LEVI’S® STADIUM TO HOST FIRST OFFICIAL PUBLIC TOUR ON FRIDAY, AUGUST 8

Thursday, August 7, 2014

To kick off the sold-out Grand Opening Weekend of the Levi’s® Stadium Tours program opening to the public on Friday, August 8th, the San Francisco 49ers will incorporate some pomp and circumstance into the first official public tour while introducing valuable incentives for advance tour purchases for the rest of August.

As would be expected of the 49ers Faithful, the demand shown by 49ers fans to get a firsthand look at Levi’s® Stadium has been impressive. Levi’s® Stadium tours for Grand Opening Weekend are sold out through Sunday with limited dates and times remain available throughout the opening month of August. A popular option among guests has been to bundle the Levi’s® Stadium Tour and 49ers Museum presented by Sony tickets for the full stadium experience at a discounted rate.

Beginning this weekend, individuals who visit LevisStadium.com/Tours to pre-book public guided Levi’s® Stadium tours throughout the month of August will be eligible to win a host of exclusive rewards. The prizes include free Levi’s® Stadium tours and 49ers Museum presented by Sony access for a year, Levi’s® Stadium event tickets, or VIP Lunch or Dinner at Michael Mina’s Bourbon Steak & Pub. There will also be gift card giveaways from the Levi’s® Stadium Flagship Team Store for advance purchases made during the month of August.

“We knew the 49ers Faithful would be excited to get to know Levi’s Stadium, but the interest they’ve shown to experience it through our tour program has exceeded our expectations since going on-sale last month,” said 49ers COO Al Guido. “We designed Levi’s Stadium to be an attractive year-round destination for people of all ages and with this weekend’s opening of Levi’s Stadium Tours and the 49ers Museum, we welcome them to begin making new 49ers memories while reminiscing on the storied history of this franchise.”

Friday’s first pre-booked public stadium tour will be a star-studded event featuring 49ers alumni, team mascot Sourdough Sam, Gold Rush cheerleaders and the team drum line, Niner Noise.
