Ticket Sales Open for Valparaiso’s Fall Sports
Fans can now purchase single‑game tickets for Valparaiso University’s volleyball and football contests, while season passes covering all three sports — volleyball, football and basketball — are also available. The announcement comes as the athletics department prepares for a busy schedule that begins in early September.
Season ticket holders will enjoy guaranteed access to every home event, providing a convenient way to follow the Beacons throughout the campaign. Early‑bird pricing and package details are listed on the university’s athletics website.
Volleyball’s Popcorn Classic Kicks Off the Season
The volleyball team opens its home slate with the Popcorn Classic, a three‑day tournament running from September 4 through 6. The event will feature matchups against familiar conference rivals, including a showdown with Michigan.
Valpo’s first home appearance against Michigan is slated for September 6 at 4 p.m. inside the Athletics‑Recreation Center, giving supporters a chance to see the Beacons take on a Big Ten opponent early in the season.
Last year the squad finished second in the Missouri Valley Conference with a 21‑9 overall record and a 12‑4 mark in conference play, setting high expectations for another strong campaign.
Football’s Opening Matchup
The football team’s 2026 season begins with a home game against Lawrence Tech at Brown Field, marking the first chance for fans to see the new roster in action.
Later in the month, Valparaiso will host its Homecoming game against Butler on September 26, a tradition that draws large crowds and celebrates campus spirit.
Promotional schedules for both sports are now publicly available, allowing supporters to plan their attendance and stay updated on game times, broadcast information and special events.
