As an added bonus, a free subscription to the MLS Season Pass is included in MLS clubs' full-season ticket packages. Additionally, some games will be streamed for free on the Apple TV app, including all games from the opening weekend "MLS is Back." The MLS Season Pass will stream all MLS and Leagues Cup games, as well as most MLS Next Pro and MLS NEXT games. There are no blackouts or regional restrictions, and the service will be available in more than 100 countries at launch. Each game will be accompanied by a pre- and post-show. The service will also offer live coverage on game days. Games can be rewatched on demand afterward, and other content such as highlight packages will also be available.

The Canadian teams' games will also be broadcast in French. The MLS Season Pass can be accessed via the Apple TV app, which is available on Apple devices, smart TVs, PlayStation, Xbox, set-top boxes such as Comcast Xfinity and more. You can also watch TV via a web browser at tv.apple.com. The Apple TV app will also be released for Windows PCs next year. However, an Android app is not planned. The contract between Apple and the MLS runs for ten years, until 2032. The partnership includes extensive marketing measures, such as the Apple TV logo on the jerseys of all teams. Apple will pay at least $250 million per year for the streaming rights, with additional revenue flowing to the league if target subscriber numbers are reached. (Image: Apple)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
