Location & Transportation

Frank Solich Field at Peden Stadium is located at 10 South Green Drive, Athens, OH 45701 — on the Ohio University campus in southeastern Ohio.

Driving and Parking: On-campus and nearby lots serve game-day parking for Ohio Bobcats football. Campus parking restrictions and permit requirements typically apply on game days, and lots can fill in the hours before kickoff, so arriving early is the best way to reduce stress and give yourself time to walk from parking areas to the stadium.

Transit: Athens is a small college town with local and campus bus service in the area. Many attendees reach the stadium on foot from the Ohio University campus, while others arrive by car and walk in from campus or nearby parking areas.

Rideshare: Rideshare drop-off and pickup are feasible around campus. On football Saturdays, traffic patterns, road closures near the stadium, and post-game congestion can create waits after the final whistle.

Nearby Accommodation: Lodging is available in and around Athens, including hotels near the Ohio University campus and along the US-33 corridor. Football weekends can tighten room availability, especially around homecoming and marquee matchups.

Venue Navigation

Frank Solich Field at Peden Stadium has a traditional stadium layout, with grandstand seating arranged around the football field. Understanding the basic sideline and end zone arrangement before you arrive helps you move through campus, enter through the appropriate gate, and get to your section efficiently on busy game days.

Entrances and Access: Guests enter through stadium gates serving the grandstand areas, with access from the surrounding Ohio University campus grounds. Because game-day crowds build before kickoff, checking your ticket for gate and section information before you arrive helps streamline entry.

Seating Levels: Seating is arranged in a traditional grandstand bowl around the field, with sideline and end zone sections. Bench and chairback seating options are available in various sections, and the most central sideline areas generally provide the clearest overall view of the field.

Accessibility: Accessible seating and services are available consistent with NCAA and university venue standards. Guests who need accessible seating should select appropriate listings when purchasing and plan extra time for campus movement, entry, and seating assistance.

Getting to Your Section: Game-day staff and signage direct attendees to seating areas. Because the venue is an older stadium with stairs and grandstand access, comfortable shoes and early arrival make it easier to move through crowds and reach your seats before kickoff.

Getting Ready for Your Frank Solich Field at Peden Stadium Event

Once your tickets are confirmed, a few practical preparations make your visit run significantly smoother — especially at an outdoor campus stadium where parking, weather, and game-day crowds can all shape the experience.

  • Download your tickets before you leave. Cell service can be congested in crowded stadium settings on game days. Save your tickets to your phone's wallet or screenshot them before departing so you're ready at the gate without needing a signal.
  • Charge your phone fully. Digital ticketing is standard, and your phone is your entry. A portable battery pack is worth having for a full evening.
  • Arrive early. Give yourself time to navigate campus parking, tailgating traffic, and game-day congestion before kickoff.
  • Wear the right footwear. Frank Solich Field at Peden Stadium involves stairs and grandstand access typical of an older stadium, so comfortable, supportive shoes make moving through the venue easier.
  • Dress in layers. As an outdoor stadium in southeastern Ohio, late-season games can be cold and subject to rain. Check the forecast and bring layers that fit the game-day conditions.
  • Build extra time into your transit plan. Campus traffic, parking demand, and road congestion can build well before kickoff, especially on high-demand football weekends.
  • Know your entrance. Your gate and section information appears on your ticket, and reviewing it before arrival helps you move directly toward the right entry point on busy game days.
  • Check the bag policy in advance. Reviewing the venue's guidelines before packing prevents delays at security.
