When is kickoff for Notre Dame football’s annual Blue-Gold Game?

SOUTH BEND — Notre Dame football fans should get their first look at Duke transfer quarterback Riley Leonard in the Blue-Gold Game on April 20 at Notre Dame Stadium.

Kickoff for the annual spring game is set for 1 p.m., with the controlled scrimmage carried live on NBC’s Peacock streaming service.

Tickets range from $10 to $40 and are available for purchase online. Group tickets start at $8.

Coming off a 10-3 season that included a Sun Bowl victory over Oregon State, 14th-ranked Notre Dame recently welcomed 15 early-enrolled freshmen and a handful of transfer portal additions.
