The Sidemen charity football match has become a regular event in British culture since it first took place in June 2016 at St Mary's Stadium. Since then, five other Sidemen charity matches have taken place, with the latest happening in 2025 at Wembley Stadium.
The 2025 edition was the first time that the event had taken place at Wembley, and given that all tickets for the match at the national stadium were sold within three hours of them going on sale, the YouTube group have big plans once again for the next event.
