What are the Celtic FC games today?

The quickest way to find today’s match is the official Celtic FC fixtures page. It lists the men’s team’s next game, including the opponent, competition, and a link to the match centre with live updates.

  • Visit Celtic FC Fixtures (club’s official schedule) — the primary source for all fixture dates.
  • The page covers Scottish Premiership, Scottish Cup, Premier Sports Cup, and European ties.
  • For today specific: look for the “Next Game” panel; kick‑off times are listed in BST (British Summer Time).
The catch

All times on the official site are subject to change, especially when TV picks are confirmed closer to matchday.

Today’s date and opponents

  • Open the official fixtures page and match today’s date against the listed game.
  • Opponents are shown alongside the competition badge.
  • If no match is scheduled, the page will show the next fixture.

Competition details

  • Scottish Premiership games are the most frequent.
  • Cup competitions (Scottish Cup, Premier Sports Cup) appear alongside league fixtures.
  • European matches (UEFA Europa League) are listed separately on the same page.

Where to find live updates

  • The match centre on celticfc.com provides real‑time commentary and stats.
  • Celtic TV (Celtic TV) streams games that aren’t on UK television.
  • BBC Sport’s live text service also covers Celtic matches.
Bottom line: The official fixtures page is the single source of truth for today’s game. Everything else — TV coverage, streaming options, live updates — flows from that starting point.

How can I watch Celtic FC games on TV?

UK broadcast rights for Celtic’s 2024‑25 season are split across Sky Sports, Premier Sports, and BBC Scotland. International viewers have additional options through CBS, beIN Sports, and the club’s own streaming service.

TV broadcasters in the UK (Sky Sports, BBC)

  • Scottish Premiership matches: Sky Sports and Premier Sports (Live Football on TV)
  • Scottish Cup matches: Premier Sports and BBC Scotland (TV listings site)
  • Premier Sports Cup matches: Premier Sports (TV listings site)
  • UEFA Europa League matches: TNT Sports (TV listings site)

For a specific example, the Celtic vs Hearts final‑day match was on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Football in the UK, and on CBS in the United States (ESPN’s match preview).

International broadcast options

  • United States: CBS and beIN Sports (for selected matches) (ESPN’s match preview)
  • Australia: beIN Sports (ESPN’s match preview)
  • Other regions: check local sports networks or the official Celtic TV page for regional blackout info.

Celtic TV streaming service

  • Celtic TV offers live streaming for every non‑televised match (Celtic TV subscription page).
  • Subscription options: £14.99 per month or £149.99 for an annual plan (outside UK & Ireland) (Celtic TV pricing).
  • Pre‑season friendlies are also available live on Celtic TV (Celtic TV YouTube channel).
The trade‑off

Sky Sports and Premier Sports cover the biggest matches, but Celtic TV gives fans outside the UK access to every game. For domestic fans without Sky, a Celtic TV subscription plus a VPN may be needed.

Bottom line: TV coverage is split between broadcasters and streaming. The official club site remains the best source for confirmed broadcast information closer to matchday.

What time is the Celtic game today?

Exact kick‑off times are published on the official fixtures page. For the most recent example, the Celtic vs Hearts final‑day match kicked off at 12:30 BST (ESPN’s match preview). Use that as a typical Saturday slot.

Kick‑off time for today’s match

  • Check Celtic FC Fixtures for the confirmed time.
  • Midweek games often start at 19:45 or 20:00 BST.
  • Sunday matches may have unusual times (e.g., 12:00, 14:00, 16:30) depending on TV selection.

Time zone considerations

  • All published times on the official site are in BST (British Summer Time) during summer, GMT in winter.
  • International fans: use a time zone converter — the ESPN article for the Hearts match noted UK time for a global audience (ESPN’s match preview).
  • If watching via Celtic TV, the stream’s start time is usually 15 minutes before kick‑off.

Changes due to scheduling

  • Matches can be rescheduled for TV — the official site is the only authoritative source for last‑minute changes (official club site).
  • For the 2024‑25 season, several games have moved from Saturday to Sunday to accommodate broadcasters.
Bottom line: Kick‑off times are fluid. Bookmark the fixtures page and check 48 hours ahead — that’s when TV picks are usually confirmed.

