Season tickets for Eastern Illinois University athletics are now available to renew and purchase, according to a June 3 announcement. Tickets are being offered for football, volleyball, and men’s and women’s basketball ahead of the upcoming 2026-27 seasons.

For football fans, season tickets are priced at $90 per person with a youth option available for $40.

Ticket holders will also receive a coupon for a free hot dog and drink at each game.

The men’s and women’s basketball teams will begin their seasons in early November at Groniger Arena. Reserved chairback seats are available at $180 per seat, while general admission season tickets cost $105. Faculty and staff can access discounted general admission tickets priced at $90.
