Mizzou Athletics has announced a series of updates aimed at improving the fan experience at Memorial Stadium for the 2025 season. Among the changes are new custom-designed LED stadium lights that will allow for choreographed light shows during breaks and after significant plays.

A new Tiger Fan Zone will be available to all fans free of charge, opening three-and-a-half hours before kickoff on game days. Located on the lawn on Tiger Avenue across from the Tiger Avenue Parking Structure, this area will feature a large-screen TV showing games from around the country, food trucks with seating, beer sales, merchandise sales by the Tiger Team Store, an MU Health Care Kids Zone with a video game truck featuring EA Sports College Football 26, and a Coca-Cola Student Tailgate.

Game day enhancements also include increased use of pyrotechnics at key moments and a new camera inside the locker room to engage fans during team runouts. The in-game script has been reworked to maintain energy levels throughout breaks in play.

Concessions have been updated as well. Six locations within Memorial Stadium will now offer "Fan-Friendly" pricing with items such as $2.99 hot dogs, popcorn, chips, 16 oz fountain sodas, and 12 oz Dasani water available behind various sections including 103-104, 108-109, 120-121, 124-125, and both stands on the 300-level Tiger Deck.

New menu options have also been introduced: BBQ Bacon Wrapped Conecuh Sausage Dog (Section 121), Boulevard Beer Brat (Section 106 and Boulevard Concession Stand at Section 123), Boulevard Beer Cheeseburger (Boulevard Concession Stand at Section 123), Boulevard Beer Cheese Fries (Boulevard Concession Stand at Section 123), and Loaded Nachos (Una Vida Concession Stand at Section 118).

Fans will find more opportunities to purchase merchandise with additional Tiger Team Store sales locations added throughout the concourse as well as outside Memorial Stadium and at Mizzou Arena.
