Michigan Football season ticket plans announced

There were no fans in the stands at the Big House in 2020 to cheer on Michigan football, but plans are in motion for fans to be back in the building for the 2021 season.

The Michigan athletic department announced on Thursday their plan for season tickets. “We are taking a methodical approach to 2021 ticketing due to the unknown future of crowds at sporting events,” said Michigan athletic director Warde Manuel. “With that in mind, we felt this was the right time to begin the renewal process for the upcoming season.

“We appreciate the patience and continued support of our fans as we navigate the current climate surrounding attendance at sporting events. We are incredibly grateful and thankful for the support that our loyal fan base has shown over the past year. Many of our fans elected to apply their 2020 season payments toward the 2021 season and will not have a balance for the upcoming year.”

• Feb. 5-26: Season Parking requests/Season Ticket Transfers
