Summary

We're SO EXCITED to announce that we are officially one of Atlanta United's Community Partners! We got to go to the "Always Rising" Kit Launch on Saturday night to see the brand new kit drop and it was EPIC - we are so fired up for this season! Tune in to hear about the kit (and the Easter Eggs hidden in the design), what's in store this season and how to kick it off the right way with other fans & families at the Block Party! ABOUT THE 2024-2025 RESURGENS KIT: Named after Atlanta’s motto, the Resurgens Kit is inspired by the history of the city and features design elements from the city’s seal and flag. The Resurgens Kit has a light blue base with a Phoenix design that frames the center. The mythical bird, also displayed on the city’s seal, symbolizes Atlanta’s history of rebuilding and reinventing itself. The kit features dark blue accents with a yellow trim, the same colors which appear on the city’s official flag. Blue is a nod to the rebirth and renewal of Atlanta, while yellow represents the city’s vibrant history and identity. The city of Atlanta’s crest rests on the back under the collar, featuring the moniker Resurgens and the years 1847 and 1865, the year the city was incorporated and the year it was rebuilt from ashes, respectively. For the eighth consecutive season, American Family Insurance remains as the centerpiece partner for the club’s First Team kits. Piedmont Healthcare, the club’s Official Adult Healthcare Partner, continues as a sleeve sponsor for Atlanta United and the primary kit sponsor for ATL UTD 2. You can get your kit, here! CELEBRATE THE SEASON OPENER AT THE ATLANTA UNITED BLOCK PARTY: Watch the season opener opener - the away game Columbus Crew - with other ATL UTD fans on Sat. 2/24 from 12-6PM at Sweet Water Brewery! This is a family friendly event; tickets are $5, children under 12 are free. Get your tickets at atlutd.com. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
