AC Milan is thrilled to announce Hong Kong as the first destination of the men’s First Team’s Pre-Season Tour 2025. The Rossoneri are scheduled to face Liverpool FC at the state-of-the-art Kai Tak Stadium on Saturday, 26 July, marking the Rossoneri’s return in Hong Kong after the last game played there in 2004.
Hong Kong is the first announced destination of a broader Pre-Season Tour across the Asia-Pacific region, with additional stops to be revealed in the coming weeks.
The match is part of the Hong Kong Football Festival 2025, which will feature AC Milan, Liverpool FC, Arsenal FC, and Tottenham Hotspur FC. The Festival was officially announced during a media event in Hong Kong earlier today, attended by club legends, including AC Milan’s Honorary Vice President Franco Baresi, alongside local media and VIPs.
The announcement coincides with launch of the Club’s first AC Milan Academy in Hong Kong, reinforcing its long-term commitment to the development of football at a grassroots level. The Academy will support young participants in their sporting and personal development, guiding them through a journey that nurtures both their football skills and personal growth. The opening of this Academy further embeds AC Milan’s football philosophy in the region and sets the scene for future community events.
The Pre-Season Tour 2025 will be a key moment in AC Milan’s preparation for the 2025/26 season. Beyond the pitch, the Tour also marks a significant opportunity to reconnect with fans in the Asia-Pacific region, reinforcing the Club’s presence in key international markets and engaging with its passionate fanbase. The Tour will also serve as a platform to strengthen relationships with key stakeholders, including local institutions and partners, while providing a valuable opportunity to drive commercial growth and reinforce AC Milan’s brand strength on a global scale.
Further destinations of AC Milan’s Pre-Season Tour 2025 will be officially announced in the coming weeks, as the Rossoneri prepare to head East this summer.
