América and Chivas meet on October 4, 2026, at 5:30 p.m. Pacific Time at the Oakland Coliseum in California. Official ticket sales are sold out. Before the friendly, a Fiesta Futbolera is scheduled to begin at 1:30 p.m. outside the stadium. The official sources consulted do not confirm a U.S. broadcast.
Date, kickoff time and venue
The Clásico de México is scheduled for October 4, 2026, at 5:30 p.m. Pacific Time at the Oakland Coliseum. Club América’s announcement confirms the date, time and stadium. The address published by the venue complex is 7000 Coliseum Way, Oakland, California 94621.
The friendly is part of Tour Rebaño 2026 and brings together two Liga MX clubs. Chivas says this will be the team’s return to the city after an absence of nearly 29 years. The rivals played at the same stadium in 1997, when Guadalajara won 3–2.
Official tickets are sold out
The Oakland Coliseum announced on September 10 that the game had sold out in less than a week. The previously announced general sales through Ticketmaster and Ticketón therefore no longer indicate guaranteed availability.
Anyone still planning to attend should be wary of promises of admission and check for changes through the event’s and stadium’s official channels. The sources do not confirm a new ticket release, a game-day box office allocation or an official waiting list. They also provide no current prices for possible resale tickets.
Fiesta Futbolera begins before the match
The announced pregame program starts at 1:30 p.m. outside the Coliseum. According to América, the Fiesta Futbolera will feature live music, food, team mascots, legends and trophies. Chivas’ release also mentions fan activities and appearances by figures associated with the club’s history.
The announcement confirms the overall program but does not provide a schedule for individual activities, a list of performers or admission rules. Because those details may change, visitors should check Club América’s official website before traveling.
Why the game is being held at the Coliseum
The friendly is also connected to the venue’s recent field conversion. Oakland Roots explains that it invested approximately $700,000 in 2025 to convert the field, previously used for baseball, and make soccer matches possible.
According to the local club, the work helped Oakland host international fixtures, including América vs Chivas. The match expands the presence of Mexican soccer in Oakland but does not count toward Liga MX points or standings.
What to check before going
The essential information is straightforward: kickoff at 5:30 p.m., the Fiesta Futbolera from 1:30 p.m. and official tickets sold out. The available releases do not confirm a U.S. television or streaming outlet, nor do they detail parking, transportation, permitted items or event-specific accessibility arrangements.
For operational guidance and possible changes, consult the Oakland Coliseum and team channels directly. Official confirmation should take priority over third-party listings, particularly for tickets and stadium access.
