When Is The 2025 FA Cup Final? What Time Is Kick Off?
The 2025 FA Cup final will be played on Saturday, 17 May, 2025, and despite there being just 16 days until the match, an official announcement regarding kick off time has not yet been made.
This has drawn criticism from football fans on social media, with many citing that Manchester City fans need to book travel and accommodation, and the lack of transparency surrounding the fixture means that they can’t yet do so.
Regardless, last year’s final got underway at 3pm, so this looks to be the likeliest kick off time.
What TV Channel Is The 2025 FA Cup Final On?
As is standard with the FA Cup final, both BBC and ITV will be broadcasting the match on their respective channels.
This means that the game will be shown on BBC One and ITV1, while there will also be live streams provided by both broadcasters on BBC iPlayer and ITVX for ers to watch on the move or from the comfort of their homes.
