NFL & YouTube Present Historic Flag Football Game in London
On October 11, 2023, London will host a historic event as the NFL and YouTube present the first international flag football game, featuring music stars Aitch and Gunna as captains. The game, NFL's Flag Football Game on YouTube: London Edition, will take place at the Copper Box Arena and will be livestreamed globally on YouTube.
The game will bring together an exciting mix of NFL legends, global artists, and top YouTube creators. Gunna's team includes Diana Flores, Chad 'Ochocinco' Johnson, Deestroying, and Khaby Lame, while Aitch's team features Ryan Fitzpatrick, Tommy Fury, and Michael Dapaah, among others. Tickets for the live game are available for less than £15 via Ticketmaster U.K.
The event is designed to support the NFL's commitment to growing flag football globally and highlighting its inclusiveness. It follows the success of the first flag football game in New Orleans during Super Bowl LIX, hosted by YouTube and the NFL. This marks the extension of their partnership to include the next three Super Bowls and international games.
The NFL's Flag Football Game on YouTube: London Edition is set to be an entertaining and inclusive event, showcasing the best of football, music, and digital entertainment. With YouTube as the exclusive U.S. retailer for the NFL's Sunday Ticket out-of-home package starting in the 2023-24 season, this partnership continues to grow, bringing football to fans in new and exciting ways.
