The game will be played on January 5, 2026 at the newly renovated stadium on the campus of Vanderbilt University and will air nationally on ABC.
 
Nashville is the 11th city to host the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) Championship since 1978 and will also host the event in 2027. The Championship was previously played in the state of Tennessee from 1997 to 2009 when Chattanooga served as the host. 

Vanderbilt's newly renovated First Bank Stadium seats approximately 35,000 and features modern facilities and fan-focused amenities with a state-of-the-art locker room and 4-level press box. The nearby John Rich Complex offers three practice fields, a 2,000 sq. ft. weight room, and synthetic turf matching the stadium’s surface ensuring consistency for the athletes.
