Fans will find a wide array of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverage options throughout the stadium. Product menus are subject to change on a game-by-game basis. The lineup will be anchored by selections from Anheuser-Busch, an official partner of Bronco Athletics, including a variety of beers, seltzers, ciders and Coca-Cola products.
Additional beverage options from the following local vendors will be available at Albertsons Stadium during the 2024 season: Grand Teton Amber Ale, Odell Mountain Standard IPA, Western Collective's Orange Chaos, a hard seltzer, and Western Collective's Horseshoe Golden Ale. The Horseshoe Golden Ale was created in partnership with the Horseshoe Collective. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of both the Orange Chaos hard seltzer and the Horseshoe Golden Ale will be donated to The Horseshoe Collective, Boise State's only department-endorsed NIL collective.
There will also be new Bronco souvenir cups which will serve as a game day memento.
In order to purchase alcoholic beverages, fans must show proof of identification at the point of sale. Patrons are limited to two alcoholic beverages per transaction.
Bottled water will now be available at every concession stand and kiosk throughout Albertsons Stadium in addition to complimentary water stations.
Over the past two years, there has been a concerted effort to further enhance the fan experience and to reduce wait times at concession stands. This year, all concession stands will now only accept credit or debit cards at the point of sale. This move is designed to decrease transaction times allowing for a faster transaction, enabling Albertsons Stadium to serve more fans. For fans who bring cash, there are four onsite kiosks located at each entrance that will accept cash and convert their cash to a no-cost prepaid card.
Returning to the game day experience is Bronco Alley. Located on the east side of the stadium, Bronco Alley will feature food trucks, extra beverage stands and additional restrooms. Bronco Alley opens four hours prior to kickoff through halftime. Bronco Alley has expanded this year to provide more room for fans and vendors. The food truck lineup will vary from game to game depending on vendor availability.
The Ford Fan Zone located on the Hall of Fame Plaza and inside DeChevrieux Field is free to everyone and opens four hours prior to kickoff. Fans will find an area for kids to play yard games, including cornhole and spikeball, food trucks, hassle-free tailgating, photo stations with Bronco themed-backdrops, a local DJ and more.
