Media Accreditation Applications Now Open for Leagues Cup 2024

Applications must be submitted by 7 p.m. EST, five days prior to each group stage match

The accreditation application is now open to media for Leagues Cup 2024, the first in-season club tournament in North America across all men’s professional sports. The World Cup-style competition event featuring all 47 clubs from Major League Soccer (MLS) and LIGA MX is set to begin on July 26 with the final to be played August 25, 2024.

Leagues Cup represents a monumental new chapter for North American soccer. Beginning last year, Major League Soccer and LIGA MX pause their regular seasons each summer and all 47 first division professional clubs in both leagues will compete in the official Concacaf sanctioned tournament, which will qualify the top three finishers to the Concacaf Champions Cup 2025. In 2023, MLS’ Inter Miami CF became the first-ever Leagues Cup champion.
