Philly Leader

The Philadelphia Union is set to play against Orlando City SC on April 5, 2025, at Subaru Park, with the match kicking off at 7:30 PM ET. This evening's event is dubbed "Fireworks Night," presented by Coors Light, with a fireworks display scheduled to take place ten minutes after the match ends. The pyrotechnics will be launched from the Delaware River, allowing spectators to enjoy the show without leaving their seats.

Fans planning to attend should note that all parking lots will open at 2:30 PM ET. The Union recommends purchasing parking passes in advance to secure a spot and reduce waiting time. They also provide maps for guidance on their website.

On arrival, visitors should stop by the Philadelphia Union Youth and WSFS Bank Sportsplex tents at the Plaza. Activities and games for all age groups will be available, along with an opportunity to win free tickets to a future Union match. Additionally, a giant Adirondack chair, part of the Subaru Plaza features, offers fans the chance to take photographs and potentially be showcased on an online fan wall.

A major upgrade to the stadium's sound system has been completed, replacing all original speakers and adding new ones at the gates. Diversified, the company responsible for this installation, aims to provide improved audio quality akin to that used in prominent sports stadiums such as Lincoln Financial Field.

Located near the Sons of Ben Tailgate lots is the ‘Dogfish Head Bar at Union Yards,’ featuring 20 beers on tap and a wide variety of other beverages. Union Yards will be open from 4:30 PM to 10:30 PM, with special happy hour prices available for the first hour.

All stadium gates will open at 6 PM, and updated concession options can be found throughout Subaru Park. Available food includes items from Colbie's, Primo Hoagies, Cooper Cheese, and others.

Subaru Park maintains its status as a zero-landfill venue, an initiative that began in 2021. By reducing, reusing, and recycling over 90% of its waste, the stadium converts remaining trash into energy, thus contributing to environmental sustainability.

The match broadcast will be available on MLS Season on Apple TV, and fans can listen on the 97.5 The Fanatic app and website.
