What to look out for at Nashville SC’s Fan Appreciation Match vs. Red Bull New York

As soon as it began, Nashville SC’s regular season is almost over. Sunday afternoon’s match at GEODIS Park is the club’s final home game before the Playoffs, as well as this year’s designated Fan Appreciation Match. That means additional activities, giveaways, live entertainment and more to celebrate the best supporters in MLS! 

Here’s what to know. We’d love to see you there!

Giveaway 

Hyundai is giving out 10,000 2026 Palisade Mini Cars on the concourse near the East Team Store (section 118). The first 10,000 fans to enter GEODIS Park at all gates and premium spaces will receive a voucher to redeem their car between the final whistle and 90 minutes thereafter. See the map below for giveaway location.

The first 5,000 fans who enter GEODIS Park at all gates and premium clubs will receive a poster with this year’s team photo. GEODIS and Publix will also be handing out free mystery items as a “surprise and delight” throughout the match.

Supporters’ Shield Trophy Lift 

After one of the most dominant seasons in MLS history, Nashville officially clinched the Supporters’ Shield title last weekend at CF Montréal. The trophy is awarded annually to the best club in the regular season, ensuring the overall No. 1 seed and home-field advantage throughout the Playoffs. 

The Boys in Gold will lift the Supporters’ Shield after the final whistle on Sunday. Stick around to celebrate the club’s second trophy with them!

Fan Fest at Publix Plaza

Plan to stay late and arrive early; fans can also enjoy a series of activities outside the stadium beginning three hours before kickoff.  

Local café The Horn will be at Fan Fest, alongside Surfside Canned Cocktails and Hattie B’s, which will sample a new collaboration with Coca-Cola of fried chicken and soda. Fans can receive free caricatures in Nashville SC jerseys courtesy of Tony’s Caricatures, write good luck messages to the team and visit several other activity booths. Nashville-based jazz fusion band Pushback and DJ Amor will offer live music in Publix Plaza.

In-stadium Activations 

In addition to the trophy lift, Fan Fest and giveaways, fans can also enjoy an elevated in-stadium program.  

The guitar riff will be performed by Gavin Fisk, the winner of this year’s annual Riff Off, while Allison Asarch, a first-string season ticket member, will sing the national anthem.  

Stadium staff will be recognized for their contributions to the club in addition to Fan of the Year recognition for three fans who have attended every match the last two seasons. 

Halftime will also play host to a kicking contest to award a road-grade 2026 Hyundai Palisade. Eight contestants will compete before kickoff to determine the final three who will participate for the grand prize.
