March 12, 2020 - Major League Soccer (MLS)
Chicago Fire FC News Release
Major League Soccer has suspended match play for 30 days, effective immediately, as the league continues to assess the impact of COVID-19 with its medical task force and public health officials. This decision includes the Fire's homecoming match at Soldier Field on March 21.
All tickets already purchased for March 21 will be honored for the rescheduled date. The Fire will work with ticket holders on appropriate credits or refunds for this and any other games that may be affected and an email will be sent to all season ticket holders from their Account Representative.
"We all share in the health and well-being of our community," said Fire President Nelson RodrÃÂguez. "We will continue regular dialogue with all city, state, national and league authorities on issues relating to COVID-19 and will provide fans and partners updates accordingly."
