Colorado Rapids 2026 MLS Regular Season Schedule: Dates, Times, Venue, TV.

Colorado Rapids head into 2026 with three big notes:

They’re celebrating the 30th anniversary of their first MLS home match, hosting Inter Miami on April 18. A new head coach is coming after parting ways with Chris Armas, so the club will be in a transition phase. The front office is stable through 2026, which helps them rebuild without chaos.

Expect a season where they’re competitive, maybe fighting for a playoff spot, but needing strong signings to break into the top tier. The Western Conference won’t give them any freebies, but a smart coach hire could tilt things their way.

This kind of season often becomes a hinge point for a club’s identity, so 2026 might tell us which version of the Rapids shows up for the decade ahead.
