As the second month of MLS action winds to a close, things are starting to heat up. And we’re not just talking about the action on the pitch.
The temperature is warming up, the days are getting longer and we’re nearly hitting peak Seattle spring and summer. It’s a good time to be in the Pacific Northwest if you ask us.
The Seattle Sounders announced Monday that tickets are now on sale for this year’s slate of full stadium matches. In 2015, the club only opened CenturyLink Field to full capacity four times. What's better than four, you ask? We say five!
This year, we’re taking down the tarps and asking you to help us fill our beloved home to the brim for the five biggest matchups of 2016.
So if you need more convincing - we’re hoping you don’t - here are five reasons why you just can’t skip out on these matches, which you can get now thanks to our 5-match pack.
Be A Part of the Record
The Sounders set a new record for attendance in 2015, averaging 44,247 supporters over 17 matches in the Emerald City. Just how do we continue to be among the teams with the highest attendance around the globe every season? By hanging out with you, our soccer friends! We’re eager to set a new record in 2016 and you’re going to want to be a part of that.
The Sounders Pretty Much Never Lose Full-Stadium Matches
No one can guarantee a win, but we can come pretty darn close when we’re playing full-stadium matches at CenturyLink Field. When the crowd is north of 45,000, the Rave Green’s record is an impressive 15-2-3, including postseason play. So if you love #wins and #goals, you may want to grab a seat.

If you’re looking to get the best value in town, you can’t go wrong with the 5-match pack. At just $25 a match, you’re guaranteeing a season of F-U-N at a very nice price. And with all that money you save, you can grab some of the newest Rave Green gear.
Major Matchups
These full-stadium matches will feature rivalries and even a first-ever visit to Seattle. This year, the full-stadium matches include a clashes with Cascadia rivals the Portland Timbers and Vancouver Whitecaps FC, plus the LA Galaxy and Real Salt Lake. New York City FC is making its first-ever trip to CenturyLink Field, and the matchup will kick off the summer series on June 25.
So Much Boom, So Much Clap
The atmosphere, the sights, the sounds … one match and you’ll know you made the right decision. Our supporters (that’s you!) help make CenturyLink Field the best place to catch an MLS match and your Sounders will be the first ones to tell you that.
