    Entry: St. Louis CITY SC is Major League Soccer’s newest expansion team. The club’s majority female-led ownership group is committed to investing in the growth of the city they love. They believe the next-gen, world-class, $485-million CITYPARK, CITY SC’s home, plays an important role in continuing to build the positive momentum happening throughout the St. Louis region. CITYPARK opened in March 2023 as the team recently completed its inaugural MLS season.

    CITYPARK’s 32-acre stadium district is the largest urban professional sports campus in the U.S., and the only one with a stadium, training facility, practice fields, team headquarters and team store all within one downtown location. The campus helps unite the region around its love of sports and serves as the heartbeat of St. Louis by creating a 24/7/365 fan and community experience that encourages visitors and invites development in downtown St. Louis. MLS Commissioner Don Garber said this comprehensive stadium will “serve as a model for future professional sports teams in the U.S.”
