WHO WE ARE
The Philadelphia Union became Major League Soccer’s 16th team on February 28, 2008, and launched the inaugural season in Subaru Park in June 2010. Subaru Park is an 18,500 seat, world-class soccer specific stadium that sits beautifully along the Delaware River at the base of the Commodore Barry Bridge and is only 15 miles from downtown Philadelphia.
The club quickly earned a reputation for its competitive spirit and passionate fanbase. The Union have reached the U.S. Open Cup Final three times (2014, 2015, 2018), appeared in the MLS Cup Playoffs multiple seasons, and competed twice in the CONCACAF Champions League (2021, 2023). The team captured its first Supporters’ Shield in 2020 and then again in 2025 for having the best regular season record in MLS. In 2022, the Union were crowned Eastern Conference Champions and competed in the MLS Cup Final against LAFC.
Our brand identity – Young, Fearless, Challengers – sets us apart. We’re bold, unafraid to defy the ordinary, and committed to leading with excellence on and off the field. The name “Union” honors the Union of the Thirteen Colonies, reflecting Philadelphia’s central role in U.S. history.
