Virginia Athletics announced on Apr. 28 that it will launch the South Lawn Club, a new premium membership add-on at Scott Stadium for the upcoming 2026 football season. The club will offer fans field-level access next to the team tunnel, providing an immersive and social game day experience.
The South Lawn Club is limited to 150 season passes and includes VIP field-level viewing with hospitality near the team tunnel. Members will also have access to “The Ride,” which offers a behind-the-scenes look at one of Virginia Football’s traditions.
Membership for the season costs $500 per person and requires a minimum annual donation of $1,750 or more to the Virginia Athletics Foundation Annual Fund. The pass is valid for one year only and does not include game tickets. Only football season ticket holders are eligible to request membership, with priority given to VAF Sabre Society members and Annual Fund supporters.
Members can move between their assigned seats in the stands and the South Lawn Club during games. Amenities include standing-room-only viewing areas with cocktail tables, private restrooms, food and beverage options available for purchase—including beer, wine, seltzer, soft drinks, and snacks—and early access beginning 1.5 hours before kickoff until after each game ends.
The Cavaliers’ home schedule in 2026 features six games at Scott Stadium: Atlantic Coast Conference matchups against Syracuse (Oct. 10), Duke (Oct. 23 or 24), California (Nov. 14), North Carolina (Nov. 21), as well as non-conference games against Norfolk State (Sept. 11) and Delaware (Sept. 26).
Fans interested in joining can submit a priority request by June 1; qualifying does not guarantee assignment due to limited availability.
