The Wisconsin Badgers volleyball program is raising season ticket prices for the 2026 season at the UW Field House, even as fans will get a slightly lighter home schedule. This marks another price adjustment for one of the most popular tickets in college sports.

According to details shared by UW officials, assigned seating sections will see increases ranging from $3 to $13 per ticket per match. When calculated across the entire season, that translates to a 6% to 42% jump in list prices for those premium sections. Meanwhile, general admission season tickets will be priced at $224 in 2026, or $16 per match—a slight adjustment from the $225 price tag (at $15 per match) in 2025.

Wisconsin deputy athletic director Mitchell Pinta explained that the increase reflects the program's sustained excellence under head coach Kelly Sheffield. "Kelly's team has proven time and time again their competitive excellence, and we want to make sure that we're continuing to invest in this program for the '26-27 season and beyond," Pinta said.

The Badgers have built a powerhouse reputation in women's volleyball, consistently drawing sellout crowds to the historic UW Field House. With a lighter home slate in 2026, the price hike underscores the high demand for tickets to see one of the nation's elite programs. For fans, this means securing a seat to watch Sheffield's squad will come at a premium, but the investment reflects the team's championship-caliber play and the electric atmosphere that has become synonymous with Badgers volleyball.
