It is time again to begin marking your calendars for the next year! MLS revealed the full slate of games on Thursday for the 2025 season. FC Dallas will begin next season on the road against Texas Derby rivals Houston Dynamo on Saturday, February 22.

Two weeks later, FC Dallas will have its home debut on Saturday, March 8 against Brimstone Cup rivals Chicago Fire.

Below is the full schedule:


Schedule Notes:

July 4 - A Friday, July 4 game this year. This time, conference rivals Minnesota come to town for the annual fireworks showdown.

Copa Tejas - Yeah, Copa Tejas is all over the damn place this year. We have the two Houston games early on in the season, while the Austin games aren't until the late summer/early fall. Honestly, it is a massive improvement over last year's schedule, which often saw the three teams play one another in back-to-back weeks.

Return of the Brimstone Cup - As much as I don't think this is a rivalry anymore, I know the fan groups are excited about this matchup on the schedule again.

Limited games against Eastern Conference teams—Now that the league has an even 30 clubs, the number of games against the other conference continues to shrink. FC Dallas will host NYCFC, Philadelphia and Chicago and play on the road at Atlanta, Miami and Cincinnati.

New kids on the block- Speaking of club number 30, San Diego FC will host FC Dallas in their first-ever meeting in May before coming to Frisco in late June.

Mostly Saturdays—Dallas plays 28 matches on Saturdays, 14 of them at Toyota Stadium. FCD will play three matches on Wednesdays, two on Fridays, and one on Sundays.
