Parents

Priority access to tickets

Being a parent of a current Notre Dame undergraduate student means you have great opportunity!

First, you automatically qualify for an application to designated Parent Game(s).

Second, as part of the Notre Dame family, you are being given priority access in the annual football season ticket lottery. Through the purchase of these tickets, you are helping to preserve one of the legendary landmarks in American sports while also exercising your opportunity to share in the history and excitement that is Notre Dame football.

Please keep in mind that one of the reasons we are making these tickets available is to ensure that the University endowment and donor funds continue to be focused on providing a premier education for your son or daughter.

How can parents participate in the Football Ticket Lottery?

All parents of current students are invited to participate in the University’s football ticket lottery as special contributors as outlined in the Football Ticket Lottery Guidelines. Special contributors are those individuals who support the University at the annual giving level of $1,500 or more – usually through the Sorin Society or one of the University’s other recognition societies. Special contributor applications have improved chances for success to multiple home games in the lottery. Read more about the University’s recognition societies.

The future is blue and gold

In the near future, Notre Dame will add an eighth off-site “home” game. That game is expected to improve ticket opportunities for Notre Dame parents even more.
