One big weekend: a buffet dinner with the people you shared a locker room with, and a night at F.N.B. Stadium where the Riverhounds will honor the entire Spirit team, in front of a new generation of Pittsburgh soccer fans. Family and friends are welcome at the same per-person rate.
The weekend
Friday
A VIP buffet dinner and cash bar at the Riverhounds Club — the reunion's centerpiece, and the night to actually catch up with people.
Saturday
As part of game night, the Riverhounds will honor the entire Spirit team — teammates and staff recognized in front of the F.N.B. Stadium crowd.
Where to stay
The event planners have blocked rooms at three Pittsburgh hotels at discounted rates, available first come, first served. Rates apply for three days before and three days after the reunion.
All group rates expire September 8, 2026. If you are travelling in, book the room before you do anything else — the rate disappears before the RSVP deadline does.
Per night, plus applicable tax.
1978 – 1986
A founding franchise of the Major Indoor Soccer League, eight seasons at the Civic Arena, and a 32–16 team in 1983–84 that drew 8,000 a night.
