Heritage Celebration Night
Match Presented by Allina Health
There’s no doubt about it, folks: the Seattle Sounders are on fire. Undefeated in their last 10 matches, they’re on a fast-paced upward climb and are currently only three points behind the Loons in the Western table. However, Seattle is not unbeatable, and your Black and Blue have already proven they know how to hold their own against the Rave Green, having impressed as the only MLS opposition to secure a victory at Lumen Field this season. Join us for this high-stakes match between Western Conference contenders and cheer on the boys as they battle for positioning ahead of rapidly-approaching playoffs.
In addition, Saturday is our Heritage Celebration Match, where Minnesota will rep the awesome retro Heritage Kit and pay homage to iterations of Minnesota soccer past. It’s a big night for Minnesota United; read on for everything you need to know.
Before You Leave
- Plan your route to the stadium by reading up on our parking and transit options. Be aware that I-94 will be closed in both directions between I-35W and Hwy 280, and if you plan on taking the Green Line, be aware of the temporary bus replacement.
- Get your parking pass in advance via SeatGeek.com to guarantee your spot and save time at the lots.
- Check out our clear bag policy so you don’t have to stash your bag in a bush!
- Reminder that you CAN bring empty, clear, plastic water bottles into the stadium. If your water bottle doesn’t meet that standard, you’ll have to leave it at home. Even if it’s made of 100% pure titanium and can be taken to the bottom of the ocean, it can’t be taken into Allianz Field.
- Bring your card. Allianz Field is a cashless facility.
- Download the MNUFC app for ticket access, stadium maps, Supporters Chants, and a whole lot more.
