LOS ANGELES, CA. (April 14, 2021) - The Premier Lacrosse League (PLL) powered by Ticketmaster announced today its locations, venues, dates, and matchups for the entire 2021 season. From Opening Weekend on June 4th through the PLL Championship on September 19th, the PLL will host game weekends in 11 major market cities across the country, including an All-Star weekend and a three-weekend playoff structure.

“We could not be more excited to welcome fans back to PLL games this summer,” says CEO and Co-Founder Mike Rabil. “We have been working diligently with our venue partners and the PLL’s committee of medical professionals to ensure a safe return for fans, players and staff. After executing a successful bubble season in 2020, with zero positive cases on site, we are confident we can proceed with a tour-based season while maintaining proper COVID protocol.” 

In conjunction with its 2021 season announcement, starting today through April 21st, the PLL will run a public presale with a 20% discount on all available tickets for its first five game weekends in Boston, Atlanta, Baltimore, Long Island, and Minneapolis. The PLL will offer a similar presale and on-sale with the remaining six locations at a later date to be announced (San Jose, Colorado Springs, Albany, Salt Lake City, Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C.).

“The front office, coaches and players are fired up and ready to play,” says PLL Co-Founder and Cannons Lacrosse Club midfielder Paul Rabil. “Our inaugural season in 2019 introduced a new version of professional lacrosse to the world, and we only grew interest during our 2020 Championship Series on NBC. Heading into 2021, competing at both new and familiar venues, coupled by an offseason merger with Major League Lacrosse, we’re anticipating greater momentum and aggregate attention to the fastest game on two feet.”

The PLL will work with its venue partners to maintain compliance with local and state governance regarding health and safety best practices. This will include standardized weekend-to-weekend health and safety measures, including but not limited to: seating pods, social distancing, enhanced venue cleaning, mobile ticketing, hand sanitation stations, staff and attendee mask requirements. Similar to the 2020 season, the PLL will be working with a committee of medical professionals to develop health and safety protocols for all players, staff and fans. 

The entire 2021 PLL season will be viewable on the NBCU family of networks, with all games available to stream live and on-demand on Peacock. The 2021 season will feature more than half of its games on NBC and NBCSN, with a full broadcast schedule to be announced at a later date.
