Watch every match on MLS Season Pass
All of the action is back on MLS Season Pass on the Apple TV app, after a record-breaking first year of a ten-year relationship with Apple.
There are no bans and the MLS Season Pass is accessible in over 100 countries and regions. Through the Apple TV app on Apple devices, smart TVs, streaming devices, set-top boxes, game consoles, and online at tv.apple.com, fans can watch every Major League Soccer game as well as in-depth coverage and analysis.

Since MLS Season Pass and Apple TV+ are independent services, individuals who have Apple TV+ will still require an MLS Season Pass membership in order to view the whole game schedule, while those who do not have Apple TV+ can still sign up for MLS Season Pass without requiring an Apple TV+ subscription in its entirety.
A few MLS games will also air on the FOX family of networks in the United States (a total of 34 games), and on TSN and RDS in Canada (one weekly match showcasing an MLS Canadian team).
