Messi Is Coming to Baltimore — Park Smart for D.C. United vs. Inter Miami CF at M&T Bank Stadium
March 7, 2026 | Kickoff: 4:30 PM ET
One of the most anticipated soccer matches in Baltimore history is almost here. On Saturday, March 7, 2026, D.C. United hosts Inter Miami CF at M&T Bank Stadium in what will be the first-ever MLS regular season match at the Ravens’ home stadium — and Lionel Messi is expected to be on the pitch.
The match was moved from D.C. United’s home at Audi Field (capacity 20,000) to M&T Bank Stadium (capacity 71,000+) to accommodate the massive demand that comes with Inter Miami’s star-studded roster. This is a genuine once-in-a-generation event for Charm City — M&T Bank Stadium has hosted international friendlies featuring Chelsea, AC Milan, Manchester City, and Liverpool, but this is something different. This is Messi, in an MLS regular-season match, right here in Baltimore.
What You Need to Know
Kickoff is at 4:30 PM ET on Saturday, March 7. The match streams exclusively on Apple TV+ at no additional cost for subscribers. Tickets are available through SeatGeek via M&T Bank Stadium’s ticketing portal.
