Single‑game tickets for the Northwestern Wildcats’ two primetime home matchups in September are now on sale, giving fans the chance to catch the team’s early‑season push at Northwestern Medicine Field.
The season opens with a showdown against South Dakota State on September 5 at 7 p.m. CT, followed by a clash with Colorado on September 19 at 6:30 p.m. CT. Both games will be played at Martin Stadium in Evanston, Illinois, the temporary home of the Wildcats while the new Ryan Field is being completed.
A milestone season for Northwestern football
The remaining five home games will be staged at the brand‑new Ryan Field, including the inaugural contest against Penn State on October 2 at 7 p.m. CT. That opening game marks the 100th anniversary of the original stadium’s first football game in 1926, adding a historic layer to the excitement.
Season tickets for the new Ryan Field go on sale on August 4, and single‑game tickets will follow shortly after. Fans can secure their seats through NUSports.com/Tickets or by calling the ticket sales line at 888‑467‑8775.
More details on seating options and the stadium’s layout are available at NewRyanField.com, where the university’s athletics department also posts the full schedule and additional ticket information.
The athletics department urges supporters to act quickly, as demand for the primetime slots is expected to be high.