Are Celtic playing at home today?

Celtic Park, with a capacity of 60,411, is the home ground. To know if today’s game is at home, look for “vs” (home) or “v” (home) — if an opponent is listed after “vs”, it’s a home game. Away games show “@” or “away” next to the opponent.

Home vs away identification

  • On the fixtures page, home matches are listed with the team name on the left and opponent on the right.
  • Away matches are indicated by the opponent name first, then “v Celtic”.
  • The match centre header also states the venue.

Celtic Park location and access

  • Address: Celtic Park, Glasgow G40 3RE, Scotland (official club site).
  • Nearest train station: Dalmarnock (walking distance).
  • Parking: limited street parking; use public transport or park‑and‑ride.

Ticket availability for home games

  • Tickets go on sale via the official website for season ticket holders first, then general sale.
  • High‑demand matches (Old Firm, European nights) sell out quickly — sign up for email alerts.
  • Hospitality packages are available through the club’s official partners (Celtic TV subscription).

The pattern is clear: home games require early planning, while away games depend on the opposition’s venue.

Where is Celtic playing today?

If at home, the venue is Celtic Park, Glasgow. If away, the fixture page lists the opposing stadium. For example, the Hearts match was at Celtic Park (ESPN’s match preview). Away grounds vary from Ibrox (Rangers) to Pittodrie (Aberdeen) and beyond.

Stadium name and location

  • Home: Celtic Park, 95 Kerrydale St, Glasgow G40 3RE.
  • Away: Check the fixture page for the opposing stadium name and address.
  • Use Google Maps or the club’s “Away Travel” section for driving directions.

Travel and parking information

  • For Celtic Park: take First Bus routes 2, 64, 64A, or 263 from city centre.
  • Train: Dalmarnock station (5‑min walk).
  • Away games: consult the opposition club’s website for parking and public transport info.

Live directions or map links

  • The official Celtic FC app provides a “Find Us” feature with real‑time directions.
  • For away matches, the club publishes travel guides on the website.

The catch: venue details are confirmed on the official site, making it the best source for location information.

Step‑by‑Step Guide to Following Celtic FC Games

  1. Check the official fixtures page — Celtic FC Fixtures is your starting point for date, opponent, competition, and venue.
  2. Confirm kick‑off time — note that times can change; revisit 48 hours before matchday.
  3. Determine TV coverage — use the table above to see which UK or international channel is broadcasting. If not on TV, proceed to step 4.
  4. Subscribe to Celtic TV if you’re outside the UK or want to watch non‑televised games — Celtic TV subscription.
  5. Set a reminder — use the official Celtic FC app to get push alerts for kick‑off.
  6. Follow live updates — the match centre on the website or BBC Sport’s live text service.
Why this matters

With kick‑off times moving frequently due to TV picks, fans who rely on memory often miss the first 10 minutes. A 48‑hour check saves the disappointment.

Clarity: what we know and what we don’t

Confirmed facts

  • Celtic FC is based in Glasgow, Scotland
  • Home stadium is Celtic Park (capacity 60,411)
  • Manager is Brendan Rodgers as of 2024‑25 season
  • Club was founded in 1887 (Celtic FC)

What’s unclear

  • TV broadcast rights for individual matches vary by region (Live Football on TV)
  • Injury lineup for upcoming matches is not yet confirmed

Voices from the matchday

“All times are subject to change.”

— Celtic FC, official fixtures page (Celtic FC)

“Celtic entered that final‑day match a point behind in second place and needed a home win to retain the title.”

— ESPN match preview (ESPN)

What this means for fans

For Celtic fans in Glasgow, the best bet is to check the official site 48 hours before kick‑off, as TV selections can shift last‑minute. The pattern is clear: the club’s own channels (web, app, Celtic TV) are the most reliable, while third‑party listings sometimes lag by a day. For fans outside the UK, a Celtic TV subscription plus a quick time‑zone conversion keeps you in the game without missing a beat. The choice for the travelling supporter is straightforward: use the official fixtures page as your anchor, supplement with Celtic TV or Sky Sports for live action, and never assume a time until the broadcaster confirms it.
