This Saturday, we’re bringing Pride to the pitch.

Join us at the iconic Hinchliffe Stadium in Paterson for the inaugural NY Cosmos Pride Match—a celebration of community, identity, and unity through the beautiful game.

With the 2026 FIFA World Cup just days away, New Jersey is ready to welcome the world—and this moment reflects what makes our communities so powerful.

Huge thank you to Gus Penaranda, President & CEO of Evolvere Consulting Inc., for helping coordinate this incredible event with the New York Cosmos. We’re also grateful for the opportunity to be a proud sponsor and support something that truly puts community first.

From a custom warm-up jersey designed by Rich Tu 🎨 to honoring organizations uplifting the LGBTQ+ community and allied causes, this is more than a match—it’s a movement.

Newark is building Airport City—a bold, large‑scale development centered around Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) that will bring aviation‑related uses, housing, retail, office space, and new economic opportunities to the South Ward.
