Cal Poly Rolls Out 2026 Football Season Tickets as New Madden Center Prepares for Debut

Packages start at $100; first‑year coach Tim Skipper unveils a six‑game home schedule under a revamped roster

Season tickets for the 2026 Cal Poly Mustangs football season are now on sale at GoPoly.com/tickets, with packages starting at $100. The offer gives fans the chance to secure seats for all six home games at Mustang Memorial Field, where the team will host a slate of opponents that includes Idaho, Central Washington, San Diego, Weber State, Utah Tech and Northern Arizona.

The news coincides with the arrival of first‑year head coach Tim Skipper, who was hired in December and has already overseen the addition of 39 newcomers to the roster. Skipper’s early imprint is evident in the team’s renewed focus on defensive intensity and community engagement.

Among the returning leaders is All‑American linebacker Mikey D’Amato, who headlines a defensive unit that also features First‑Team All‑Big Sky selection Kenny Olson. Both players are expected to anchor the defense and mentor the influx of fresh talent.

The 2026 schedule opens on August 28 with a home game against Idaho at Spanos Stadium, a venue that will also witness the debut of the new John Madden Football Center. The facility, named in honor of the late legendary coach, will serve as a hub for practices, recruiting visits and fan experiences.

Subsequent home contests include a September 5 showdown with Central Washington, a September 19 matchup versus San Diego, an October 3 game against Weber State, an October 24 contest with Utah Tech, and a November 7 finale against Northern Arizona. Each game promises a distinct challenge as the Mustangs aim to climb the Big Sky standings.

Fans can stay updated through the program’s social media channels — Instagram, X and Facebook under the handle @calpolyfootball — where behind‑the‑scenes content and live game updates will be shared throughout the season.

A New Era for Cal Poly Football

With a blend of seasoned veterans and promising newcomers, the Mustangs are poised to make a significant impact in the Big Sky Conference this fall. The combination of affordable ticket pricing, a modernized facility and a clear coaching vision signals an exciting chapter for Cal Poly athletics.
