Upcoming fixtures
Apple’s ten-year deal with Major League Soccer, signed in 2022 and running through the 2032 season, makes MLS Season Pass on the Apple TV app the sole legal home of every MLS match. There is no cable carriage, no other streaming service, no regional sports network with rights, and no over-the-air broadcast schedule. Every match is on Apple, in every market, with no blackouts.
What MLS Season Pass costs
| Plan | Price (2026) | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Standalone monthly | $14.99 | Cancel anytime |
| Standalone full season | $99.00 | Renews annually |
| Apple TV+ subscriber monthly | $12.99 | Requires active Apple TV+ |
| Apple TV+ subscriber full season | $79.00 | Requires active Apple TV+ |
| MLS Season Ticket holders | Included | Confirm with your club |
Apple One Premier ($37.95/mo) includes Apple TV+ and provides the discounted MLS Season Pass tier. If you already pay for Apple One, your effective MLS Season Pass cost is the discounted rate.
What is included
MLS Season Pass includes:
- Every regular-season match (out of market and in market — no blackouts)
- The entire MLS Cup Playoffs through MLS Cup
- Leagues Cup, the cross-border competition with Liga MX
- US Open Cup matches involving MLS clubs
- Concacaf Champions Cup matches involving MLS clubs
- MLS 360, the daily whip-around show with live look-ins to every match
- English and Spanish commentary on every match
- Post-match interviews, club-specific replay archives, and full-match VOD
A subset of the highest-profile matches each season — typically a Sunday Night Soccer slate — also airs on FOX or FS1 as part of MLS’s secondary US broadcast deal. Those matches remain on MLS Season Pass simultaneously; if you already have the pass, you do not need FOX to see them.
Inter Miami, Messi, and what the deal looks like in practice
The Lionel Messi era at Inter Miami compressed two seasons of attention into one streaming subscription. For US viewers, the practical effect is: a single $14.99 monthly fee gives you Inter Miami’s full schedule plus every other club’s schedule in 1080p with no rotation. That is unusual in US sports broadcasting and is the single strongest argument for the Apple deal from a viewer perspective.
How to watch on a TV
The Apple TV app runs on Apple TV 4K, every recent Roku, every recent Fire TV, every recent Chromecast with Google TV, every recent Samsung and LG smart TV from 2020 onward, every PlayStation and Xbox console from the past two generations, iPhones, iPads, Macs, and the web at tv.apple.com.
The web experience supports 1080p; the native app supports up to 4K HDR for the matches Apple produces in 4K (a growing slate each season).
What is not included
MLS Season Pass does not include:
- USMNT or USWNT matches (those are on TNT or Fox)
- Liga MX matches outside Leagues Cup (Liga MX is on TUDN/ViX)
- Lower-division US soccer (USL Championship is on ESPN+, USL League One is on YouTube)

Frequently asked
Can I watch MLS without an Apple TV+ subscription? Yes. MLS Season Pass is a separate product. You can subscribe to MLS Season Pass standalone at $14.99/month without ever subscribing to Apple TV+.
Are there blackouts? No. Every match is available in every US market.
Is there a free way to see any MLS match? A handful of matches per season are made free on the Apple TV app — typically Messi’s Inter Miami debut window matches and select playoff fixtures. Apple announces those when the schedule releases.
