The regular season began on February 26 and concluded on October 9. The playoffs began on October 15 and concluded with MLS Cup 2022 on November 5, fifteen days prior to the start of the 2022 FIFA World Cup. [1] New York City FC entered the season as defending champions, having defeated the Portland Timbers in MLS Cup 2021, while the New England Revolution entered the season as the reigning Supporters' Shield winners. Western Conference regular season and playoff champions, Los Angeles FC won their second Supporters' Shield and their first MLS Cup, defeating the Eastern Conference regular season and playoff champions, the Philadelphia Union, in a penalty shoot-out.

A total of 476 matches were played over the course of the regular season and drew an average attendance of 21,033. Total attendance reached a record 10 million, but most teams in the league saw a decline in attendance since the 2019 season. [2] [3] In addition, this was the first season where all stadiums were open to full capacity since the 2019 season.
