Chicago Fire FC has announced a new initiative in partnership with the Illinois Secretary of State to offer official Chicago Fire FC license plates for fans. The club will cover the $25 application fee for the first 2,000 Illinois drivers who apply.

Dan Moriarty, Chief Marketing Officer for Chicago Fire FC, stated, "This is more than a license plate – it’s a badge of pride. We’re excited to give our fans a new way to represent the Fire and show their love for the Club wherever they drive – whether to a match or the grocery store."

Illinois residents with valid driver’s licenses can apply by completing an online form at https://chicagofirefc.jotform.com/251677308891973. No payment is required at this stage. Applicants will later receive instructions from the state on how to complete their purchase.

The announcement comes as Chicago Fire FC remains in contention for the MLS playoffs, currently ranked ninth in the Eastern Conference with 48 points and three regular season matches left. Upcoming games include home and away fixtures against Toronto FC, Inter Miami, and New England Revolution. Tickets for Fan Appreciation Night are available at chicagofirefc.com.

The club noted that submitting an application does not guarantee receipt of a license plate. Production will begin after 2,000 applications have been collected, and applicants will be notified about next steps at that time.

Founded in 1997, Chicago Fire FC competes in Major League Soccer and plays its home matches at Soldier Field. The club has won six major domestic titles since its inception and supports youth development through its academy system and community initiatives via the Chicago Fire Foundation.
