Princeton Stadium to open September 19

      

The new Princeton University Stadium will be dedicated on September 19 at 1:00 p.m., before the football team's opening game of the season against Cornell. President Shapiro will speak. The stadium, which seats 27,800, is designed not only for football but also for soccer and lacrosse, and for hosting civic events as well.
     Architect Rafael Viñoly will give a public lecture on the project at 10:00 a.m. in Richardson Auditorium, and there will be tailgate parties (including one for faculty and staff) and other festivities around the site before the game. Gates open at 10:30 a.m.
     Tickets for the Cornell game are sold out, but tickets are still available for the other games at $5 each, including the Community Day game against Brown on October 10.
