The team will kick off its season on March 6 against the Whitecaps FC, at BC Place, in Vancouver, at 5:30pm ET (RDS, TSN) and will then play its home opener on Saturday March 12, at the Olympic Stadium (time to be determined) against the regular season defending champions New York Red Bulls.

The team will then play in Dallas on March 19 and in Seattle on April 2, before its second and last game at the Olympic Stadium on Saturday, April 9 versus Columbus, the team which beat the Impact in the Eastern Conference Semi-final.

The Impact will play the first of 15 games at Stade Saputo against its great rivals Toronto FC, on Saturday, April 23.

"The season will kick off with great matchups against important rivals," said Impact executive vice-president Richard Legendre. "We like the schedule which is well balanced during the year compared to 2015, notably how home games were spread."

The team will play 22 games on Saturday and seven on Sunday for a total of 29 games on weekend days, as well as five midweek games on Wednesday.
