STUDENT PATIO DECK
Earlier this year, the Illinois Athletics Department announced a new student patio deck in the Memorial Stadium North End Zone student section in the Northeast Tower. The area includes concessions, high top tables with umbrellas, outdoor couches and chairs for socializing and TVs showing games across the country.
The Northeast Patio Deck is open to all students of all ages who purchase tickets to the game; no additional ticket is needed for entry. The deck is yet another amenity added to the student section this season, including the sale of beer in the general stands.
