The tour, sponsored by Evonik, will take place between 26 July and 2 August 2026, and is the fourth time Dortmund have made the trip to Japan following tours to Toyko (2015, 2017) and Osaka (2024). Two friendly games have been planned, with Dortmund first set to face partner club Cerezo Osaka - where former BVB hero Shinji Kagawa currently plays - on 29 July, before travelling to play FC Tokyo in the capital on 1 August.
