Liverpool have announced their next charity match that will see their legends team take on their Celtic counterparts.
The LFC foundation has confirmed the fixture will take place at Anfield on Saturday, March 25 2023. It will be the first Legends fixture between the two clubs, and is scheduled to kick-off at 3pm.
Over the past few months, the Liverpool Legends have played a double header against Manchester United. Now the team will reunite once again to face Celtic, which is also the former club of Reds icon Sir Kenny Dalglish.

All of the proceeds from the match will go towards the LFC Foundation’s and partner charity programmes including schools, inclusive sports, social action, health and wellbeing and food poverty. The home game against Man United raised over £500,000, which benefited the LFC Foundation’s charity partners, Cash For Kids, and IntoUniversity, as well as Forever Reds and the Reds’ charity’s local community, social action and football projects.
Matt Parish, chief executive of LFC Foundation, said: “We are pleased to announce our seventh home Official Legends Charity Match against Celtic Legends next year and we are very much looking forward to welcoming the LFC family to Anfield for a fun-filled afternoon.
“I’m always overwhelmed by the support and generosity we receive that enables us to support more children, young people, and families in underserved communities across the Liverpool City Region and beyond through our programmes and our charity partners.
“Both clubs have a shared history and I’ve no doubt that the Legends will put on a fantastic and competitive display of football for all to enjoy. “
Tickets for the match will be priced at £27 for adults, £7 for juniors and £17 for over 65s. Season ticket holders can buy tickets from 1pm on Monday, December 12, members from 1pm on Tuesday, December 13 and the general sale will take place from 1pm on Thursday December 15.
