Section 26
Notre Dame Stadium

- Lower Level Sideline sections are home to the best views for a football game at Notre Dame Stadium. Located on the lower seating tier and between the endzones, fans will enjoy the desired sideline viewing position and can also sit near the 50 yard line in Sections 10 and 28. On the West sideline, the Home Preferred seating is located directly behind the Notre Dame sideline (Rows A-J in sections 26-30) and is the closest seating option to the home team. Conversely, visiting team fans can stay right by their team on the east sideline with seats in the Visitor Preferred areas (Rows A-J in sections 8-12). Both the Home and Visitor Preferred seats also offer chairback seating, and as the only areas with chairback seats, these tickets are always in high demand. Standard bleacher seating starts in row 18 behind these preferred sections. With designated student seating located in the numbered rows (upper portion) of Sections 29-31, seats nearby will have a louder and more energetic feel. Seats on the east sideline will see more sun during day and afternoon games, while the west sideline sections will have more shade as the day progresses thanks to the shadow cast by the Press Box.
