STANFORD, Calif. - In alignment with Stanford University's policies governing large group gatherings on campus, Stanford Athletics has announced that it will welcome back spectators at all athletics events, beginning Jan. 28. Stanford had previously announced that spectator attendance at indoor events was to be limited to the families of participating student-athletes due to a recent spike in Covid cases. In accordance with policies prior to the attendance pause, spectators at indoor events will need to provide proof of Covid vaccination or a negative PCR or LAMP test administered within 48 hours of the event for entry. Information on entry requirements can be found at GoStanford.com/attendance.
Additionally, the state of California has changed its parameters around "mega-events," which will now require spectators attending events at Burnham Pavilion (men's gymnastics, men's volleyball, wrestling) to provide proof of vaccination or negative test results prior to entering. Outdoor events will also return to full capacities.
The Cardinal's first indoor event back with full attendance will be Stanford's women's basketball game vs. Arizona State on Friday, Jan. 28. Attendance at indoor events prior to Jan. 28 (men's volleyball vs. Vanguard and women's basketball vs. California on Jan. 21, men's volleyball vs. UC Santa Cruz and men's basketball vs. Arizona State on Jan. 22) will remain limited to student-athlete families.
Fans who held tickets to events impacted by the spectator pause will receive communication from the Stanford Athletics Ticket Office.
