The much-anticipated Borussia Dortmund Charity Cup is returning to Dortmund, Germany, on August 1, 2025. This year's event will take place at the Signal Iduna Park stadium, promising an exciting mix of sports, entertainment, and charity.
The tournament, now in its annual edition, gathers professional players, celebrities, and amateur teams to support local and international charitable organizations. The event aims to promote social projects, youth development, and health-related causes, reinforcing community engagement and social responsibility.
Three teams will compete in this year's Charity Cup: Borussia Dortmund, Bundesliga All-Stars, and Gastro-Kickers. The tournament will consist of two 25-minute matches between each team, with each match offering a varied supporting program, including a bouncy castle, drinks, and a high-quality tombola with main prizes worth around 15,000 euros.
On Friday, the event will kick off with the first match between Gastro Kickers and the BVB-Traditionsmannschaft at 5:30 PM. Following this, the second match will see FC St. Pauli Altliga Traditionsmannschaft take on Gastro Kickers at 6:30 PM. The evening will culminate with the third match between BVB-Traditionsmannschaft and FC St. Pauli Altliga Traditionsmannschaft at 7:30 PM.
In addition to the football matches, visitors can look forward to an after-show party with live music from RockDoggz from Hamburg and DJ, as well as performances by Marty Kessler, Marko Abend, and DJ Rüdi, immediately after the matches on the sports field in Grömitz.
