How much are tickets to see Penn State hockey at Beaver Stadium? On-sale dates, more info for the Jan. 31 contest

The Penn State men’s hockey team will host its first-ever game at Beaver Stadium on Saturday, Jan. 31, 2026, when Michigan State rolls into State College for a two-game series that starts on Fri., Jan. 30, at Pegula Ice Arena. Then, the Nittany Lions will take the show on the road to the university’s football field for a spectacle that is sure to remind many of a White Out game.

“We’re extremely excited,” Lions coach Guy Gadowksy told reporters at the team’s media day event earlier this week. “And I can tell you, it’s that’s one of the most common questions that I’ve received since day one of getting here. For it to finally happen, it’s awesome? There’s a lot of Penn Staters that are extremely excited about it.

“I consider it an honor to get to do it. I think it’s awesome. What Pat Kraft, Vinnie James, his entire staff have meant; they got this done. It was all them. And specifically, I think Pat is a guy that really fits into hockey culture. I do. I know the team really grab like really relates to him. So the messages that he has to our team are really well received. He does it in an awesome hockey way.”

Penn State has not yet said how many seats will be available for the game. The stadium will be undergoing renovations, of course. It is currently amid a multi-year, $700 million project that started last year.
