On Wednesday, Notre Dame football announced the date of the program’s annual intrasquad scrimmage. Coach Marcus Freeman’s team will face each other in this year’s Blue-Gold Game on April 20. Kickoff is set at 1 p.m. EST. Peacock will have television coverage of the game.

Ticket prices for the Fighting Irish spring game vary from $10 to $40. Single-group tickets are $8.00 when purchasing at least 20. A general admission ticket is $10. All prices do not include taxes or fees. 

In last year’s game, Notre Dame fans had their first look at graduate transfer quarterback Sam Hartman. The former Wake Forest passer stole headlines by converting on 13-16 passes for 189 yards and 2 touchdowns. Hartman and “Team Gold” defeated “Team Blue” 24-0. 

True freshman wide receiver Jaden Greathouse also gave the program a glimpse of his potential impact for the upcoming season. The Austin (Texas) Westlake product caught 11 passes for 118 yards, leading all Irish pass catchers. 

Attendance at last year’s game was 32,942. 

The Blue-Gold game has historically become a key recruiting weekend for the Notre Dame football program. During last year’s game, the Irish welcomed over 30 prospects, including eight verbal commits. Seven more prospects who attended the game also pledged to Notre Dame.
