It’s our first home match of the season and we can’t wait to be back at Children’s Mercy Park with you! The first 75 Cauldron Members renewed for 2025 will receive a commemorative Mardi Gras Medallion necklace. We will also have other beaded necklaces available while they last.
We will have a keg on tap! We’ll also have some other “winter warmer” libations for you…and a Mardi Gras Party would not be complete without Hurricane cocktails.
Remember, we’ve never lost a tailgate…and the team is undefeated in 2025 MLS play as well!
3:30pm – Tailgate Begins (1 Extra Hour – Enter Through France Family Drive on the South side of the Stadium)
5:30pm – Budweiser Brew House Opens
6:00pm – Seats Open
7:30pm – Kick Off
As always we are proud to partner with local Kansas City breweries and distilleries!
We’ll have a wide selection of local alcohol (including local craft beers) & non-alcoholic drinks available.
As always the tailgate drinks are an included benefit for Cauldron Members and only a $10 donation for non-members.
We’ll be setup in our usual spot in the White Lot.
Indoor tailgates are for current Cauldron Members only. Guest donations cannot be purchased, but you may purchase your 2025 Cauldron Membership with your phone and show us the receipt for your purchase, if you forgot to purchase it in advance.
If you have not yet picked up your membership card, you can do so during any of our tailgates. For those who purchased their 2025 KC Cauldron Membership by January 25th, the 2025 Membership scarves will be available at the Season Kickoff Party and the first five (5) outdoor tailgates. After that, the remaining scarves will be mailed to the address associated with your membership.
The BBH Tailgates open 30 minutes early for Cauldron Members, have your membership card out and ready to go.
You can bring in an empty soft sided bottle that does not exceed 20 oz. and fill it once inside the stadium
In all stadiums around the MLS Supporters Groups are being reminded that we need to follow the Fan Code of Conduct and have good sportsmanship before, during, and after the match.
Let’s remember that the mission of The Cauldron is, and always will be, to support Sporting KC. All Cauldron Members and Affiliated ISG’s are reminded to follow the Cauldron Code of Conduct.
Until last year, CMP has had a “no flags during game play” rule that was in place since the stadium opened. Last year Sporting allowed Flags during game play in Section 9, Rows 8-12. We are working with Sporting to continue this for the 2024 year. It is an evolving project/conversation with the team, so expect to hear more about this throughout the season.
