AC Milan has just added an electrifying new stop to their 2026 Pre-Season Tour, and it's one that fans won't want to miss. The Rossoneri are heading to Jakarta, Indonesia, where they'll face Chelsea FC at the iconic Gelora Bung Karno Stadium on Saturday, 8 August, with kickoff set for 7:00 PM local time. This isn't just another friendly—it's a historic moment, marking the first time two top European clubs will clash on Indonesian soil.

For AC Milan, this match is a celebration of the incredible passion that defines the region. Indonesia isn't just a stop on the map; it's a true Rossoneri home, even if it's over 11,000 kilometers from Milan. According to Nielsen data, Indonesia ranks as the third country worldwide for the number of AC Milan supporters—a staggering 40 million fans. And it's not just about numbers: the country leads globally in engagement across the club's digital platforms, proving that the Rossoneri spirit burns bright in Southeast Asia.

Jakarta also holds a special place in AC Milan's history. The team first played at Gelora Bung Karno Stadium back in 1994, facing Persib Bandung in a memorable encounter. More recently, the city hosted a stop on the Trophy Tour that brought the 2021/22 Scudetto trophy to fans around the world. Now, they're returning to create new memories, with Perth serving as the team's training base for the summer tour—a state-of-the-art setup that promises top-tier preparation.

The match against Chelsea rounds out a thrilling pre-season schedule that also includes the Milan Derby against Inter in Australia. For fans looking to gear up for the action, this tour is the perfect excuse to sport your Rossoneri pride—whether you're in the stands in Jakarta or cheering from home. Get ready for a summer of world-class football and unforgettable moments.
