Gate and Section Renumbering
To improve ease of navigation in and around Saban Field at Bryant-Denny Stadium, gate numbers and section names have changed for the 2026 season. Refer to the new stadium map.
- Stadium gates have been renumbered clockwise starting at the Walk of Champions. Fans can still use the same security checkpoints and entry gates they 're familiar with, but the number labels are now simplified. For example, fans who had Gate 13-17 listed as their entry gate on their mobile ticket last season will now just see Gate 36.
- Section names in the upper and lower bowls now have a three-digit number corresponding with the respective floor level. For example, Section D on Level 1 is now Section 104 and Section NN-7 on Level 8 is now Section 823.
- Some premium seating sections have been reordered and updated with a cardinal direction designation. Skyboxes have been renamed to include a cardinal direction and a three-digit number corresponding to the floor level.
- Row and seat numbers are staying the same. Only the gates and section labels have been updated.
- Security checkpoint locations remain the same and public ADA elevators to the upper levels are available at Gates 10, 19, and 30.
