Columbus Crew History
The Columbus Crew holds the distinction of being introduced in 1994 as the first of 10 inaugural MLS clubs. In 1999, the club further etched its place in American sports history when it played its first game at the former Historic Crew Stadium, the country's first major-league stadium built specifically for soccer.
On the pitch, the team's first trophy came in 2002, when the Black & Gold won the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup. The Crew's first MLS Cup trophy came in 2008 with the team also securing the Supporters' Shield that season led by Argentine midfielder Guillermo Barros Schelotto. The midfielder won the league's MVP award in 2008, and he wrapped things up that season by assisting on all three of the Crew's goals in their victory over the New York Red Bulls in the MLS Cup final. The Crew followed that up by winning the Supporters' Shield in 2009.
In the 2020 season, the club focused on competing globally with the signing of players like Lucas Zelarayan and Darlington Nagbe to add quality, and coupled with veteran talent like Gyasi Zardes team captain Jonathan Mensah, the Crew took home their second-ever MLS Cup trophy. Zelarayan, who had been named the 2020 MLS Newcomer of the Year, registered two goals and one assist against Seattle Sounders FC 3-0, also securing 2020 MLS Cup MVP honors. In 2023, Columbus hoisted the MLS Cup for a third time behind an MVP performance by forward Cucho Hernández.

Columbus Crew at Lower.com Field
The 2022 MLS season marked the first full season for the Crew at Lower.com Field - a dynamic and new soccer-specific stadium in the heart of Columbus in the Astor Park neighborhood.
In 2021, the Black & Gold moved into Lower.com Field, which has a capacity for 20,371 supporters and includes seats that are as much as 28 feet closer to the pitch than any of the seats at Historic Crew Stadium. A defining feature of the stadium is a 220,000 square-foot canopy that covers all supporters during the match, providing shelter from weather conditions throughout the season. The New Nordecke at Lower.com Field is located on the north end of the stadium and is the second-largest supporters section in MLS, with standing-only capacity for 3,364 supporters.
The Columbus Crew’s 2024 regular season kicks off in February at home as the Crew face off against Atlanta United FC. Columbus plays their final match of the regular season at Red Bull Arena in Harrison, New Jersey against Eastern Conference opponents the New York Red Bulls. Here’s a list of key matches to keep an eye on:
Tickets for the 2024 regular season can be purchased on Ticketmaster, the Official Ticket Marketplace of the Columbus Crew.
The Columbus Crew have made four appearances in the MLS Cup championship match, and have won three times (in 2008, 2020 and 2023).
The Columbus Crew compete at the Lower.com Field in Columbus, Ohio. The seating map for Lower.com Field can be viewed here.
Excellent stadium great team. I had to park a half mile away
I love columbus crew games. They are entertaining and fun. However dynamic pricing leaves a sour taste. Its tough to justify spending that much on a game when the hidden costs ( drinks, parking, food…) easily adds another $150-$200 a game. Before dynamic pricing it was ok. Now it just feels like a greedy executive is trying to squeeze every last dollar from me.
The game was exciting and atmosphere great. Entrance and parking for event smooth.
First time at the stadium and it was as good as advertised. Great view from anywhere in the stadium. The Crew played lights out. Planning on going again this season.
The atmosphere was great and the game was well played by the Crew. A 3-0 victory over your rival can't be topped.
I was home for a family reunion and bought tics to the Crew/SL game on 7/23. Admittedly I didn't realize it was a non-league - League Cup game. While in a strange way it was "fun"it was hard to believe they didn't just cancel the game that finally kicked off at 11:15pm (scheduled for 7:30pm) due to weather/storms/lightening. We stayed and got to my brothers house at 2:30am. In the future come up with better policies please and just cancel games like these.
The storm held the game up until 11pm on a Sunday with no compensation for fans. I had to leave before it ever started, so I basically flushed $50 down the drain
The game was delayed for 4 hours which was ridiculous. Not Ticketmaster fault !!!
There was a 4 hour delay due to severe weather. People with families/children could not stay that late for the game. Consideration should be given to those attending who had to leave early. Young children cannot stay up that late. It's not fair to the fans or the players to wait so long. Fans should receive a credit for a future game at least.
Game was delayed about 5 hours. Yep FIVE HOURS due to severe weather and ticketmaster won’t issue a refund. Sorry my 10 year old and I didn’t care to sit through a torrential downpour until 11:30pm to watch a soccer game. Will never attempt this again.
