The November 14 football game versus Minnesota State will now be played inside the Fargodome.

Moorhead’s football contest against the Mavericks is set to kickoff at noon inside the Fargodome. All ticketing for that contest will run through the MSUM Box Office with traditional season tickets remaining valid. Fargodome parking will also be free for spectators.

The adjustment and move venues follows a department philosophy surrounding positive student-athlete and fan experience. The contests are the first of hopefully several Dragon events to be played outside of Moorhead’s facility footprint. The moves are made in hopes of providing new and exciting opportunities for competition for student-athletes. The events will also provide unique spectating experiences for MSUM and visiting fans alike.

“We’re taking the Dragon game-day experience beyond campus. We want to create memorable moments for our student-athletes and supporters,” said MSUM athletic director Chad Markuson.

The Fargodome opened in 1992 and has served the Red River Valley region for decades in both sporting and full live events. It has served as the home for North Dakota State football since 1993 and can hold up to 18,700 people for a football game. The football playing surface features artificial turf with the facility being completely enclosed with a fixed hard roof. MSUM football has played three games inside the Fargodome with the last being in 2000.

“I’m excited that we’re getting the opportunity to play in a venue with such a storied history,” said head football coach Steve Laqua. “It’s a great chance for our students, fans and alumni to connect with the greater Fargo-Moorhead community.”
