Sacramento Celebrates Landing MLS

After a long road of being passed over for a franchise several times, today Major League Soccer will awarded Sacramento the 29th team. The FC Republic will make its MLS debut in 2022 at a soon-to-be-under construction $525 million stadium in the railyards. The city will contribute/gift the developer $33 million in tax refunds, waived fees and administrative costs also known as subsidies.

The stadium is expected to include capacity for approximately 18,000 seats with expandability to 21,000 seats, including premium areas.  Capital Mall is closed down from 3rd Street to 5th Street as Sac Republic FC is setting up for a block party in celebration of the expected announcement Monday morning.
