With 2024 Kentucky football season kicking off this weekend, all remaining season ticket packages have sold out.
Wildcat fans have secured more than 40,800 season tickets. The season-ticket total is 600 more than 2023, and is a new record for the Mark Stoops era, dating to 2013, as well as the current configuration of Kroger Field, dating to the 2015 renovation.
All 6,500 student season passes have also sold out.
The Big Blue Nation’s excitement for the upcoming season is represented by record sales figures again this year.
“We are energized by the Big Blue Nation and thankful to our great fans for their support as we get ready for the upcoming season,” UK Director of Athletics Mitch Barnhart said. “Coach Stoops and the team love the BBN, the support they give us and the difference they make in Kroger Field. We look forward to Football Time in the Bluegrass.”
The verified resale marketplace is completely integrated with UK Athletics’ ticketing system and uses barcode verification technology to ensure the authenticity of all tickets.
As the official fan-to-fan marketplace of Big Blue Nation, Ticketmaster provides fans with reliable and convenient access to purchase tickets for games and sections that otherwise may be sold out, as well as the ability to post verified tickets for sale. Fans are cautioned against purchasing tickets from any other outlets.
Military and First Responders can receive specially priced tickets through GovX, while supplies last. Please note that you will need to get verified through GovX to purchase. These offers are exclusively available online in advance of game day.
