The Detroit Lions are back in the NFC championship game for the first time in 32 years, and even though they are on the road against the San Francisco 49ers, you will still be able to watch the game from the friendly confines of Ford Field.

Following the Lions' 31-23 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the divisional round, the team announced it would be hosting a watch party (tickets here) from their home stadium for the NFC championship next Sunday against the 49ers. The Lions will be on the road playing at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, with kickoff scheduled at 6:30 p.m.

Tickets for the watch party go on sale Monday at 3 p.m., though a pre-sale will be available at 10 a.m. for Lions Loyal Members, according to Ticketmaster.

Ford Field doors will open 90 minutes before kickoff, at 5 p.m., for the watch party. The team will be showing the game on all video boards and display screens inside the stadium.

The Lions will have seating available in 100 sections and reserved seating in the lower bowl, as well as performances from the team's cheerleaders and drumline, according to the team. A portion of the proceeds will support the Detroit Lions Foundation for Youth & High School Sports.
