Mobile Ticketing Options Starting this season, we are making a shift towards more mobile ticketing options for our fans. Taking after the airline and concert industries, we will be moving to mobile ticket delivery and no longer offering a print-at-home option. This initiative not only will help fans get their tickets faster and easier, but it also will help eliminate ticket fraud.

New this year, fans can have their mobile tickets delivered to them via SMS text as well as email. Fans also can choose to have their tickets mailed to them or picked up at will call. Premium Seating As a reminder, John Purdue Club members can purchase football premium seating in the Shively Club, Buchanan Club or a personal suite. Spaces are filling fast, so if you are interested in learning more about premium season options at Ross-Ade Stadium, contact your Boilermaker Athletics Representative or email PremiumSeating@purdue.edu. Premium Reserved Tailgating Back for 2019, fans can reserve turnkey tailgating through a partnership with Tailgate Guys. Bring your group and your Purdue Pride, and they will take care of the rest!
