Wanted to ask about about when Sky confirms Bundesliga match times

[61e]

Hello. I have booked tickets for a B Dortming game for the w/e of Feb 17/19 2023. I would be very grateful if anybody had a good sense of when the the official times are confirmed so as to finalise travel plans please.

@61e  As customers like you we have no advance info, could you not check on the clubs own website?

I don't think sky in the uk have much of a say in the fixtures. I think the home German broadcasters can decide what matches they show it as they'd have a bigger rights package. (Like sky and bt sports do in the uk)

The bundesliga website is up to week 16 for the dates so I think you need week 21 to be confirmed. 

Bare in mind, this forum is for sky in uk & Ireland

The DFL is due to release the next batch of kick-off times (matches for the new year, post-World Cup) between 24-28 October. They're waiting until the draw for the third round of the DFB-Pokal has been made. 

You should be able to finalise your travel plans by Halloween at the latest as the DFL are normally very good at sticking to their pre-announced dates.

I would like to thank everyone who took the time to consider my query re confirmation of Bundesliga games and wish to apologize for my tardy responses.

[61e]

Thank you.

Thank you for your suggestion. One of the travelling party was trying that so I was trying from a different angle.

Thank you for your considered  answer. I thought Sky Germany as well as DAZN were the relevant broadcasters and perhaps thoughtlessly, opted for an english speaking forum to raise my query. Thanks again.

Thanks very much. Perhaps my favourite answer 😂 without wishing to disrespect the other contributors whose replies were equally valid, as it gives hope to being able to finalise travel plans in the near future.
