MLS and AE Live launches second season

AE Live today announced the launch of its second season delivering broadcast graphics for Major League Soccer (MLS).

‍

For the 2026 season, AE Live will provide remote graphics playout from MLS’s centralised production facility in Stamford, Connecticut, further strengthening the league’s consistent, scalable broadcast model. Building on the success of its inaugural season, AE Live’s scope includes two full virtual studios, enhanced data-driven storytelling, and multi-language graphics to support MLS and Apple broadcasts in multiple markets.

‍

This year, AE Live has collaborated with MLS production partner IMG, enabling seamless integration between teams in North America and IMG’s production hub in London. This approach enhances operational flexibility while maintaining the quality and reliability required for live, high-volume sports coverage.

The confirmation of another year of the AE Live and MLS relationship further reinforces AE Live’s long-term commitment to supporting premium live events with innovative, centralized, and remote-first graphics solutions.

“Entering our second season with MLS is a testament to the strength of the partnership with MLS and IMG and the performance of our on-site team,” said Paul Jamieson, GM North America and VP Creative, AE Live. “From remote graphics playout and virtual studios to multi-language delivery and the new workflows with IMG in London, this year represents a meaningful step forward in how we support world-class live sports production.”
