Nebraska outdoor volleyball event goes for world record: Live stream, how to watch online, TV, time
The Nebraska athletic department has taken aim at the women’s sporting attendance record when the University of Nebraska hosts a celebration of volleyball at Memorial Stadium on Wednesday, Aug. 30. The event will be live streamed on fuboTV (free trial).
The event will feature an exhibition between in-state Division II powers Nebraska-Kearney and Wayne State and a regular-season match between Omaha and the fourth-ranked Cornhuskers. Country artist Scotty McCreery will perform afterward.
The women’s sporting event attendance record is 91,648, which was set during a Champions League soccer match when Barcelona defeated Real Madrid 5-2 at the Camp Nou Stadium in 2022.
Memorial Stadium’s official capacity is just more than 85,000 for football, but that number will be higher for this event because seating on the field is available. The court is positioned on the north end of the stadium, which is the home field of the Huskers football team.
