The 2023 season was the inaugural season for St. Louis City SC. It is the club's first season in existence, their first in the top-tier of American soccer, and their first season in Major League Soccer. During the regular season, City SC became the first expansion team to win its conference, finishing first in the Western Conference, and earned the most wins; the team fell short of the all-time points record for an expansion team set by Los Angeles FC in 2018.[2] Head coach Bradley Carnell used 32 different starting lineups during the regular season's 34 matches.[3]

2023 was the first year since 1977 that a top division club from Greater St. Louis played in the first tier of U.S. soccer, the last being the St. Louis Stars who played in the North American Soccer League from 1968 until 1977, and the old National Professional Soccer League in 1967.

Outside of MLS play, St. Louis City SC also participated in the U.S. Open Cup and the 2023 Leagues Cup.
