BOISE, Idaho - Boise State Athletics announced updated entry plazas for all fans entering Albertsons Stadium for the 2026 Bronco football season. An interactive map can be found at BroncoSports.com.
Each digital ticket will include a suggested entry point and gate. However, Albertsons Stadium has instituted an "any ticket, any gate policy" for all tickets outside of Stueckle Sky Center (SSC), North End Zone (NEZ), and student tickets.
"We are excited to welcome Bronco Nation back to Albertsons Stadium," said Nathan Burk, Chief Operating Officer, Boise State Sports & Entertainment Group. "Our goal is to continually elevate the fan experience and make every visit to Albertsons Stadium as enjoyable as possible. That means listening to our fans, identifying opportunities to improve and, most importantly, responding quickly when a need or concern arises. We want our fans to know that we are listening, we are accessible and we are committed to making their game day experience the very best it can be."

As a reminder, Boise State Athletics adjusted its chair back policy for Albertsons Stadium. Foldable seats and seat cushions brought to Bronco games should be no wider than 18 inches, contain no metal frames or pockets, and must not be brought into the stadium within a cover or bag. Seat cushions that are large in size and could be manipulated to conceal items are prohibited. Seat cushions without a frame or pocket as well as foldable cushions are allowed in Albertsons Stadium.
Fans are permitted to bring one clear plastic or vinyl bag, package or container that does not exceed 12 x 6 x 12 inches; a one-gallon clear plastic freezer bag; or a purse, bag or clutch no larger than 4.5 x 6.5 inches. Prohibited bags include but are not limited to large purses, coolers, briefcases, backpacks, luggage of any kind, computer bags or any bag larger than the permissible size. There will be a complimentary Bag Check at each entry for those customers who mistakenly bring prohibited items to the stadium.
Boise State Athletics has expanded Guest Service staffing to help fans with questions, concerns, and any assistance needed. All Guest Services personnel will wear a blue, high-visible vest emblazoned with the Bronco logo on the front, and Guest Services written on the back. Fans are encouraged to visit the Ticket Resolution and Guest Services tables that will be located at Entry Plaza 1, 2, 3, and 4.
Albertsons Stadium expanded its VIP services by creating VIP Entries - labeled Stueckle Entry - to expedite the entrance of VIP fans. Each ticket holder will receive a wristband upon entering the stadium at Entry Plaza 3 (South Elevator Lobby), Entry Plaza 4 (North Elevator Lobby), or the Lyle Smith Society entrance at the Allen Noble Hall of Fame entrance. This wristband will allow Stueckle (SSC) guests to travel freely between the SSC and the main concourse. Guests will not be permitted to transport beverages of any kind from Stueckle to the main concourse including alcoholic beverages, water bottles, etc.
All North End Zone ticket holders will enter Albertsons Stadium at the NEZ-designated Entry Plaza 5 (northeast of Entry 4 and southeast corner of Caven WIlliams Sports Complex). Wristbands will be provided upon a successful ticket scan which provides access to the North End Zone and main concourse.
Boise State Athletics continually updates the interactive game day map, to help Bronco Nation find the fastest routes to food, fun, and football both outside of Albertsons Stadium and inside the venue. The map is accessible via the BroncoSports app, or at maps.broncosports.com, and will include information related to parking, game day activities, concessions menus, restroom locations, ADA accessibility, and will also provide turn-by-turn directions based upon your location and destination.
The Broncos home opener on Saturday, September 12 at 4 p.m. MT against Memphis.
