HAMILTON, ONT. – (November 12, 2025) — Already home to one of the most vibrant and engaging supporter environments in Canadian soccer, Forge FC announced today plans to elevate the match day experience with a pair of stadium enhancements ahead of the 2026 season — a new 360° expanded seating configuration and the introduction of Captain’s Lounge, a premium pitch-level hospitality space.
“Our fans are the heartbeat of Forge FC, and we’ve listened closely to what they’ve told us about how to make the match experience even better,” said Nicole Demers, Vice President, Business Operations, Forge FC*.* “The 360° seating and the new Captain’s Lounge are a direct response to that feedback — bringing fans closer to the action, deepening their connection to the team, and making an already electric environment even more exciting.”
