ST. LOUIS (KMOX) - If you want to be among the 3,000-person supporter section at St. Louis CITY SC games starting in 2023, then you'll want to be ready for the sale that begins next month.
The team announced that on Oct. 19 fans will be able to purchase season tickets for the 3,000-seat, safe-standing supporter section. It will be the first group of tickets to be officially on sale for the upcoming 28th team in Major League Soccer.
“The supporter section will truly be the heartbeat of our gameday, so we wanted to show appreciation to the region’s most loyal and die-hard soccer fans by inviting them to be among the first to purchase their tickets,” said Matt Sebek, St. Louis CITY SC Chief Experience Officer.
The supporter section is where the team’s most vocal supporters will energize the entire stadium by creating an atmosphere dominated by singing, chanting, drumming and the waiving of banners and flags.
Last September, CITY fans set a MLS record in the first 24 hours of sales for deposits on season tickets. They received 30,000 deposits within the first 15 minutes and 50,000 after the first 24 hours. The club's merchandise sales also previously set a new league record.

Supporter section ticket deposit holders will be able to convert their deposits to season tickets starting on Oct. 19 by purchasing through SeatGeek. Supporter season tickets will cost $391, which is $23 per the 17 home matches. Current deposit holders will receive emails from the club with more information and directions. The specific buy window for fans who have placed deposits will be based on the deposit time stamp and the team is still accepting deposits for those interested in being part of supporter movement.

The slope of the supporter safe-standing section is 34%, or the steepest allowed in the MLS, inspired by European soccer clubs such as Borussia Dortmund and designed so fans will be as close to the field as possible. Combined with the stadium’s flat canopy, this design will maximize the reverb of the chanting, cheering and drumming from the team’s supporters in the north end of the stadium, resulting in an intimidating wall of sound that will electrify the gameday atmosphere.
St. Louis CITY is looking to create one of the most exciting and energized supporter sections in Major League Soccer. Special features within the safe-standing, locked-seat general admission section will include “capo” stands for chant leaders, centralized drum platform, a dedicated supporter bar featuring local beers and spirits, and customized rigging designed to support oversized tifo banners that can be hung from the stadium’s canopy roof.
