The Chicago Bears will not Host an International Game in 2026

The full slate of host teams for the NFL’s International Series has been announced, and the Chicago Bears will not give up a home game this season.

However, that doesn’t mean the Bears won’t be picked as the designated road team in one of these games.

The Bears are scheduled to travel to play two teams with International games in 2026, the Detroit Lions and the Atlanta Falcons.

The Lions will be the home team in Munich, Germany, while the Falcons will host the game in Madrid, Spain. For what it’s worth, there’s a lot of buzz about the Bears being picked for the Spain game because they are one of three teams with international marketing right there. The Miami Dolphins and Kansas City Chiefs are the other two, and the Chiefs are also scheduled to play at the Falcons in 2026.

The Jacksonville Jaguars will host two games in London, with the Washington Commanders also playing a home game there.

Paris, France, will get the New Orleans Saints this season, while Brazil will have the Dallas Cowboys playing in Rio de Janeiro.

Mexico City, Mexico, will feature the San Francisco 49ers, with the ‘Niners also playing in Melbourne, Australia, as the road team vs the Los Angeles Rams.

Now that the Bears will not be giving up a home game in Chicago, are you hoping they get picked for a game overseas?
