There’s no word yet on whether the Broncos mascot, Miles, will change his name to Kilometers temporarily, but the team has several fan and community events set for their week-long stay in London.
The Broncos are hosting a fan event at The Admiralty Club near Trafalgar Square on Saturday from 1-5 p.m. London time and a pub-to-pitch style parade beginning at 11 a.m. at The Antwerp Arms near Tottenham on Sunday.
The Broncos, of course, take on the New York Jets at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium Sunday and will try to run their winning streak to three after topping Philadelphia, 21-17.
“You make a trip like this overseas with a football-first mindset,” Broncos president Damani Leech told The Denver Post. “This is about the game and trying to get a win, but it’s also an opportunity to connect with our existing fans and deepen our relationship with those fans. I found, last time we played there, not only are there Broncos fans from Colorado who made the trip, but there are Broncos fans from all across the U.S. and Canada who use it as an opportunity to go to a different away game site.
“Not to mention all the fans we have across the U.K., Ireland and across Europe. It’s a great opportunity to deepen our relationship with those fans.”
The last time Denver played in London, Leech and the Walton-Penner Family Ownership Group had been on the job for a little more than two months. Now they’re well-established and have a better sense of what Broncos Country looks like in the U.K.
They’ve got more than 1,200 fans signed up for their pair of events.
“Last time we played there, I was just genuinely surprised,” Leech said of the number of Broncos fans.
Denver’s partner in the NFL’s global markets program is Mexico — there haven’t been games there the past couple of years as Estadio Azteca gets renovated ahead of the 2026 World Cup — but the Broncos, “recognize that we have fans there and fans will be traveling, so we do want to use this as an opportunity to deepen our relationship with them.”
In addition to the weekend fan events, the Broncos are also hosting a flag football clinic for about 60 middle schoolers at Grey Court School in London, which Leech called a “really special” event that will feature Broncos owner Carrie Walton-Penner.
“We’ll have Miles, alumni and cheer,” Leech said. “The school is part of the NFL’s flag football program, and the team that’s participating plays as the Broncos, so there’s a nice connection there with that group. That’ll be fun.
“It’s great from a community standpoint, it’s great from a flag football standpoint. That sport alone is just growing. It’s really important to the league as a strategic lever, and obviously, it’s going to be in the Olympics in L.A. in 2028. So for all those reasons, it made sense for us.”
