Welcome to Ryan Field. Download the Ryan Field app—it's the front door to your game day: buy and manage your tickets, unlock the Willie's $5 menu, order ahead at the Great Big Ten Grillout, tap and go at the Two-Minute Markets, and find your parking, gate, and maps before you leave the house. New Ryan Field is reimagining college football—better-than-television sightlines from every seat, premium food and drink for every fan, and a game day designed around everyone in the building. Premium for everyone. Every seat is an individual chair with a cupholder and armrests—no benches, no bleachers. The canopy covers every seat in the bowl, so every fan is protected from the weather while the playing surface stays open to the elements. Premium markets, portables, and bars serve every fan, not just club members. Your ticket is your festival pass. Every ticket includes access to 200,000 square feet of festival grounds wrapping the stadium inside the secure perimeter—food, drinks, and entertainment well before kickoff, and a place to stay after the final whistle. Five dollars, every game. Willie's Fan Favorites is Chicago's first $5 stadium menu—game-day basics, done properly, at markets on every level. Unlock it in the app. The tailgate, with nothing to bring. The Great Big Ten Grillout opens before kickoff: barrel grills, corn roasters, and no cooler, parking pass, or truck required. Order ahead and reserve your spot in the app. Premium extends to accessibility. Ryan Field will be the most accessible stadium ever built. Accessible seats are the best in the house, with world-class sightlines, weather protection, and comfort at every level and every angle. Four festivals on every game day, included with every ticket: the Tailgating Plaza, where you can tailgate without the setup; the Village and Great Hall, a 50,000-square-foot culinary hub bringing the best restaurants from Evanston and Chicago together as a street festival; the Family Festival in a new park, with games, obstacle courses, and kids' activities; and the Student Festival—the best party on campus, creating new traditions while keeping old ones alive. Four Rockwell Group-designed clubs—the Field Club, the Loft, the Northwestern Club, and the East Club—each with its own identity, amenities, and dining.
