New signing Christian Nørgaard, who signed for Everton just last week, has been added to the line-up for US TV show Men in Blazers’ pre-season European debut at Hill Dickinson Stadium.
The new(ish) home of the Toffees will play host to hit US football media network Men in Blazers with an edition of the show’s popular live spin-off event, featuring stars of the Everton first team. Platinum packages are already sold out.
Taking place on Monday 17 August, the ticketed ‘evening with’ event will see Men in Blazers host and lifelong Evertonian Roger Bennett raise the curtain on the season to come, and be joined live on stage by members of the men’s senior squad, including Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Everton’s 2025/26 Player of the Season James Garner, summer arrival Hayden Hackney, and Nørgaard, with others potentially still to be announced.
Everton and Men in Blazers have previously joined forces to present sold-out live stage shows in Washington DC and New York, with Blues based in the UK now getting the opportunity to enjoy Bennett’s captivating blend of comedy and candid football chat.
Supporters will hear more about the players’ careers, personalities and experiences at Everton, as well as their excitement and ambitions for the season ahead – with the opening fixture against Crystal Palace at Hill Dickinson Stadium taking place later that week, the event will provide a unique opportunity to hear directly from the dressing room as anticipation builds for the return of Premier League football.
Born and raised in Liverpool, Bennett moved to the USA and set up the Men in Blazers Media Network in 2010 to share his love of football – and Everton specifically – with a North American audience. An instant hit, it later became an NBC television show and cultivated a cult social media following in the States and beyond. It is now the largest independent association football-focused media company in North America, encompassing podcasts, TV and live events. Past guests have included not only Everton stars, but also rival legends including Mo Salah and Pep Guardiola, as well as football-adjacent big names such as Ted Lasso star Jason Sudeikis and lifelong Liverpool FC fan John Oliver.
Tickets for Men in Blazers Live at Hill Dickinson Stadium’s The Yard are now on sale, with General and Gold admission packages still available.
