Not only will the Auburn football program feature a new football coach and a roster that features more than 40 new faces, but the Tigers will be playing in an enhanced version of Jordan-Hare Stadium, Auburn Athletics announced Thursday.

In an effort to consistently improve the gameday experience on The Plains, Auburn announced the addition of more than 20 enhancements coming to Jordan-Hare Stadium for the 2023 season.

The stadium’s changes are highlighted by increased capacity as Jordan-Hare can now hold 88,043 fans — a bump up from its previous capacity of 87,451.

Despite the additional seating, which comes courtesy of “several new premium seating options”, Jordan-Hare Stadium stays ranked as the 12th largest stadium in college football, according to a list released by the NCAA in July. Auburn’s home stadium is the sixth largest among current SEC teams.

Pairing with the stadium’s increased capacity, Auburn also announced new concessions options that include quicker, Grab-N-Go options, as well as market-style shopping concepts.

Fast Flight Grab-N-Go Concessions will serve as a quicker, streamlined approach to typical concessions, while Bodda Getta Grab-N-Go Express Marketplaces will allow patrons to browse a market-style setting that will feature traditional concessions foods, as well as healthier option such as wraps from Auburn’s Amsterdam Café.

Other technological enhancements such as stadium-wide Wi-Fi improvements and closed captioning being added to video boards are also set to be unveiled at Jordan-Hare Stadium this fall. New play clocks were also recently added atop the lower bowl in each endzone.

In terms of adding to the gameday atmosphere, Auburn has enhanced the team’s tunnel entrance with new LED lighting, Auburn branding, as well as pyro and smoke effects.

The lighting enhancements extend well into the stadium as Auburn is set to introduced lighting concepts that are choreographed with music and video. Auburn also added a new, motion-based spotlight system, which will allow for “never-before-seen experiences inside Jordan-Hare Stadium.”

Auburn students were also considered and will get to experience having their own DJ Booth at the center of the student section this season.

In addition to the the mentioned, Auburn is also adding Special Needs Assistance Station For You (SNASFY), which is in partnership with Jackson Services and Carrier and will provide a comfortable and inclusive environment for individuals and families with special needs.

Carrier Cooling stations will also be available this fall, giving fans a designated place to temporarily escape the Alabama heat.

Thursday’s announcement of the many enhancements coming to Jordan-Hare Stadium comes on the heels of Tuesday’s announcement that Auburn Athletics was introducing “Auburn VIP” — a new program giving Tigers fans the opportunity to purchase exclusive gameday experiences.

Auburn is set to unveil all of its improvements and enhancements on Sept. 2 in the Tigers’ season opener against UMass — a matchup that was announced as sold out as of Wednesday.
