The Louisville Kings are an upcoming professional American football team based in Louisville, Kentucky. The Kings compete in the United Football League (UFL). The team was founded in 2026 by current owners and operators by Alpha Acquico, controlled by actor Dwayne Johnson, and Fox Corporation. The Kings will play their home games at Lynn Family Stadium, in Louisville, Kentucky.
Lynn Family Stadium is the smallest stadium in the UFL, with most others having a capacity of at least 20,000 spectators. Repole had specifically sought out the stadium for a more intimate atmosphere and remarked that if he had been required to use L&N Federal Credit Union Stadium, the much larger football stadium in the city, he would have not brought a team there.
Eric Wood, the Buffalo Bills former offensive lineman and current radio color analyst, was named the team's first community ambassador.
The market is also heavily influenced by the collegiate teams from the University of Kentucky and the University of Louisville.
The Kings have had the strongest demand for ticket sales of the three newly relocated teams for the 2026 season. Within a month of the announcement, a supporters group, the Kings' Court, had been established and was seeking official recognition.
