Tickets are $10, and parking is free in the Raynor (formerly called Stadium lot) and West Lots. Fans can enter through Gates A, B or C, beginning at Noon.

The following stadium COVID guidelines are in effect for all fans:

Required Proof of Vaccination or a Negative COVID Test:
As fans return to in-person events, vaccination is and will be the most reliable pathway for easy entry into the stadium, although proof of a negative COVID test will also be allowed.

Fans ages 12 and over must comply with one of the following options:

Present proof of completed vaccination; specifically, on the day of the event the individual must provide documentation indicating that at least 14 days have passed since the individual received the second dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna COVID-19 vaccine, or at least 14 days have passed since the individual received a single dose of Johnson & Johnson/Janssen COVID-19 vaccine.
Present proof of a negative COVID-19 PCR-type test, administered within 72 hours of the event start time.
Present proof of a negative COVID-19 antigen-type test, administered within six hours of the event start time.

Children ages 5 to 11 are required to:

Provide proof of a negative COVID-19 PCR-type test, administered within 72 hours of the event start time; or a negative COVID-19 antigen-type test, administered within six hours of the event start time.

Children ages 4 and under do not require a vaccination or a test result to enter the stadium.

There will be no pre-screening tents as there have been for football games to date, all proof of vaccination or testing will be done at the entrance to the stadium.

Acceptable Forms of Vaccination and Testing Proof:
A printed copy or a digital version (i.e.: New York State Excelsior Pass, emailed test results on your smart phone or a photo of a vaccination card) of proof of vaccination or negative test results will be accepted.

Fans must also bring a valid government issued identification to present to stadium staff. Proof of vaccination or COVID test results must match the name on a fan's identification.

Mask Requirements:
All students, faculty, staff and visitors are required to follow Syracuse University's campus masking framework. At this time, any individual on campus must wear a mask at all times indoors, except when actively eating or drinking.

Outdoors, individuals must wear masks when in the presence of others. This includes during 'Cuse on the Quad and while tailgating.

Fans should visit Syracuse.edu/staysafe to track masking requirements.
