The United Football League (UFL) announced on Thursday that the 2024 UFL Championship Game will be held at The Dome at America’s Center in St. Louis, Missouri, on Sunday, June 16, 2024, at 5 pm on FOX. The Dome at America’s Center is home to the St. Louis Battlehawks.

“Selecting the championship game location is more than just the stadium, but the community and the fanbase that surrounds it. This is why we are proud to bring our Championship to St. Louis – a city that has loved and embraced spring football from the start,” said UFL President and CEO Russ Brandon.

“Mayor Jones, The Dome at America’s Center staff, and the great team at Explore St. Louis have all been incredible partners, working tirelessly to support the Battlehawks and encourage the League to bring the Championship here. We couldn’t be more excited and look forward to the city’s welcome on June 16.”

The Battlehawks led the XFL in attendance with 175,121, in five home games, including a record-setting 38,310 for their home opener. St. Louis finished third place in the North Division missing the playoffs. The Dome was the former home of the St. Louis Rams, who relocated to Los Angeles after the 2015 season.

“Both the XFL and USFL had incredible Championship games last year with some of the most exciting play of the season – and I expect it to be even better this year,” said UFL Executive Vice President of Football Operations, Daryl Johnston.

“I’m so excited for our players and coaches that will have the opportunity to compete for a Championship in a setting like The Dome. Our Teams will feed off the energy and excitement that the St. Louis fans bring to the building. It will be an experience like none other for the teams lucky enough to play in the UFL Championship game.”

Last year, the XFL held its championship game in San Antonio’s Alamodome where the Arlington Renegades beat the D.C. Defenders 35-26, while the USFL held its championship game from Tom Benson’s Hall of Fame Stadium in Canton, Ohio, as the Birmingham Stallions won its second USFL Championship over the Pittsburgh Maulers 28-12.

“St. Louisans are excited to welcome the UFL championship game and tens of thousands of enthusiastic fans to our city,” said Mayor Tishaura O. Jones. “Soon, UFL fans from across the country will learn: Kaw is the law.”

The 2024 UFL season kicks off on Saturday, March 30th with the Birmingham Stallions visiting the Arlington Renegades at 1 pm on FOX. Subscribe to Fubo to watch all of the 2024 UFL Season and tickets for the game are available today on StubHub and Viagogo.
