Ohio State's New Field-Level Suites Revealed in Video, Wild Price Announced Ahead of 2026 CFB Season

Ohio State fans hoping to watch the No. 1 team in the country in luxury this college football season now have new options.

The Buckeyes installed new premium field-level suites in the south end zone of Ohio Stadium, and they will cost $142,700 each. The suites can hold up to 12 people with eight standing-room spots, although they are still under construction ahead of the Sept. 5 home opener:

That is not the only change, as Ohio Stadium will also have new turf installed:

Ohio State announced in June 2025 it planned on installing nine field-level suites as well as 400 premium chairback seats on top of the field-level additions.

Athletic director Ross Bjork said it "marks a small key step in the ongoing modernization of Ohio Stadium—ensuring this iconic and wonderful venue continues to evolve while honoring the traditions that make it so special. We're dedicated to making every visit to the 'Shoe unforgettable, and this enhancement is another meaningful stride toward delivering the best possible game day experience."

According to the announcement, fans in the premium suites will enter their seats from the same tunnel the football team uses to get to the field. What's more, they will have access to the 1922 Club, which will feature all-inclusive food and drink.

As a result of the new installations, the Buckeyes band will move from the south end zone seating to the north end zone.

Fans who attend games in the new seating options will have the opportunity to watch a team that will once again be entering a new season with national championship expectations. With star wide receiver Jeremiah Smith and quarterback Julian Sayin returning, the Scarlet and Gray are No. 1 in the country in the Associated Press Top 25.

However, all that talent will certainly be challenged by a daunting schedule that includes road trips to Texas, Indiana, USC and Iowa, as well as home games against Oregon and Michigan.
