Vanderbilt’s seven home games feature a variety of themes and ticket options

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Kicking off with East Tennessee State at 7 p.m. on Sept. 4, Vanderbilt has set its ticket package options, prices and on-sale dates for the 2021 season as well as game themes.

Starting Monday, Vanderbilt launched its Seats for Service initiative. This program allows for individuals to sponsor a $20 game ticket, which will be donated to veterans, active-duty soldiers and their families.

Three and four-game mini plans will be offered this fall and go on sale July 6. For the three-game plan, individuals can select any three games, excluding the Georgia contest, starting at $85.

The four-game package begins at $165 and includes one game at each tier. For the four-game plan, fans get the Georgia game and choose between Stanford and Mississippi State, Missouri and Kentucky and East Tennessee State and UConn.

Single-game ticket sales, with the exception of the Georgia contest, begin July 20 for season ticket holders and donors and July 22 for general public. Single-game sales for the Georgia clash begin August 3 for season ticket holders and donors and August 5 for general public.

Prices have been established for the year with season tickets starting at $175, a minimum savings of 34 percent. Single-game tickets for the Georgia tilt begin at $75 with the Stanford and Mississippi State games $40, Missouri and Kentucky $35 and East Tennessee State and UConn $25.

For groups of 15 or more, pricing discounts are available with Georgia tickets starting at $60, Stanford and Mississippi State $35, Missouri and Kentucky $30 and East Tennessee State and UConn $20. Sales for groups kick off July 6.

Additional fees are not included in the starting prices for single games and groups.

Vanderbilt Stadium is expected to operate at 100 percent capacity for the 2021 campaign. Following revised CDC recommendations indicating that fully vaccinated people no longer need to wear masks or physically distance, Vanderbilt updated many of its protocols effective May 25, including that gathering  size limits will be lifted for  outdoor gatherings.

Vanderbilt will continue to monitor public health guidance and rely on experts, including the CDC, Nashville Metro Public Health, and leaders at Vanderbilt University Medical Center and the School of Nursing.

The Commodores have also set their game themes for the 2021 season, Clark Lea’s first as Vandy’s head coach. Each contest will recognize essential workers, who worked throughout the COVID-19 pandemic and served as leaders in community.
