Sacramento Republic FC is officially returning to Hughes Stadium.

The Indomitable Club announced it will host Orange County SC on Saturday, August 26, at the site of its first-ever match 10 years ago, which more than 20,000 fans attended. The celebratory night will be filled with giveaways, appearances from former players, special presentations, and more.

Public pre-sale begins today at 10 a.m. — with tickets starting at $10 — so make sure to head to the club’s website to sign up.

While you wait for the match, get a history lesson on Hughes Stadium, and check out the club’s new kit (that’s soccer terminology for uniforms).
