They hosted the first Sidemen Charity Match back in 2016 at Southampton’s St Mary’s stadium.
But the event has since grown even larger in size, selling out the 60,00 capacity London Stadium last year and Charlton’s 27,000-plus ground The Valley the year prior.
Last year the match raised a whopping £2.4million for charities Teenage Cancer Trust and CALM and was watched by 17 million people at home as well as the sold-out crowd in the stadium.
Earlier this month it was announced the next edition of the game would take place at a full-capacity Wembley Stadium on March 8 2025.
Tickets for the game, which this year will be in aid of Bright Side and BBC Children in Need, went on sale on Monday morning at 9am.
Within three hours of tickets becoming available, they sold out.
An online queue for the tickets on the website showed a staggering 140,000 people in the queue AFTER the tickets had been sold out.
Along with the 90,000 seats available for Wembley, this means that more than 230,000 fans tried to get their hands on tickets.
