analysis and More

The Vikings will play a London game for the fourth time next season.

The Vikings will play a game in London as part of their 2024 regular season schedule, the NFL announced on Thursday. The Bears and Jaguars will also play games in London as part of the league’s international series, while the Panthers will play a game in Munich. Opponents, dates, and kickoff times won’t be announced until May, when the rest of the schedule comes out.

The game will take place at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, which is where the Vikings played the Saints in 2022.

As part of the NFL’s global markets program, the Vikings have marketing rights in England, as well as Canada. The program “grants NFL clubs access to international markets for marketing, fan engagement and commercialization activations as part of an important, long-term strategic effort to enable clubs to build their brands globally while driving NFL fan growth beyond the US.” It also seems to mean that the Vikings are more likely than the average team to play in London; this will be their second trip overseas in three seasons.
