Premium Seating - New Upgrades

New & Improved: Premium Seating Options

Cassell Coliseum's premium seating options are getting an upgrade. Starting this season (2026-27), Courtside at Cassell is moving from the traditional press row-style tables to a new NBA-style courtside seating experience, putting more Hokies closer to the action than ever before. Additionally, new loge seating options will be available between sections 109 & 110.

Creating additional Courtside seats, more Hokies now have a chance to be a part of this exclusive seating experience. The setup puts fans right on the sideline/baseline. A second row of court-level seats will also be added at an elevated height to maintain optimal sightlines.​

In-seat food delivery will remain the same as past years, and a new hospitality area will be added for pre-game and halftime access.
