As the world’s game takes over our nation, Brooklyn FC’s summer-long celebration supports the borough’s vibrant soccer community with special themed matchdays, a pop-up soccer bar, and tickets starting at $16
This summer, soccer will take over our nation, our city, and our borough, and Brooklyn FC will be right in the thick of it.
Anchored by a slate of special matchdays, cultural events, and global soccer celebrations, Brooklyn FC’s “Summer of Soccer” will be a driving force for Brooklyn’s soccer party this summer from Memorial Day to Labor Day.
And unlike some other soccer events, BKFC’s matches won’t break the bank. A special “Summer of Soccer” ticket price means fans can enjoy pro soccer in the borough starting at $13.50.
