About this venue
Vaught Hemingway Stadium is more than a football venue—it’s a defining landmark of SEC college football on the University of Mississippi campus. Built around a classic bowl layout that keeps the action close, it offers an unmistakable game-day silhouette and a seating capacity of about 64,038, making it the home of the Ole Miss Rebels and one of the largest stadiums in Mississippi.
Inside, the experience is driven by big-crowd acoustics, strong sightlines from most sections, and a layout designed to move fans efficiently. Modernized seating areas, clear entry points, and a broad selection of food and beverage stands help make the visit comfortable and easy—whether you’re there for a marquee matchup or a first-time campus game.
You’ll find it at 6 All American Drive, Oxford, United States.
