How Many Fans Will Be at the 2021 National Championship Game?

Monday night's Alabama-Ohio State national championship game will be played at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Fla. in front of a limited capacity crowd.

Hard Rock Stadium, which is the home stadium for the Miami Dolphins and Miami Hurricanes, has a listed capacity of 65,326, but will host upward of 14,000 fans, a spokesperson for the College Football Playoff told the Tuscaloosa News.

Fans will also be seated in a socially distanced manner.

The stadium has been a COVID-19 virus testing facility since March, closing for football games, though, often remaining open seven days a week.
