Mark your calendars, Cardinal fans! The annual Louisville Football Spring Game is set for Friday, April 11th, at 6 p.m. inside L&N Stadium. This is your final opportunity to catch the team in action on their home turf before they return this September, making it a must-see preview of the 2026 squad.

Head Coach Jeff Brohm is dialing up the excitement with a unique format. The roster will be split into offensive and defensive units, competing under a modified scoring system that allows the defense to earn points directly. This twist ensures a highly competitive and entertaining scrimmage that showcases both sides of the ball.

Plan your game day early! Parking lots will open for tailgating at 1 p.m., so you can arrive, set up, and soak in the atmosphere. Stadium gates will open to the public at 5 p.m., with entry available through Gates 1–5. Best of all, admission is completely free, with seating in the lower bowl (Sections 101–125).

Beyond the on-field action, there will be plenty of fan engagement. Test your skills at the Quarterback Challenge located inside Gate 3, where you can show off your arm strength and accuracy. It's the perfect way to feel the thrill of the game firsthand.

For fans looking to secure their spot for the full season, ticket sales representatives will be stationed near the L Club in Section 205 to discuss season ticket packages. To streamline the process, consider filling out an online interest form in advance.

Don't forget to check out the exclusive gear! Popular Bird Yeti tumblers will be available for purchase for $35 (drink not included) while supplies last, offering a limited-quantity chance to rep your Cardinals in style.
