Probably starts earlier in August in order to finish a bit earlier due to the WC next summer but not announced yet....

Probably mid-August. The new Club World Cup 2025 might prevent it from starting any earlier (City and Chelsea players need vacation after the tournament) and the 2026 World Cup might stop it from starting any later.

Second weekend of August ?
Want to make sure not to miss the first two weekends so as to catch a Home match before flying back to Oz.
Didn't allow for the Euros this season but was fortunate enough to score Everton Away tickets - might not be so lucky next time.
A Google search shows that the PL didn't release/confirm last season's start until December.

That will be the last season with three international breaks in the autumn. A small step for mankind.

Friday 1 August, we'll be the televised season opener at Wycombe.

I still can't quite believe we lost all those 2024/25 games starting at home to Stains .

Ah bollocks !!!
Flights booked to return home on 18th.
Just have to hope our opening fixture is at home this time (and not on a Monday night).
Thanks for the heads up anyway - I see that they released the dates on Friday.
