The Western Conference is one of the two Major League Soccer conferences, along with the Eastern Conference. The division of the conferences broadly follows the path of the Mississippi River from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico, with clubs on, or west of the river in the Western Conference.
As of 2025, the Western Conference contains 15 teams. The conference has produced 11 Supporters’ Shield champions and 18 MLS Cup winners in Major League Soccer’s first 29 seasons. In 2000 and 2001, the conference was referred to as the Western Division when Major League Soccer briefly reorganized into three divisions..
