The 2023 Los Angeles FC season was the club's sixth season in Major League Soccer, the top tier of the American soccer pyramid. LAFC plays its home matches at BMO Stadium in the Exposition Park neighborhood of Los Angeles, California. The venue was renamed prior to the start of the season.[2]

LAFC finished as runners-up in MLS Cup 2023 to the Columbus Crew[3] and the CONCACAF Champions League to Club León.[4] The team traveled over 63,000 miles (101,000 km) over the course of the season and played 53 matches—a record for an MLS team during a single year.[5]
