The events will take place in mid-November and will give the opportunity to the Rossoneri fans in the two countries – over 34 million according to Nielsen – to see the 2021/22 Scudetto Trophy up close and meet AC Milan legend Daniele Massaro, who will be representing the Club in both countries.
Daniele Massaro commented, “Taking the Scudetto Trophy to Singapore and Indonesia is fantastic. The way fans in this region celebrated our triumph at the end of last season was truly impressive and something the Club has noticed. Having the opportunity to give back to our fans and thank them for their support makes us all very proud.”
AC Milan makes a return to South-East Asia after vising the country in different occasions in the past, including with its Legends Team in 2011 and 2013.
The visit to South-East Asia follows a successful first part of the AC Milan Trophy Tour, which saw the Club host events for over 2,500 fans in London and New York City.
The AC Milan Trophy Tour now continues with the same goal to bridge distances, allowing the Club to bring the AC Milan brand and its values around the world, whilst further strengthening the bond between the Club and its over 500 million fans worldwide.

NOVEMBER 13 – JAKARTA, INDONESIA
AC Milan and Milanisti Indonesia (a local AC Milan fan club) have joined forces to host a special screening event on Sunday, November 13 at the Hotel Borobudur, in the heart of Jakarta, for the AC Milan vs Fiorentina game.
The event will kick off at 9:00pm local time and will see the participation of AC Milan legend Daniele Massaro, who will be bringing the 2021/22 Scudetto Trophy and will be meeting the local fanbase. As part of the event, there will also be a raffle to win signed jerseys provided by the Club and Fondazione Milan.
Ahead of the event, between 4:00pm and 6:00pm local time, the Hotel Borobudur will also host a special meet and greet with Daniele Massaro, giving fans the opportunity to meet with an AC Milan legend and pose for a picture with the symbol of last season’s league triumph.
The visit to Jakarta will be an opportunity for the Rossoneri to give back to the passionate Indonesian fanbase, but it will also provide a moment of reflection and support following the recent Kanjuruhan Stadium disaster, which claimed the lives of over 130 people.
AC Milan President Paolo Scaroni commented: “Football is still mourning after the recent tragedy of the Kanjuruhan Stadium. Our visit to Indonesia wants to be a way for the Club to pay its respect to the Indonesian population and all football fans. We approach this trip with the utmost respect, convinced that we can play a positive role, encouraging people to believe in football again.”
To honour the memory of the victims, a minute of silence will be held at the venue hosting the event in Jakarta before the start of the AC Milan vs Fiorentina game, whilst Milanisti Indonesia will use the platform created by AC Milan to collect donations for the victims of the Kanjuruhan Stadium disaster.
All proceeds from ticket sale will contribute to the fund-raising activity organised by Milanisti Indonesia.
