Penn State sets Beaver Stadium record for ticket prices

Penn State is setting a football ticket-pricing record for the second consecutive year.

Single-game tickets for the 2019 home schedule go on sale to the public Tuesday, with the Oct. 19 game against Michigan reaching a new mark. The best seats cost $240, making them the most expensive tickets in Beaver Stadium history.

The price is $15 higher than the top tickets for last year’s game against Ohio State, which previously held the Beaver Stadium record. Prices for the Penn State-Michigan game range from $120-$240. Penn State has used a variable-pricing method for football tickets since 2014.

Penn State said tickets for the Michigan game have been in high demand through pre-sales for members of the Nittany Lion Club, with only single seats available. A limited number of tickets are available for the Sept. 14 game against Pitt, as well.

That’s a change from two years ago, when tickets for the Pitt and Michigan games were not available during the public sale.

Single-game tickets for the 2019 season go on sale at 10 a.m. Tuesday. Prices range from a low of $40 (the least-expensive seats for the Sept. 7 game against Buffalo) to the $240 ticket against Michigan.

Tickets for the Pitt game range from $100-$210. Other prices include the following:

Aug. 31 vs. Idaho ($45-$140)

Sept. 7 vs. Buffalo ($40-$130)

Oct. 5 vs. Purdue ($80-$180)

Nov. 16 vs. Indiana ($75-$170)

Nov. 30 vs. Rutgers ($55-$150)

Tickets are available in six different pricing categories. For information, visit Penn State’s ticket website.
