Company profile
researched Aug 2026ALLCITY Network Inc. is a local sports media company that operates hyperlocal, city-branded digital networks staffed by teams of creators, analysts and fans who produce daily, team-specific content. Its city brands are DNVR (Denver), PHNX (Phoenix), CHGO (Chicago), PHLY (Philadelphia) and DLLS (Dallas), complemented by national products such as the 'ALL NBA Podcast'. Content spans podcasts (audio and video), YouTube, social platforms, newsletters, feature articles, analysis and news, amounting to more than 7,500 hours of original content annually across five local networks.
Beyond content, the company builds fan communities through local meetups, live watch parties, pre-game events and group outings to games, along with membership programs ("Become a Diehard") and city-specific merchandise sold through an online store organized by city, sport, collection and product type. Recent programming and partnership activity includes the daily Philadelphia show "Love Philly," the "Exciting Mics" series featuring NFL players, a tailgate experience with Philly Sports Trips at Philadelphia Eagles home games, and a strategic partnership with Kansas City's KCSN.
Business model
ALLCITY monetizes its city networks primarily through advertising and sponsorship sold to brands seeking access to local sports audiences, offering podcast ads in audio, video and embedded formats, direct and programmatic buys, entitlements and sponsorships, with support for multiple measurement and attribution models and the option to run city-specific campaigns or scale across the network. Additional consumer revenue lines include branded merchandise sold via an online store (t-shirts, sweatshirts, hats, drinkware, accessories, gift cards) and fan membership programs.
Advertising and sponsorship (podcast advertising, entitlements, integrated media packages) sold directly and programmatically, plus direct-to-consumer merchandise sales and fan membership subscriptions.

▸Full profile — market position, go-to-market, geography, history
Market position
ALLCITY positions itself between national sports media outlets, which emphasize national coverage, and traditional local/regional outlets, offering deeper team-specific, interactive and community-oriented coverage. It has stated that its Denver, Phoenix, Philadelphia and Chicago outlets are cash flow positive or approaching it, and has expanded into large sports markets.
Hyperlocal, team-specific daily coverage combined with community building (meetups, watch parties, group outings), city-specific merchandise rather than generic team products, and an advertising toolkit combining local credibility with national scale and attribution tracking.
Go-to-market
ALLCITY enters a market by launching a city-branded network and recruiting well-known local and national sports personalities to draw their existing audiences; the Dallas (DLLS) launch featured NBA insider Marc Stein and hires including Mavericks writer Tim Cato from The Athletic, Bobby Karalla from Mavs.com and radio hosts Kevin Gray and Jeff Cavanaugh, and opened with eight pre-sold advertising partners. Distribution runs across YouTube, podcast platforms, social and newsletters, extended by a partnership with broadcaster TEGNA for content promotion and TV distribution in overlapping markets, and by merchandising, events and membership offerings for fans.
Two audiences: diehard local sports fans in the cities it serves (Denver, Phoenix, Chicago, Philadelphia, Dallas), and advertisers/brands seeking local trust with national reach across sports fan audiences.
Geography
United States; headquartered/based in Denver, Colorado, with local networks in Denver, Phoenix, Chicago, Philadelphia and Dallas, plus a partnership with Kansas City's KCSN.
History
ALLCITY was launched initially in Denver, Chicago and Phoenix, and by early 2022 was raising capital from venture investors including Matchstick Ventures Fund III, whose partners knew the founders through the Colorado startup ecosystem. It later launched a national network and added Philadelphia, and in August 2024 announced a Series B round alongside its fifth market, Dallas (DLLS). Programming and partnership expansion continued through 2026 with new shows, an Eagles tailgate experience and a partnership with Kansas City's KCSN.
