Battery Announce Home Opener at Patriots Point
The Charleston Battery on Tuesday announced the 2021 season’s home opener at Patriots Point will take place on Friday, May 14th, at 7 pm against regional rival Charlotte Independence. The club opens attendance to 50% capacity to start the 2021 season.
“We’ve been building towards this for a long time now,” said club executive chairman Rob Salvatore. “And while we were able to share a preview of what the new era of the Battery at Patriots Point will look like with a few fans last season, now that we have a date, an opponent, and the ability to open our doors, we are very excited. The anticipation and excitement will continue to build as the team trains and we prepare the stadium for the opener. We couldn’t have asked for a better opportunity to showcase the club in our new home come May 14 against a rival like Charlotte Independence.”
Tickets for the Battery’s May 14th home opener against Charlotte are now available online through SeatGeek, the club’s exclusive new ticketing provider.
Attendance will be limited to 50% stadium capacity to start the 2021 season, in accordance with state and local guidelines, with tickets available in groups of 2 to 4 fans to allow for spacing as possible.
“We’ve come a long way since the early days of the pandemic,” Battery head of community Scott Krenitski said. “We’re excited to welcome more fans to Patriots Point and give the community the chance to create a gameday atmosphere unique to this amazing city.”
The Battery’s full schedule for the 2021 season is expected to be announced in the coming weeks.
