Cardinal and White Spring Game
Preview the 2017 football team at the Cardinal and White Spring Game as part of Cardinalpalooza. Building on last year's unique and intimate viewing experience, the game returns to Cagan Stadium. Parking is free; entry is general admission.
Football season ticket members who are also Buck/Cardinal Club donors have the exclusive opportunity to purchase Cardinal and White Spring Game tailgate tickets, which includes all-you-can-eat barbecue, refreshments, beer and wine from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. in Masters Grove, with a field-level view of all the action.
Similar to last year, all football season ticket members can claim early access passes while supplies last, providing first access to Cagan Stadium in advance of the general public. New for 2017, the same early access passes will also allow for early entry to postgame autograph alley on Maloney Field (weather permitting) with your favorite Cardinal student-athletes.
To claim early access passes, or to purchase Spring Game Tailgate tickets, STMs should check their email for a unique link to secure tickets/passes online. For questions, please call (800)-STANFORD (option 1).
