Knowing the kickoff time for the Chicago Bears and Jacksonville Jaguars game in London is crucial for fans. The game starts at 8:30 a.m. Central Time (CT), but what time is that in London?
London observes British Summer Time (BST) during summer, which is Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) plus one hour. Adding six hours to the Central Time kickoff time, the game begins at 2:30 p.m. in London. This allows fans in both countries to plan their viewing.
The game will be held at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, home of the English Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur. This modern venue offers a great atmosphere for NFL games.
The Bears are the designated home team, giving the Jaguars the privilege of the coin toss. While seemingly minor, the coin toss can impact the game’s start.
The game will be broadcast on NFL Network and Fox in the US. Streaming options are available on NFL.com and the league’s mobile app.
The Bears have a mixed London record. They won against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2011 but lost to the Raiders at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in 2019. This is their third London appearance.
