MONTREAL – The Montreal Impact announced on Tuesday that tickets to the MLS Eastern Conference Championship game against Toronto FC on Tuesday, November 22, at 8pm at the Olympic Stadium are now sold out.
The Bleu-blanc-noir thus expects a crowd of 61,004 at the Big O for this crucial match against its longtime rival. This will be the best attendance in club history, tied with the CONCACAF Champions League Final against Club América on April 29, 2015 (see top 10 attendance numbers below).
The club advises supporters to get to the Olympic Stadium early – doors open at 6pm – to avoid traffic around Olympic Park and overcrowding at the stadium’s entrance, and to use public transit. Pie-IX Blvd. will be partially closed in the northbound direction, from Pierre-de-Coubertin Ave. to Mont-Royal Ave., preventing vehicles from turning right on Sherbrooke East St. Traffic disruptions are also scheduled on Pierre-de-Coubertin Ave., between Viau St. and Pie-IX Blvd., until the end of the season.
Supporters will take part in a giant mosaic as the players come out before the national anthem and are invited to cheer the players on starting with the pregame warmup at 7:15pm – and, of course, they are encouraged to wear blue!
The Impact will look to clinch a berth to MLS Cup, scheduled for December 10 at the home of Seattle Sounders FC or Colorado Rapids (whichever club wins the Western Conference Championship).
