Borussia Dortmund are set for a historic pre-season tour to Australia in the summer of 2027. The club has confirmed plans for the trip at the end of July.
The team will be based in Brisbane, where they are scheduled to play friendly matches. The exact fixture schedule and ticket details are yet to be confirmed, with an announcement expected before the end of the current season. The tour is part of a broader strategy to expand the club's global fanbase.
Partnership with Wynnum Wolves
Laying the groundwork for their activities in the region, Dortmund have already signed a five-year partnership with Wynnum Wolves FC. The collaboration is aimed at developing a BVB International Academy in Queensland. In a parallel move, the Queensland government has signed a statement of understanding with the Bundesliga concerning potential practice games at Brisbane's Suncorp Stadium.
For now, the focus remains firmly on the present campaign. Borussia Dortmund currently sit top of the Bundesliga table with 12 points from four games, holding a two-point lead over Bayern Munich. Their recent form reads three wins and two defeats from the last five matches. The next major test is away to Bayern Munich on October 31st.
The 2027 Australia tour represents another significant step in Borussia Dortmund's international outreach. Final confirmation of the full tour itinerary is anticipated in early 2027.
