After back-to-back conference games on the road, at Oklahoma on September 21 and at Arkansas on October 5, separated by the first open date of the season, Tennessee plays four straight home games, against Florida (October 12), Alabama (October 19), Kentucky (November 2) and Mississippi State (November 9), with the second open date on October 26 splitting the four-game run.
Tennessee announced last week it has already sold out its allotment of 70,500 season tickets at Neyland Stadium for a second straight season. Tennessee also has a “season ticket interest list” that is now at nearly 15,000 fans.
Tennessee led SEC in total home attendance, average attendance last season
White launched the ‘Rise Glorious’ comprehensive strategic plan in July 2022 which included season ticket goals for the football program. Tennessee surpassed a goal of 56,000 season tickets sold in the fall of 2022 with 61,490 season tickets. The Vols had a goal of 61,500 last season, before ultimately selling out the entire allotment of 70,500.
The 2024 season marks the third time in 23 season that Tennessee has sold out football season tickets, doing so last May and in August 2016.
Tennessee led the SEC in total home attendance (713,405) and average home attendance (101,915) last season. The Vols were ranked third and fourth nationally in those categories, respectively.
