July 14, 2008
Single game tickets for all 2008 home games will go on sale Monday, July 21. Tickets can be ordered by calling 847-491-CATS, visiting the Wildcats' online ticket office, or calling Ticketmaster. They may also be purchased in person at the Ryan Field Ticket Office at 1501 Central Street in Evanston.
Single-game ticket prices are $35 for the three non-conference games (Syracuse, Southern Illinois, and Ohio) and $50 for the four Big Ten games (Michigan State, Purdue, Ohio State, and Illinois). Northwestern will again sell reduced-price end zone seats, offering $25 seats for the three non-conference games, and $35 seats for Michigan State, Purdue and Illinois only. No reduced-price seats will be sold for the Ohio State game.
For fans planning to attend multiple home games, the best deal is to purchase season tickets ($114 to $228) or one of three three-pack plans. The three-packs sell from $100 to $120, and fans are invited to several exclusive VIP events throughout the year. Northwestern is also selling a family plan package ($420), which includes two adult and three youth season tickets -- a savings of almost $1,000 off the single-game ticket price.
Group Ticket Information: For groups of 50 or more, they can purchase sideline seats at half-price ... only $18 for non-conference and $25 for conference. NOTE: Group rate not available for the Nov. 8 Ohio State game. Group ticket benefits include: reserved block seating, group message on the scoreboard, exclusive group merchandise drawings, and five gameday programs. Group tickets must be purchased in advance of gameday.
Gameday Traditions: Wildcat Alley opens two hours before every home game. This is the pregame fan fest located just steps north of Ryan Field. Fans can enjoy food, games, entertainment, music, face-painting and much more. Admission is free. Wildcat Alley is made possible with the support of Northwestern Athletics and Goose Island Pub.
Walk With Us: In honor of the late Coach Randy Walker, we ask that you line Walker Way to greet the football team when they arrive at Ryan Field. Walk With Us begins approximately two-and-a-half hours before kickoff.
