Gameday in Notre Dame Stadium is unmatched, but the noise and crowds can be overwhelming for some fans. We’re glad to share that a new sensory room is officially open on gamedays to help fans step away and reset.

Located off the upper east concourse near Section 108 in Corbett Family Hall, the quiet space opens 90 minutes before kickoff and stays open through the end of the third quarter. It’s fully supported by trained LOGAN Center staff, alongside a few of our NDPD comfort K9s who are always ready to say hello. 🐶

If you or someone in your group needs a low-stimulation environment to take a breather, this space is built for you. Just visit one of our Guest Service booths for directions and more information.

Prefer to stay in your section? You can still pick up sensory bags equipped with noise-canceling headphones and fidget tools at any Guest Services booth around the stadium.
