Both San Francisco 49ers president Al Guido and the official Levi's Stadium Twitter account announced today that the team's home venue expects to welcome back fans at full capacity for the 2021 season.

"Barring changes to guidance, Levi's Stadium will be back to full capacity for the 21-22 season!" reads the post on the stadium's Twitter account. "Thank you to the healthcare workers, public officials & all leading the CA vax campaign for making this possible."


Said Guido via a statement: "Not a day goes by that we haven't missed hearing 49ers fans in Levi's Stadium and we're thrilled to be able to fully welcome them back for the upcoming season. We want to thank the frontline healthcare workers at Levi's Stadium who have worked tirelessly to drive the largest vaccination site in California. Thanks to their efforts, we've administered nearly 350,000 shots in the name of protecting our community and allowing us to return to the activities and people we love. We'd also like to thank state, county, and local officials for helping to lead us through a tough and unprecedented year. We encourage everyone in our community to get their shot as we get ready to host the Faithful for the upcoming season!"


The 49ers are scheduled to open their preseason at Levi's Stadium on Saturday, August 14, against the Kansas City Chiefs. They will also host a preseason game against the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday, August 29.
