Virginia Tech returns to Lane Stadium on Saturday, Oct. 17, for a 3:30 p.m. Homecoming matchup against Georgia Tech.
Virginia Tech Athletics says the game is sold out, making it the Hokies’ fourth consecutive home sellout of the 2026 season. Fans looking for tickets are being directed to SeatGeek, the athletic department’s official fan-to-fan marketplace.
The game anchors a Homecoming weekend that will bring additional pedestrian and vehicle traffic to campus and downtown Blacksburg. Anyone traveling near Lane Stadium should plan for congestion before kickoff and again when the game ends.
The matchup
The Hokies enter the Homecoming date after a West Coast trip to California. Georgia Tech comes to Blacksburg for an Atlantic Coast Conference meeting and one of the most visible home dates on Virginia Tech’s fall schedule.
Kickoff is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. Eastern. Ticket holders should confirm entry and parking instructions before leaving home and allow time for stadium screening.
Around town
Game-day traffic affects more than the stadium footprint. Main Street, Prices Fork Road, Southgate Drive and neighborhood streets near campus can become crowded as fans arrive. Walking, transit and arriving early may be easier than making a last-minute drive.
Fans should rely on Virginia Tech Athletics and official university alerts for any schedule, parking or stadium-entry changes.
