COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) — A new premium seating option is coming to Ohio Stadium next year.

The Ohio State athletic department confirmed Tuesday that the south end zone will have a premium seating option beginning in 2026. In front of the south stands will be nine elevated field-level suites that can fit 12 people in each.

On top of the new suites will be 400 chairback seats that will be the widest in the Horseshoe. Purchases of those seats will include admission to the new 1922 club, named for the opening year of Ohio Stadium.

The 1922 Club will have all-inclusive food and drinks and will open three hours before kickoff and stay open one hour after the final whistle. If you purchase suites, you can get access to the 1922 Club. Full membership to the 1922 club costs $4,500 per person while social membership costs $1,000 per person.

To gain access to those seats, fans will be able to use the same tunnel the Buckeyes use to and from the locker room when they go onto or leave the field. Chairback seats will cost $6,000 for a season and they are available to reserve until June 27.

In addition to the new seating, Ohio State announced that the marching band will be moving to the north end zone, which was the band’s location until the 2001 renovations.

If all goes to plan, the first game where these seats will be put to use will be on Sept. 5, 2026 when the Buckeyes host Ball State in the season opener. Ohio State will also host Michigan, Oregon, Kent State, Illinois, Maryland, and Northwestern for the 2026 regular season.
