St. Louis City SC is making Energizer Park the epicenter of soccer in St. Louis by bringing the excitement home with the CITY SC Soccer Celebration, a series of free watch party celebrations for the St. Louis region to experience the global tournament together at the stadium. Part of the Summer of Soccer Presented by Purina, the festival-style parties will be a celebration of St. Louis and feature live music; special guest appearances including former U.S. Men’s National Team (USMNT) standout Brad Davis, CITY SC’s Sporting Director Corey Wray and CITY SC first team players; local food and drink; family-friendly games and activities; and live viewings of USMNT group stage matches. The party starts at 5:00 PM, with live, pre-match entertainment from to-be-announced bands and DJ. From 5:00-7:00 PM on the plaza’s grassy knoll, CITY Futures community coaches will lead kids in soccer-skills activities as part of CITY SC’s “40 Days of Soccer” tournament-long community initiative. The USMNT kick off its tournament run at 8:00 PM, with the match broadcast live across five large screens on the plaza. Before kickoff and at halftime, fans will hear exclusive match analysis and perspectives on this year’s tournament from St. Louis native Davis, who competed in the 2014 edition of the tournament, former World Cup broadcaster “Mr. Soccer” Bill McDermott, Wray, and to-be-announced CITY SC first team players. Photo opportunities and autographs also will be available. Steve’s Hot Dogs and food and beverages will be available for purchase. Fans will be able to enjoy live trivia with prizes, giveaways including customizable U.S. Soccer/Purina pet bandanas and Michelob ULTRA T-shirts (ages 21+), sponsor activations including BJC HealthCare, and more. No tickets are required for the free Soccer Celebration on Lou Fusz Plaza. For the USMNT’s final two group-stage matches, the Soccer Celebrations will move inside Energizer Park to ULTRA Club, where fans can watch the USMNT in action from one of the stadium’s premier event spaces with views overlooking the pitch. In addition to live screenings of the USMNT matches, fans will get an in-depth analysis of tournament action thus far with a Q&A with special guests Davis and McDermott on June 19, and to-be-announced CITY SC first team players and staff on June 25. Photo opportunities and autographs will be available. At both ULTRA Club Soccer Celebrations, all fans will be able to head to the stadium’s food and beverage options, including Steve’s Hot Dogs, and enjoy live music and entertainment.
