After our historic four-in-a-row in 2023/24, Pep Guardiola’s side will prepare for our pursuit of an unprecedented fifth straight Premier League crown in the US.
During our trip stateside, we will play four matches to enhance our sharpness before the return of domestic football.
The best way to follow our US Tour is to download the official Man City app and sign up for a CITY+ subscription. That way you will see all our press conferences, training sessions and matches LIVE, as well as everything else the team get up to on US soil.
Here’s when and where things are happening this summer.
TRAVELLING
Pep Guardiola and his players will jet off from Manchester to North Carolina on Friday 19 July.

City will play four matches across four different states while in the United States of America.
In North Carolina we will lock horns with Celtic at the Kenan Memorial Stadium in Chapel Hill at 00:30 (UK) on Wednesday 24 July.
After that, we travel to New York to play AC Milan in the Yankee Stadium with kick-off scheduled for 23:00 (UK) on Saturday 27 July.
Our third match is against Barcelona at the Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Florida. Kick-off there is at 00:00 (UK) on Wednesday 31 July.

There will be plenty of opportunities to hear from Guardiola and members of his squad throughout our pre-season tour of the US.
The boss will field questions from the media on Monday 22 July, Friday 26 July, Monday 29 July and Friday 2 July where he will also be joined by a City player.
Guardiola’s press conferences will be broadcast live on mancity.com and our official app before written and video recaps are published.

These will also take place on Monday 22 July, Friday 26 July, Monday 29 July and Friday 2 July.
