The inaugural tournament was announced in April 2023 by Premier League chief executive Richard Masters,[2] and took place between 22 and 30 July 2023 at the following stadiums:[3]

* Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
* Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia
* Exploria Stadium in Orlando, Florida

The participants of the first competition were Aston Villa, Brentford, Brighton & Hove Albion, Chelsea, Fulham and Newcastle United.[4] In the 2023 Premier League Summer Series Aston Villa finished runners up and Chelsea finished first.

In March 2025, after the cancellation of the 2024 competition,[5] it was announced that the Summer Series would return in July 2025, with Bournemouth, Everton, Manchester United and West Ham United as participants. [6][7] In the 2025 Premier League Summer Series West Ham United finished runners up and Manchester United finished first.
