One the Notre Dame football’s recent traditions has been playing in an annual Shamrock Series game which started in 2009, and on Wednesday it was announced that the 2026 edition will happen on Sep. 6th, against the Wisconsin Badgers at Lambeau Field.
Initially the game was supposed to be played in 2020, but due to the shortened season, it didn’t happen. This will be the second time the two teams have played in a Shamrock Series game, the first a Notre Dame 41-13 win in Soldier Field in Chicago, Illinois. The announcement means that the Irish can now check off playing in another stadium, as this will be the first time playing in historic Lambeau Field.
According to the press release, this is only the third time a collegiate game will be played on the “Frozen Tundra,” the first since 2016. Another interesting note they shared was the fact that the field is named after a Notre Dame player and founder of the Green Bay Packers, Curly Lambeau.
