The NFL International Series is a series of American football games during the National Football League (NFL) regular season that are played outside the United States. The series has held games in the United Kingdom (in place since 2007), Brazil, Germany, Ireland, and Spain, as well as upcoming games in Australia and France. Between 2016 and 2022, the series also intermittently included games played in Mexico, though the league will return in 2026.

Wembley Stadium in London was the exclusive home stadium for International Series games from 2007 to 2015 and continued to host NFL games through 2019 and again since 2022. The series expanded to more stadiums, first to Twickenham Stadium in London and Estadio Azteca in Mexico City in 2016, and eventually to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London in 2019. Other sites that have hosted games include three locations in Germany: Allianz Arena in Munich (2022 and 2024), Deutsche Bank Park in Frankfurt (2023), and Olympiastadion in Berlin (2025); Arena Corinthians in São Paulo, Brazil (2024 and 2025), the Bernabéu in Madrid, Spain (2025), and Croke Park in Dublin, Ireland (2025). Maracanã Stadium in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, is set to host three games over the next five years, beginning in 2026. Melbourne Cricket Ground in Melbourne, Australia, and Stade de France in Paris, France, will also host games in 2026.
