A sellout crowd will be in attendance Saturday as the Los Angeles Galaxy look to win a league-record sixth MLS Cup.
The Galaxy will play the New York Red Bulls at Dignity Health Sports Park starting at 1 p.m., but tickets are sold out, team officials said.
According to team officials, this will be the seventh time the venue has hosted an MLS Cup final, the most in league history.
Games are sold out, so fans are encouraged to arrive early. Stadium gates open at 11am. The first 20,000 people through the door will receive an MLS Cup rally towel and get to watch the first of two performances by rapper/producer Warren G.
Fans can also enjoy family-friendly activities and musical entertainment at SoccerFest and Galaxy Park before kickoff.

The Galaxy enjoyed an unprecedented level of success at home in 2024, boasting a 16-4-0 record in all competitions at Dignity Health Sports Park. According to the team, they have won 14 straight games at home since May, outscoring their opponents 43-18.
Their advance to the MLS Cup final was also historic. The Galaxy scored 16 goals against three conceded in the first four postseason games, including five goals and two assists from Serbian striker Dejan Jovegic.
The Galaxy are already one of the most storied franchises in American soccer history, and will look to cap off a historic season with Saturday’s victory over the Red Bulls, adding to their league-record five MLS Cup championships.
