The Sidemen Charity Match is set to return bigger and better than ever in 2025, with the iconic Wembley Stadium as its new venue. Scheduled for Saturday, March 8, 2025, this event has fans buzzing with anticipation. Known for bringing together popular YouTube personalities for a good cause, the Sidemen Charity Match has grown into a global event, drawing massive live and online audiences each year.
After hosting the 2023 event at London Stadium, home to West Ham United, the Sidemen team—made up of popular UK YouTubers like KSI, Miniminter, and Zerkaa—have set their sights on Wembley, one of the most celebrated stadiums in the world. With a capacity of 90,000, Wembley offers a considerable upgrade from the previous venue, allowing more fans to attend in person. This shift signals the Sidemen’s ambition to elevate the annual charity match, which began humbly in 2016 and has since transformed into a major event for creators and fans alike.

Charitable Causes: BBC Children in Need and Bright Side
This year, the Sidemen Charity Match will raise funds for BBC Children in Need and the Sidemen’s own charity, Bright Side. As in previous years, the proceeds from ticket sales and donations go directly to these causes, supporting children and communities in need. The Sidemen’s dedication to philanthropy is a key element of the event’s appeal, and each year, they attract high-profile players to support their charitable efforts.
