New York City FC has today announced a series of Homecoming Week events which will bring together the whole NYCFC Fam in the lead into our 2020 MLS Home Opener, presented by Etihad Airways. Before Ronny Deila’s Boys in Blue take on FC Dallas on Saturday, March 14, we’re hosting a week-long lineup of events for all New Yorkers—from kids and families to local communities and our City Members. Each Homecoming Week event will give fans the opportunity to rally together in support of the team and welcome the squad back to the five boroughs.

NYCFC pub partners – Bar 43 and Miller’s Ale House – will host watch parties across the City as the Boys in Blue take on Toronto FC at BMO Field. NYCFC partners – Heineken, Captain Morgan and El Jimador –will support programming.
Youth Soccer Clinic – Sunday, March 8 at 5pm
NYCFC will team up with Brooklyn-based indoor soccer field complex, Socceroof, to host a youth clinic at 5pm. The clinic has sold out entirely; registration is now closed.
NYCFC Shorts at Nitehawk Cinema, Prospect Park – Monday, March 9 at 7pm
The NYCFC Shorts screening at Nitehawk Prospect Park will give City Members a preview of the Club’s forthcoming bi-weekly NYCFC YouTube series. To lead into Saturday’s Home Opener, the Club will screen the first five episodes of this new, season-long, fly-on-the-wall series which turns the camera away from the pitch and onto some of the people who make up the NYCFC Family. After the screening, the Club will host a Q&A in the theater, featuring some of the stars of the first batch of episodes. This is a City Members only event, register, here.
