On Sunday 31 May 2026, Soccer Aid for UNICEF takes over London Stadium.
Kick off is fast approaching and tickets are selling fast for Soccer Aid for UNICEF 2026! With a dazzling line-up that has world-class actors Tom Hiddleston, Owen Cooper, Damson Idris, Danny Dyer and Chris O’Dowd playing alongside legends of the game Wayne Rooney, Jordi Alba, Jill Scott and Dimitar Berbatov, it’s set to be a thrilling match. They’ll be joining fan favourites Usain Bolt, Olly Murs, Nicky Byrne, Maisie Adam, Dermot Kennedy and Soccer Aid co-founder Robbie Williams along with a host of huge names yet to be announced.
Will last year’s winners, the Soccer Aid World XI, hold onto the title? There’s everything to play for and with more announcements still to come – secure your tickets today!
For 20 years, we’ve shared one goal: for children to grow up safe, healthy and able to play. Now two all-star squads go head-to-head to protect play for every child.
Play is at the heart of childhood – moving, exploring, imagining. But conflict, disease and disasters can disrupt it in an instant.
This year’s fundraising could help UNICEF create safe spaces in crises, deliver vital vaccinations and nutrition, support learning, and so much more to protect every child’s right to play.
To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Soccer Aid for UNICEF, multi‑platinum singer and TV presenter Olly Murs has completed an epic 400km Challenge to raise funds for UNICEF’s work around the world. Find out about Olly’s brutal journey and show your support by clicking the link below.
