Getting Into Mosaic Stadium



With the recent construction at Mosaic Stadium and the Farm Progress Show at Evraz Place currently taking place, the Saskatchewan Roughriders are encouraging fans to come down to Friday’s preseason game early in order to familiarize yourself with parking availability and stadium entrances.



Fans with game tickets in the North End Zone will continue to enter the stadium through the North Gate.



Fans with game tickets in the new South End Zone seats will enter through the gates at the Southwest corner of Mosaic Stadium.
