Virginia Tech and ClubCorp, a company considered to be one of the world leaders in private clubs, have partnered to build a new, premier venue within Lane Stadium, the University Club of Virginia Tech, designed to bring an already engaged fan base even closer to the university. The event area officially opened this week.
The University Club is a year-round private dining and social club located inside what was previously the President’s Suite of Lane Stadium. With its soft opening on Dec. 1, 2021, the University Club of Virginia Tech will offer premium dining, event and meeting spaces, engaging programming, and pre-game celebrations designed to bring Hokie fans, faculty, alumni, and the Blacksburg community together.
“The University Club of Virginia Tech is another opportunity for us to create memorable experiences for our fans, donors, alumni, campus community, and beyond,” Director of Athletics Whit Babcock said. “I believe the partnership between Virginia Tech and ClubCorp will provide members and guests with an exceptional experience within Lane Stadium. As the industry leader in building and managing private clubs, ClubCorp will help enhance the connection with our community and Virginia Tech.”
Offering stunning views of the stadium and campus, the club is in an ideal location to deliver memorable experiences and exceptional hospitality during football season and beyond.
“We are thrilled to be partnering with Virginia Tech to bring this one-of-a-kind facility to their campus,” said David Pillsbury, CEO of ClubCorp. “Lane Stadium is one of college football’s most electrifying arenas, and we look forward to leveraging that excitement year-round at the new University Club of Virginia Tech.”
