Enhancements to Allegacy Federal Credit Union Stadium Await Fans for 2023 Football Season
- New LED Lighting
  - Allegacy Stadium will shine brighter this season with the addition of new LED stadium lights, to be installed by Musco, an industry leader in the design, manufacturing and installation of sports lighting solutions. Replacement of the old light banks with energy efficient LED light reflects Wake Forest's sustainability efforts and also improves dependability for both the record setting crowds in attendance but also ABC, ESPN and ACC Network national television audiences. And, the new technology will enable exciting multi-color light shows to enhance the moment every time the Deacs "Open the Gates" prior to kick-off and in big moments throughout the game!
- Handrails Between Sections & Stairs on Deacon Hill
  - To make it easier for all fans to get to their seats handrails will be installed in all stadium aisles in both the west and east side stands.
  - Additionally, Wake Forest Athletics will be building permanent stairs on each side of Deacon Hill to help fans access their location and back to the concourse. These stairs are a key addition for not only Athletics events but future outside events (i.e. concerts, shows, etc.).
- Wake Forest App
- Mobile Ticketing
- ALL-IN-1
Introducing ALL-IN-1, a New Smart Ticket Experience
- Paciolan, Wake Forest's ticketing partner, has launched a new smart ticket experience called "ALL-IN-1" for the 2023-24 athletics year, starting this fall at Allegacy Federal Credit Union Stadium as well as all other Wake Forest athletic venues.
- ALL-IN-1 is a smart ticket that will simplify your digital wallet by consolidating your entire sports season, series of performances, or set of shows into a single pass. Season ticket, mini plan, or series purchasers will now only have to download one mobile ticket per seat that will automatically update to the event in their plan. That means season ticket holders can download their mobile ticket once for the entire season and never worry about cellular connectivity at the gate again!
- ALL-IN-1 tickets are available to download to your mobile wallet at GoDeacs.com/myaccount as any other mobile ticket would be. You can determine if a ticket is an ALL-IN-1 pass by the logo in the upper right hand corner of the pass.
- You can learn more about the ALL-IN-1 pass here, or contact the Wake Forest ticket office at tix@wfu.edu for any questions you may have about your account.
