The Pittsburgh Steelers are taking their black and gold across the Atlantic for a historic showdown. The NFL has officially announced that the Steelers will face the New Orleans Saints in Paris, marking the league's first-ever game in the City of Light.

Scheduled for Week 7 on Sunday, October 25, the matchup will kick off at 9:30 a.m. ET from the iconic Stade de France. Fans can catch all the action live on NFL Network as the league expands its global footprint with nine international games this season.

"We're honored to represent the Pittsburgh Steelers and the NFL in the League's first-ever game in Paris this upcoming season," said Steelers President Art Rooney II. "Playing the New Orleans Saints in such a historic setting is a great opportunity to showcase the NFL's global growth and to connect with fans around the world. It's an exciting moment for our organization and for Steelers Nation everywhere."

This isn't the Steelers' first time making international history. Just last September, they defeated the Minnesota Vikings in the NFL's Dublin debut. The team also played at London's Wembley Stadium against the Vikings in 2013, but this time, they won't wait nearly as long to leave the country again.

The Saints will serve as the designated home team at Stade de France, a venue that has hosted World Cup matches and events during the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games. Beyond Paris, the NFL's global series also includes three games in London, plus stops in Melbourne, Rio de Janeiro, Madrid, Munich, and Mexico City.

For Steelers fans looking to gear up for this historic trip, now's the perfect time to stock up on travel-ready team apparel. Whether you're planning to watch from the stands in Paris or from your living room, representing the black and gold has never been more exciting.
