LA Galaxy News Release


CARSON, Calif. - The LA Galaxy announced today that the club has partnered with Uber to provide dedicated transportation to and from all LA Galaxy matches at StubHub Center. The Galaxy are the first club in Major League Soccer and the first team in Los Angeles to officially partner with Uber. The LA Galaxy will kick off the 2016 MLS Regular Season at StubHub Center this Sunday, March 6, against D.C. United (7 p.m. PT, UniMás).

"We are thrilled to continue to enhance LA Galaxy fan experience at StubHub Center by making it easier to access games," said LA Galaxy President Chris Klein. "Uber will provide a safe, easy, and reliable alternative for Galaxy fans to get to and from StubHub Center."

The partnership will now provide dedicated drop off and pick up zones at StubHub Center, which are located by the main entrance gate off of Avalon Blvd. New users can receive a discount by registering through the LA Galaxy at www.uber.com/go/lagalaxy16.

"We're thrilled to help make it easier for Galaxy fans to get to and from StubHub Center safely and reliably at the push of a button," said Christopher Ballard, General Manager of Uber Southern California. "Instead of spending time circling for a parking spot or being stuck behind the wheel in post-game traffic, Galaxy fans can leave the car at home and let Uber get them back to the game."

Additionally, fans attending any event at StubHub Center will be able to use Uber to get to and from events.

"We are always improving access to StubHub Center, and partnering with Uber allows us to create an easy and accessible way for fans to attend a game," said StubHub Center General Manager Katie Pandolfo. "We look forward to providing our guests with an efficient and seamless game-day experience."

Uber offers Galaxy fans the option to leave their vehicles at home and save time entering the gates at StubHub Center. Uber also offers cashless transitions through an efficient transaction process that will drop passengers off at the StubHub Center designated zone for Uber. Fans can also share their ride details, including specific routes and estimated arrival times, with friends or family.
