Pittsburgh Steelers to Play Game in Paris, France as Part of NFL International Series

Reports say the Saints will face the Steelers in the NFL’s first regular-season game in France, part of the league’s 2026 international slate.

  • On Sunday, October 25, 2026, the New Orleans Saints will host the Pittsburgh Steelers at the Stade de France in Paris, marking the NFL's first-ever regular-season game in France.
  • League officials have targeted Paris as a priority international market in recent years, while the Saints have held marketing rights in France since 2023, expanding their presence through a partnership with the Paris Musketeers.
  • Following the NFL's first game in Dublin, Ireland, last season, the Steelers defeated the Minnesota Vikings 24-21 at Croke Park in Week 4, returning to Europe for a second consecutive year.
  • Because New Orleans acts as the home team, the Steelers will play eight true road games this season instead of nine, according to reports.
  • The 80,000-seat Stade de France, which hosted events during the 2024 Summer Olympics, will serve as the venue for the Week 7 matchup, cementing France's place in the NFL's expanding international footprint.
