West Michigan soccer fans can now secure priority seat access to be at Amway Stadium from day one.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (June 3, 2026) – The countdown to professional soccer in West Michigan officially accelerates today as AC Grand Rapids launches its inaugural season ticket deposit campaign.
Starting today, fans across the region have their first opportunity to secure a priority position in line for season tickets ahead of the club’s historic MLS NEXT Pro debut in 2027.
Today’s announcement empowers fans to stake their claim in club history.
“This is a definitive moment for pro sports in West Michigan,“ ACGR co-owner David Van Andel said. “AC Grand Rapids will be something all of us can be proud of from day one — a new and exciting cultural centerpiece of downtown Grand Rapids’ continued evolution and our region’s rapid growth. The momentum is building, and we look forward to welcoming fans from across West Michigan to Amway Stadium next year.”
“AC Grand Rapids is a club, not just a team, and we are committed to inviting all of West Michigan to join us,” ACGR President Darrius Barnes said. “Placing a season ticket deposit is a commitment to our version of the game, to our community, and to a shared ambition to build a top-class professional soccer club right here in Grand Rapids. We can’t wait to see our fans flow together into Amway Stadium every week and create a loud, passionate, and exciting environment on matchdays. Today marks an important step toward making this a reality.”

Amway Stadium, located on the West Side of downtown Grand Rapids, celebrated a major construction milestone last week when it hosted its “topping out” ceremony. Civic, cultural, and club leadership attended the event as the construction crews placed the final beam.
The stadium is on schedule to open when AC Grand Rapids kicks off its inaugural season in March of 2027.
