Ohio State announced it plans to debut a new section of field-level premium seating along the south end zone of Ohio Stadium in a press release on Tuesday.
The new change will feature nine field-level suites with 12-person capacities and 400 chairback seats located on top of the suites.
“We’re proud to introduce a premium seating area on the field level in the south end zone of Ohio Stadium – an investment that reflects our deep commitment to enhancing the fan experience,” Athletic Director Ross Bjork said in a press release. “This addition is designed for passionate members of Buckeye Nation, bringing greater comfort, improved access to the field level, and a wider range of seating options to better serve even more fans.
Bjork continued saying: “It also marks a small key step in the ongoing modernization of Ohio Stadium – ensuring this iconic and wonderful venue continues to evolve while honoring the traditions that makes it so special. We’re dedicated to making every visit to the ’Shoe unforgettable, and this enhancement is another meaningful stride toward delivering the best possible game day experience.”
The 400 premium chairback seats, which are priced at $6,000, will also include admission to the new 1922 Club. The 1922 club, which will feature all-inclusive food, beer and wine will open in time for the 2026 season, according to the release. The addition of premium-level seating means the band will move back to the north end of the stadium, where it was before 2001.
