The Rams’ opponent in their 2026 trip to Australia will be the San Francisco 49ers, the NFL announced Thursday.
The game – announced last year – will mark the first NFL game played in Australia. It will take place at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, which has a capacity of more than 100,000 spectators.
“Since we first secured marketing rights to the country in 2021 and more recently since the announcement of this game last year, we have seen tremendous excitement for our team from fans both in Australia and also across the world,” Rams president Kevin Demoff said in a statement. “We look forward to spending this offseason continuing to deepen our connection with the Melbourne community leading up to the game this fall.”
The date, kickoff time and broadcaster for the game are still to be announced. It will be one of nine NFL games in international markets in 2026, with London, Madrid, Munich, Paris, Mexico City and Rio de Janeiro all scheduled to host at least one contest.
The Rams are the designated home team for the game, meaning that the 49ers will not play at SoFi Stadium during the 2026 regular season while the Rams will still make a trip up to Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara for the second game of the divisional rivalry.
