Vanderbilt On Schedule to Complete End Zone Project Before End of Season
Premium seating options in the south end zone of FirstBank Stadium will be available for the season opener against Charleston Southern on Aug. 30, a Vanderbilt football spokesperson told The Tennessean. That seating includes suites, boxes and club seating.
However, construction will still continue in some areas.
"We’re excited to welcome fans to our newly completed south end zone at FirstBank Stadium and to celebrate this historic moment together at our season opener against Charleston Southern Aug. 30," the athletic department said in a statement. "As with any major construction project, some interior and exterior work will continue, particularly along sections of Jess Neely Drive as we finish the final phase of a campus utilities upgrade. We expect that work to wrap up early this fall."

“We remain laser-focused on enhancing our athletic facilities to elevate the competitiveness of all of our athletic programs, and most importantly to improve the overall experience for all our student-athletes,” said Vice President and Director of Athletics Bob Beretta. “We developed an extremely aggressive facility renovation plan during the winter months and have been actively engaged in executing the plan on a daily basis since the middle of May. We feel that every one of our student-athletes will benefit in some manner from the extensive work we have and will complete.
