Illini football season ticket holders are set to benefit from a concessions discount at Memorial Stadium in 2024. Those who purchase or renew their tickets by April 1 will receive a 10% discount on concessions during home games, while I FUND members will enjoy an additional 5% off, totaling a 15% savings.

The discount applies to all food and beverages, including alcohol, available at permanent concession stands throughout the stadium. Premium seating ticket holders will also be eligible for these benefits. Membership cards enabling the discounts will be distributed to season ticket holders and I FUND members later.

Illinois announced earlier this year that it plans to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Memorial Stadium's dedication throughout the upcoming season. The Dedication Game originally took place on October 18, 1924, against Michigan when Illini legend Red Grange gained fame with his performance. Illinois is scheduled to host Michigan again on October 19, 2024, marking it as the "Rededication Game."

Following a successful campaign in 2023 that saw over 10,000 new season tickets sold, the Division of Intercollegiate Athletics (DIA) aims to continue fostering community spirit and enhancing game day experiences at Memorial Stadium. To support this initiative and commemorate the stadium's centennial anniversary, season ticket prices start at $100.

For fans who have already renewed or purchased new tickets, no further action is needed as membership cards will be mailed automatically.
