Minnesota Aurora dropped their new kit for the 2026 season today and just like previous seasons it is an absolute banger of a kit. The kit was designed in collaboration with the Minneapolis Institute of Art along with Lindsay Nohl, a local Twin Cities artist.
The new kit features the traditional blue front that we've seen pretty much every year on at least one Aurora kit. On that is a darking blue with layering of plants native to Minnesota, including the lady slipper (Cypripedium reginae) Minnesota's state flower. It then has stars in the same dark blue shade near the top, with an orange collar.
Introducing Aurora’s 2026 season jersey, created with the Minneapolis Institute of Art and artist Lindsay Nohl. Inspired by lupine and wild rice, the Flora Kit blends art, sport, and community into a wearable story. Presented by Allina Health.

The kit will be available for purchase tomorrow from Minnesota Aurora's web shop and for purchase at tomorrow's launch celebration in Eagan. That event will feature the kit, food trucks, and other activities, games, and prizes.
But that's not the only Aurora news that's dropped this year as the club has signed four players ahead of the 2026 season. Defender Jelena Zbiljic, goalkeeper Taylor Kane, and midfielder Angela Gutierrez all return for their fifth season with Aurora. Mexican U23 centre-back Talia Coury from Idaho State was also been signed for her first year with Aurora.
Minnesota Aurora kicks off their fifth season on 9 May with an away friendly at Kansas City Current II. On 15 May Aurora returns home for another friendly against a to be named opponent and kick off their season the following week against Rochester FC on 21 May.
