STANFORD, Calif. – As Cardinal fans return to Stanford Stadium for the 2022 season, they can expect several changes to improve the fan experience.
RETURN TO NORMAL ENTRY PROTOCOLS
Fans entering Stanford Stadium will not require proof of COVID-19 vaccination or negative test. Stanford’s clear bag policy and use of metal detectors will continue to be in place to provide a safe gameday environment at Stanford Stadium. Stanford Athletics plans to pilot new screening equipment at select home games during the 2022 season. Visit GoStanford.com/AllClear for more details.
PARKING LOT OPENING TIMES
Stanford Athletics will standardize parking lot opening times for the 2022 season. All gameday parking lots will open five hours prior to kickoff with the exception of Lot 2, which opens at 6 AM for pass holders.
CASHLESS CONCESSIONS AND PARKING
To provide the safest and most convenient experience for fans, Stanford Stadium is going cashless in several new ways. Gameday parking transactions in general lots will be cashless, and all fixed concessions stands inside the stadium have transitioned to cashless purchasing (Apple Pay or credit or debit card only). Fans can simply approach an ordering tablet, tap the items to purchase and pay with a smartphone or credit or debit card. Fans may use cash to purchase prepaid concessions cards at a table on the concourse behind Section 101, while Cardinal Dollars can be purchased at sections 103, 113, 125 and 133. Additionally, ‘Between Play’ grab-and-go stations have been added at sections 108, 118, 127 and 211, while fans can now enjoy shrimp tacos at section 112.
NEW FAN-FEST LOCATION
Fan-Fest will return to the hammer throw area at Cobb Track and Angell Field, steps away from Stanford Stadium. Fan-Fest will offer Smoking Pig BBQ and food truck options. Fan-Fest will offer a variety of programming throughout the season like Coaches’ Chalk Talk, live music, magicians, and many other children and family-friendly activities.
Wi-Fi UPGRADE
Stanford Athletics installed a new Wi-Fi system within Stanford Stadium prior to the 2021 season, allowing fans to enjoy a more connected gameday experience. The new Wi-Fi configuration, which more than doubles the access points at Stanford Stadium, will allow fans to access mobile ticketing, leverage the Stanford Athletics App, share their experiences on social media, and access real-time statistics and commentary.
