PHOTOS: St. Louis celebrates Battlehawks’ 2025 home opener

ST. LOUIS – Spring football is back in St. Louis! The UFL’s St. Louis Battlehawks return for their 2025 home opener, and fans have arrived to Downtown St. Louis in full force.

Festivities and celebrations began well before kickoff. Tailgates began in the early afternoon, including the team’s main tailgate party at Baer Plaza, just outside the Dome At America’s Center.

The Battlehawks packed just above 40,000 fans at last year’s home opener. It remains to be seen how close Sunday will come to that attendance figure.

Sunday’s game will kick off at 5:30 p.m. and FS1 will carry the live game broadcast.

Check out the photos in the slideshow below and watch FOX 2 News at 9 and 10, in addition to Sports Final, for the latest coverage of the Battlehawks.
