Inside the Venue At A Glance

01

Mixed

Arrival & transportation

Gate screening can be efficient when the no-bag policy is followed. A late bag-policy mistake is costly because parking may be a long walk away.

02

Mixed

Seat & section strategy

Much of the stadium uses bench seating, and personal stadium chairs are not permitted. A rented chairback or an aisle can materially improve a long game.

03

Positive

Event-day character

The Wasatch mountain backdrop, large crowd, and campus-specific policies create a venue experience that feels unmistakably BYU.
