Faurot Field Seating Chart
Faurot Field is the home of Missouri Tigers football at Memorial Stadium in Columbia, famous for the giant white rock M built into the north end-zone hillside. The bowl fills with a loud SEC crowd, and Rock M is one of college football's most recognizable landmarks.
Sections at Faurot Field
Faurot Field breaks down into these 6 main sections. The one printed on your ticket sets your price, your distance, and your view, so read it against this list before you buy — and note the layout can shift between a game, a concert, and a private buyout.
- Lower bowl — sideline and end-zone rows closest to the field
- East and West sideline sections at midfield
- North end zone — seating around the Rock M
- South end zone sections
- Upper deck — second-level seating along the sidelines
- Suites and club above the west sideline
Best seats at Faurot Field
West sideline sections near midfield put you on the press-box side with shade in afternoon games. The lower east sideline gets the student energy, and seats near the north end give the iconic Rock M backdrop in frame.
Tips before you go
Campus lots and garages open early for tailgating, so arrive ahead of kickoff to settle in. The west side stays shaded longer for afternoon games, and the upper deck offers the best overall view of the field and the famous hillside M.
How to read the Faurot Field seating chart
Faurot Field seats 62,621 around a field, and its chart is organized into 6 named sections — Lower bowl, East and West sideline sections at midfield, North end zone, South end zone sections, Upper deck, and Suites and club above the west sideline. The exact label on your ticket is what pins your spot: a seat two sections over can sit a level higher, a price tier apart, or on the opposite side of the room.
Every Faurot Field seat is really the sum of three choices: how close you are to the field, whether you sit on a sideline or in an end zone, and how high you are. Put Suites and club above the west sideline and Lower bowl side by side and the gap shows up immediately — in level, in price tier, and often in which half of the Columbia room you land in. The best-seats notes above settle it for Faurot Field; just verify section, row, and seat on the official map before you pay.
Some context on size — Faurot Field's 62,621 capacity places it 2nd among the 11 Missouri venues in this guide; Arrowhead Stadium (76,416) is the next size up, Busch Stadium (45,494) the next size down.
Building a seating chart for an event at Faurot Field
If your event lands at or near Faurot Field — a corporate block, a reception, a team dinner — start from the venue's real geography: sections like Lower bowl and Suites and club above the west sideline and the tiers around them set the footprint. Rebuild that footprint in the maker with rounds for the dinner, rows for the program, and a head table where the format wants one, then assign guests and export a PDF for the Columbia event-services team. You won't need anywhere near the full 62,621-seat configuration; private blocks live in clubs, suites, and adjacent banquet rooms — exactly the scale the tool handles.
